Opportunity Summary:

This funding opportunity is a Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) cooperative agreement under the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) that provides supplemental funding for technical assistance supporting the President's Emergency Plan for AIDS Relief (PEPFAR). The focus is on strengthening HIV prevention, care, and treatment programs, while also addressing other infectious diseases that affect people living with HIV. In practice, this kind of technical assistance typically aims to improve how partner countries and implementing organizations plan, deliver, monitor, and scale high-impact HIV services, and to reinforce the systems that make those services sustainable.

The opportunity is identified by the title "Technical Assistance in Support of HIV Prevention, Care, and Treatment Programs and Other Infectious Diseases that Impact HIV Infected Patients in Support of the President's Emergency Plan for AIDS Relief" and the funding opportunity number "CDC RFA PS09-904SUPP." It is categorized as discretionary funding and uses a cooperative agreement as the funding instrument. A cooperative agreement generally indicates substantial programmatic involvement by CDC beyond standard grant oversight, such as collaboration on work planning, technical direction, performance monitoring, and alignment with PEPFAR strategies and CDC priorities.

This is explicitly a supplemental funding action, meaning it is not a standalone, open competition designed to establish a new program from scratch. Supplemental opportunities are commonly used to add funds to an existing award or expand the scope, reach, or intensity of ongoing work under an existing cooperative agreement. The listing shows an expected number of awards of 1, which strongly suggests a single recipient, often an existing grantee, selected to carry out additional or expanded technical assistance activities tied to an established CDC/PEPFAR project.

The funding activity category is Health, and the CFDA (Catalog of Federal Domestic Assistance) number associated with the opportunity is 93.067, which corresponds to programs supporting global HIV/AIDS activities. The notice lists an award ceiling of 0, which typically indicates that a specific maximum amount is not stated in the summary field or is determined through internal allocation for the supplemental action rather than through a published cap. The practical takeaway is that the amount may be defined in the full funding announcement or negotiated as part of the supplemental award process rather than being publicly capped in the summary.

Eligibility is listed as "Others," with direction to consult the full announcement's additional eligibility text for clarification. In many supplemental CDC opportunities, eligibility is limited to current recipients under the parent cooperative agreement or a narrow class of entities already engaged in the referenced program. That restriction is consistent with the "supplemental funding" designation and the expectation of a single award.

Key dates indicate the opportunity was created and posted on November 24, 2015, and had an application closing date of January 24, 2016 (with the original and current closing dates matching, implying no extension). The narrow window and the supplemental nature further reinforce that this was likely intended for an existing partner that could rapidly implement additional technical assistance within an ongoing PEPFAR-supported framework.

Overall, the opportunity is best understood as CDC providing additional resources to enhance or extend technical assistance that improves the performance and impact of HIV programs supported by PEPFAR, including related infectious disease interventions that matter for HIV-infected patients. The cooperative agreement structure implies close CDC collaboration to ensure the supplemental work aligns with evolving PEPFAR goals, improves service quality, supports data-driven decision-making, and strengthens program delivery systems for HIV and co-occurring infectious disease challenges.
