The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) is the awarding agency, and the funding will focus on strategies to prevent new HIV infections, increase knowledge of HIV status through expanded testing, improve treatment outcomes, and support healthcare workforce development. Key requirements include demonstrated experience managing US government funds over $7 million and implementing HIV programs across multiple countries. Applications are due by February 24, 2025, with awards expected by September 30, 2025.
