Opportunity Summary:
The Sudden Unexpected Infant Death Case Registry: Building Capacity (Module A) and Implementation (Module B) opportunity is a continuation cooperative agreement offered by the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (HHS-CDC). It is published under Funding Opportunity Number CDC RFA DP15-150602CONT16 and falls within the health funding activity category. The focus of the program is to support work connected to the Sudden Unexpected Infant Death (SUID) Case Registry, a public health surveillance and prevention effort aimed at improving how sudden and unexpected infant deaths are identified, investigated, reviewed, and ultimately prevented through better data and coordinated systems.
This funding opportunity is structured around two related components: Module A (Building Capacity) and Module B (Implementation). In practical terms, Module A centers on helping jurisdictions strengthen the foundational infrastructure needed to run a high-quality SUID case registry program. That typically includes developing or improving the ability to identify cases consistently, collect and manage standardized information, coordinate across agencies involved in infant death investigations and reviews, and ensure that case review processes are in place and functioning. Module B emphasizes putting the registry fully into operation, meaning that jurisdictions use established processes to conduct regular case identification and abstraction, carry out multidisciplinary case reviews, and submit complete, timely, and high-quality data that can be used to understand patterns, risk factors, and prevention opportunities.
Because this is a cooperative agreement rather than a standard grant, the CDC is expected to have substantial involvement in the funded work. Cooperative agreements generally mean recipients carry out the on-the-ground activities, while CDC provides ongoing programmatic guidance, technical assistance, and coordination to ensure the work aligns with national standards and registry requirements. This structure is common for surveillance registries and complex multi-agency public health initiatives where consistent methods and data quality are essential across participating sites.
The award is listed as a continuation opportunity, which signals it is intended for recipients already engaged in an earlier project period or prior award cycle tied to the same program. Continuation opportunities typically focus on sustaining and expanding existing work rather than launching brand-new projects from scratch, and eligibility is often limited or specialized. The eligibility field is broadly labeled as "Others," with clarification referenced in an "Additional Information on Eligibility" section (not included in the text provided), which usually spells out exactly which entities may apply, such as specific states, local health departments, tribal entities, territories, universities, or other organizations already participating in the registry.
Key administrative details included in the listing are that the CFDA number is 93.946 and the application closing date was April 4, 2016 (both the original and current closing date match). The opportunity was created and posted on February 3, 2016. The award ceiling is shown as 0 and the number of expected awards is not specified in the provided data, which often happens in continuation notices or listings where budget amounts may be defined in related documentation, constrained by prior-year allocations, or determined through continuation funding decisions rather than an open competitive range.
Overall, the opportunity supports jurisdictions in either strengthening the core capabilities required to participate effectively in the SUID Case Registry (Module A) or operating and expanding full registry implementation activities (Module B). The larger public health intent is to improve the completeness and quality of information about sudden unexpected infant deaths so that states and communities can better understand why these deaths occur and use evidence-informed strategies to reduce preventable infant mortality.
