Opportunity Summary:
This grant opportunity (CDC RFA PS09-991) is a Centers for Disease Control and Prevention cooperative agreement under the President's Emergency Plan for AIDS Relief (PEPFAR) focused on strengthening HIV services in specific high-need areas of Nairobi, Kenya. The program centers on supporting implementation and expansion of high quality HIV prevention, care, and antiretroviral treatment (ART) at both facility and community levels, with particular emphasis on the Eastern and Kibera slums of Nairobi and on services linked to Coptic Hospital affiliated sites and Bomu Clinic affiliated sites. In practical terms, the CDC is looking to fund partners that can help sustain and scale up comprehensive HIV programs in densely populated, underserved communities where barriers like poverty, mobility, stigma, and limited access to continuous healthcare often drive higher risk and poorer outcomes.
The core purpose of the award is to provide technical assistance and funding to local organizations in Kenya so they can continue existing HIV work and expand the reach, quality, and continuity of services. While the short summary does not list specific required activities, the framing makes clear that the CDC expects supported programs to deliver a full continuum of HIV services: prevention efforts to reduce new infections, clinical and community-based care for people living with HIV, and the delivery and management of ART. Because the funding instrument is a cooperative agreement, recipients should generally expect substantial involvement from CDC in areas like program strategy, technical guidance, monitoring and evaluation expectations, and alignment with PEPFAR priorities and national HIV plans.
Funding is described in two ways in the published source text. The forecast summary notes that approximately $15.5 million was expected to be available to support around five awards, with an estimated funding date prior to September 30, 2009. The archived grants.gov record also lists an estimated total funding amount of $40.5 million and anticipates around four awards, with an unusually high listed award ceiling of $40.5 million and a floor of $20.625 million. Taken together, these figures suggest that applicants needed to rely on the full announcement on grants.gov for the authoritative budget structure, expected number of awards, and project period details, since summary fields and later archival metadata can sometimes reflect updates, re-posting, or data normalization rather than the original competition's exact amounts.
Eligibility is listed as unrestricted, meaning the opportunity was broadly open to many entity types, as long as any additional eligibility conditions in the full announcement were met. There is no cost sharing or matching requirement indicated, which typically lowers the barrier to participation for local organizations that may not be able to contribute significant non-federal resources. The activity category is health, and the CFDA number is 93.067 (Global AIDS), placing it squarely within the U.S. government global HIV response portfolio.
The opportunity was originally posted April 14, 2009, with an original closing date of May 29, 2009, and an estimated award timing before the end of September 2009. The record shown is archived, and it also displays later system dates (including a much later "current closing date" and archive date), which indicates the listing was preserved for reference after the competition ended rather than remaining an active funding call. For complete program requirements, scope of work, reporting expectations, and application instructions, applicants were directed to consult the full announcement on grants.gov, with the CDC Procurement and Grants Office contact (PGOTIM, 770-488-2700) provided for assistance accessing the materials.
