Opportunity Information: Apply for CDC RFA OT18 18020301SUPP20
The grant opportunity titled "Strengthening Public Health Systems and Services through National Partnerships to Improve and Protect the Nation's Health" is a CDC discretionary funding notice that provides supplemental (additional) funding to a specific group of organizations: those that were already funded under Funding Strategy 1 of the earlier CDC announcement CDC-RFA-OT18-1802. In practical terms, this is not an open competition for brand-new applicants. It is meant to extend or enhance previously funded work by allowing existing recipients to propose FY20 project plans tied to the same target population category and target population description they were originally funded to serve in FY18. The overall aim is to deepen national public health capacity through partnerships that help public health agencies and systems function better, faster, and more consistently across the country.
The purpose of the supplemental funds is to strengthen the nation's public health infrastructure and improve the delivery of essential public health services through capacity-building assistance (CBA). That emphasis on CBA signals that the funded organizations are expected to provide practical support that improves performance and readiness across the public health system, such as training, technical assistance, strengthening workforce skills, improving coordination and connectivity among partners, and helping agencies modernize or standardize approaches that support core public health functions. The language in the notice highlights building a public health system that is competent, current, and connected, which typically refers to having a skilled workforce, up-to-date methods and tools, and strong linkages among national organizations, health departments, and other stakeholders that together deliver public health services.
This opportunity is administered by the Department of Health and Human Services, Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), specifically within OSTLTS (Office of State, Tribal, Local and Territorial Support). The funding instrument is a cooperative agreement, meaning CDC is expected to have substantial involvement in the funded work compared to a standard grant. Cooperative agreements commonly involve ongoing collaboration, shared planning, and federal input on implementation, performance monitoring, and deliverables, especially when the work is intended to support national infrastructure and consistent system improvement.
Eligibility, as listed in the source data, includes a wide range of governmental, academic, and nonprofit entities (state, county, and city/township governments; public and private institutions of higher education; and nonprofits with or without 501(c)(3) status). However, the most important eligibility condition is embedded in the description: only organizations that previously received awards under the specified prior funding strategy are eligible to apply for this supplemental funding. In other words, while many organization types are generally eligible in CDC programs, this specific supplemental announcement is limited to prior awardees who are continuing aligned work and submitting FY20 project plans under their previously approved target population scope.
Key administrative details include the opportunity number (CDC RFA OT18 18020301SUPP20), an original posting/creation date of April 14, 2020, and an application deadline of May 14, 2020, with electronic submissions due by 11:59 p.m. Eastern Time on the due date. The program is categorized under health and is associated with CFDA numbers 93.421 and 93.430. The notice lists an award ceiling of $15,000,000 and anticipates approximately 40 awards, indicating a sizable national portfolio of supplemental awards designed to reinforce public health system capabilities through established national partnership organizations and their capacity-building networks.Apply for CDC RFA OT18 18020301SUPP20
