Opportunity Information: Apply for CDC RFA GH13 133104CONT16

This funding opportunity is a continuation award from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) focused on strengthening Haiti's health care system under the President's Emergency Plan for AIDS Relief (PEPFAR). The opportunity is titled "Clinical and Public Health Curriculum Development, Training and Information Systems Support for the Haiti Health Care System under PEPFAR" and is issued as a continuation notice rather than an open competition. In practical terms, it is meant to keep an existing, ongoing body of work funded and operating, rather than starting a new project or bringing in new organizations.

The notice makes clear that eligibility is restricted to organizations that were previously funded under the earlier CDC funding announcement GH13-1130, which carried the same program focus. That means new applicants are not invited to apply; instead, the continuation funding is intended only for the existing grantee(s) already performing this work. The opportunity category is explicitly labeled "Continuation," reinforcing that this is a follow-on funding action to maintain program momentum and avoid disruption in support to Haiti's health sector activities tied to HIV and broader public health capacity.

The award mechanism is a cooperative agreement, which typically indicates an active partnership between CDC and the recipient organization. Under cooperative agreements, CDC generally has substantial involvement, such as providing technical guidance, collaborating on implementation approaches, and supporting monitoring and evaluation efforts. The activity category is listed as Health, and the CFDA number associated with this funding is 93.067, which aligns with CDC global HIV/AIDS and related public health efforts supported under PEPFAR frameworks.

The program scope, as described in the title, centers on three connected areas: (1) clinical and public health curriculum development, (2) training, and (3) information systems support for Haiti's health care system. Although the brief synopsis does not list detailed tasks, those elements commonly include updating or creating standardized curricula for pre-service and in-service health workers, strengthening the training pipeline for clinicians and public health personnel, and supporting data and information systems that help the health sector track services, outcomes, and program performance. In a PEPFAR context, these efforts are usually aimed at improving the quality and continuity of HIV-related prevention, care, and treatment services while also reinforcing the broader health system that supports them.

Administratively, the funding opportunity number is CDC RFA GH13 133104CONT16. The opportunity lists an original closing date of March 21, 2016, and an expected number of awards of 1, which fits the continuation-only nature of the announcement. The award ceiling is shown as 0, which often means the ceiling is either not publicly stated in the notice, determined by the continuation budget process, or controlled through internal funding allocations rather than a competitively announced maximum.

Overall, this announcement is best understood as a formal vehicle for CDC to extend funding to an existing partner to continue work that supports Haiti's health workforce development and health information systems in alignment with PEPFAR goals. It is not a general solicitation, but a targeted continuation intended to sustain ongoing capacity-building efforts already underway under the prior GH13-1130 award.
