PS25-0008 medical monitoring project

The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention awarded a $2.954 million cooperative agreement to the Washington State Department of Health on September 30, 2025, under the HIV Prevention and Surveillance Activities—Health Department Based program (CFDA 93.940) for medical monitoring and HIV prevention and surveillance work through September 29, 2030.

The award supports HIV behavioral surveillance, sexually transmitted disease surveillance network (SSuN) activities, and sexually transmitted disease prevention evaluation projects. The Washington State Department of Health, based in Washington, passes funding to King County (doing business as Public Health-Seattle & King County) as a sub-grantee. King County's sub-award, initially obligated November 24, 2025, funds collaborative work on HIV behavioral surveillance, SSuN, and sexually transmitted disease prevention evaluation in partnership with the Infectious Disease Assessment Unit. A subsequent sub-award modification dated June 24, 2026, added carryforward funds from the January–June 2025 funding period, increased allocation for hepatitis surveillance to $75,000, and added medical monitoring project tasks.

The program assists states and political subdivisions in establishing and maintaining HIV prevention and surveillance programs, continuing and strengthening effective HIV programs, and measuring and evaluating HIV and AIDS incidence and prevalence throughout the United States. Projects are supported for one to five years; initial awards typically fund a 12-month budget period with potential non-competitive continuation subject to satisfactory recipient progress and federal funding availability.
