Opportunity Summary:
This funding opportunity, titled "Surveillance Program Announcement Behavioral Risk Factor Surveillance System," is a CDC cooperative agreement posted on November 16, 2011 and originally due on January 13, 2012, with an archive date of February 12, 2012. It sits within the CDC Office of Surveillance, Epidemiology, and Laboratory Services (OSELS), specifically the Public Health Surveillance Program Office (PHSPO), and is focused on supporting Behavioral Risk Factor Surveillance System (BRFSS) activities in Pacific jurisdictions. The BRFSS is a well-known public health surveillance approach used to collect and analyze data on health-related risk behaviors, chronic health conditions, and use of preventive services, which public health agencies rely on to track trends and guide policy and program decisions.
The award mechanism is a cooperative agreement, meaning the CDC typically has substantial involvement beyond simply providing funds, often through technical assistance, guidance on surveillance standards, and coordination to ensure data quality and comparability across jurisdictions. The opportunity is categorized as continuation funding, and it is explicitly limited to recipients that were previously awarded under the earlier related announcement (CDC RFA SO11-1102). In practical terms, this is not an open competition for new applicants; it is designed to continue established BRFSS work already underway with existing grantees rather than create new projects or bring new organizations into the program.
The CDC anticipated making about 10 awards under this continuation announcement. The funding is associated with CFDA numbers 93.283 (CDC Investigations and Technical Assistance) and 93.988 (Cooperative Agreements for State-Based Diabetes Control Programs and Evaluation of Surveillance Systems), reflecting the surveillance and technical assistance nature of the work and its relevance to chronic disease monitoring and evaluation. There is no cost sharing or matching requirement, so recipients were not expected to contribute non-federal matching funds as a condition of receiving the award.
Eligibility is restricted to "others" as clarified in the announcement text, but the key eligibility condition is that applicants must already be grantees funded under the predecessor BRFSS surveillance program announcement. The overall purpose is to sustain and support ongoing surveillance capacity in the specified jurisdictions, ensuring continuity in data collection, analysis, and reporting so that public health leaders can keep using timely, reliable behavioral risk factor and chronic disease-related data for planning, evaluation, and response.
For applicants or recipients needing help obtaining or accessing the full announcement, the CDC provided a point of contact through CDCPGO at 770-488-2700 and via email at pgotim@cdc.gov.
