Opportunity Summary:
This funding opportunity, CDC RFA PS10-1004, is a discretionary U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) cooperative agreement under CFDA 93.067 (Global AIDS) focused on Kenya. The grant is framed under PEPFAR and is aimed at supporting the implementation and expansion of HIV prevention, care, and treatment services at National Teaching and Referral Hospitals (NTRHs) in the Republic of Kenya, positioning these facilities as Centers of Excellence. In practical terms, the opportunity is designed to strengthen high-level referral hospitals so they can deliver high-quality HIV services, model best practices for the rest of the health system, and support national scale-up through clinical leadership, training capacity, and improved systems.
The stated program purpose emphasizes tailoring assistance to country context: the FOA’s intent is to assess needs and then design a customized package of support that fits within the host nation’s strategic plan. While the announcement text is brief, this kind of language typically signals that applicants should align proposed activities with Kenya’s national HIV strategy and existing PEPFAR priorities, rather than proposing stand-alone projects. Because the focus is on national teaching and referral hospitals, the work would likely involve strengthening advanced clinical care and systems that are commonly centered in tertiary facilities, such as comprehensive HIV treatment services, management of complex cases, linkages to laboratory and diagnostic services, referral networks, infection prevention and control, quality improvement, and the training/mentorship functions that teaching hospitals are expected to provide.
Funding is limited and competitive. The notice indicates approximately USD 3.5 million expected to be available in fiscal year 2010 to support 1 to 2 awards, with an estimated total funding figure listed as USD 4.5 million. Individual awards are expected to range from a floor of USD 500,000 to a ceiling of USD 1,500,000. The estimated award (or funding) date is April 1, 2010. The funding instrument is a cooperative agreement, which generally means CDC anticipates having substantial involvement in programmatic direction, oversight, and collaboration during implementation, more so than under a typical grant.
The eligible applicant pool is broad and includes many types of U.S. and non-U.S. entities that commonly participate in U.S. government health funding, including state, county, city/township, and special district governments; public and state-controlled institutions of higher education; private institutions of higher education; nonprofits with and without 501(c)(3) status (excluding higher education institutions in those nonprofit categories); small businesses; for-profit organizations (including those other than small businesses); and Native American tribal governments and tribal organizations. The FOA specifies no cost-sharing or matching requirement, so applicants are not required to contribute a defined percentage of project costs from non-federal sources.
Key dates in the posting history are also provided. The opportunity was posted July 9, 2009, with a creation date of September 23, 2009. The original closing date was September 9, 2009, later extended to a current closing date of October 21, 2009, and an archive date of October 23, 2009. Applicants were directed to consult the full announcement on Grants.gov for complete program details, requirements, and submission instructions, which likely include the application components, technical approach expectations, evaluation criteria, reporting requirements, and any specific Kenya- and hospital-focused priorities that are not spelled out in the summary text.
For administrative support, the listed contact for difficulty accessing the full announcement is CDC’s Procurement and Grants Office Technical Information Management Section (PGO TIMS) at 770-488-2700.
