Opportunity Summary:
Training for States on Winnable Battles (CDC RFA DP08 8030401SUPP11) is a Centers for Disease Control and Prevention cooperative agreement opportunity designed to strengthen state-level leadership and capacity around fast-moving public health priorities. The central aim is to deliver practical training, develop and distribute educational materials, and provide hands-on technical assistance to leaders across all three key branches of state government: legislative, executive, and administrative. By focusing on these audiences, the program is structured to help states translate public health evidence into policy and operational decisions more quickly and effectively, particularly in areas where measurable improvements can be achieved in the near term.
The content focus aligns with CDC "Winnable Battles" style goals, emphasizing targeted issues where states can make concrete progress. The training and support are meant to help states reduce death and disability among adults related to tobacco use, slow the rate of growth of obesity by promoting better nutrition and increased physical activity, improve youth and adolescent health, and help communities build environments that support a culture of wellness and make healthy choices easier. In practice, this implies helping state decision-makers understand emerging challenges, evaluate policy options, coordinate across agencies, and implement strategies that can shift population health outcomes, not just through clinical approaches but through community and systems-level changes.
This opportunity was posted on August 25, 2011, with an application deadline of September 23, 2011, and it was later archived on October 23, 2011. The CDC anticipated making one award under this announcement, with an estimated total funding amount of $200,000. The award ceiling was also $200,000, and there was no stated award floor, meaning the final award amount could be up to the maximum depending on the approved scope of work. There was no cost sharing or matching requirement, which typically reduces barriers for eligible applicants and allows the funded organization to focus resources directly on program delivery rather than raising required match funds.
The funding instrument type is a cooperative agreement, which usually signals a more active partnership between CDC and the recipient than a standard grant. Under a cooperative agreement, CDC often provides substantial involvement such as guidance on program direction, access to technical expertise, coordination support, and oversight to ensure the work aligns with federal public health priorities. The funding activity category is health, and the CFDA number listed is 93.283, associated with CDC Investigations and Technical Assistance, indicating that the work is oriented toward applied support, capacity-building, and implementation assistance rather than basic research.
Eligibility is limited and specific. Applicants must be existing grantees under mechanism DP08-803 and must have a demonstrated ability to convene teams of state-level policymakers. That requirement reflects the nature of the project: success depends on the ability to bring together influential leaders and decision-makers, facilitate cross-branch collaboration, and create training experiences that fit the realities of state governance. The notice lists eligible applicants generally as "Others" with clarification provided in the eligibility text, reinforcing that this is not an open competition for all organizations but a targeted supplemental or companion opportunity for established partners already working under the DP08-803 mechanism.
