About this opportunity
The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) is forecasting a cooperative agreement to optimize an existing web-based ordering portal and distribution program to provide at least 1.5 million HIV and other STI self-tests to communities with high HIV burden, with no application deadline specified in this forecast notice.
Eligible applicants include 501(c)(3) nonprofits, non-501(c)(3) nonprofits, private higher education institutions, public higher education institutions, and for-profit organizations. The opportunity operates under CFDA 93.940 (HIV Prevention and Surveillance Activities–Health Department Based), a program historically dominated by cooperative agreements (87 percent of awards) with typical individual awards ranging from $489 thousand to $3.7 million and project periods of one to five years. Initial awards fund the first 12-month budget period; subsequent continuation is non-competitive contingent on satisfactory progress and available funding.
The program seeks to increase awareness of HIV and other STI infection, prevent new infections, decrease transmission, and improve health and well-being of test users. Evaluation criteria prioritize satisfactory progress toward project objectives, specific and measurable objectives aligned with National HIV Prevention Goals, appropriateness of proposed operational changes, robust evaluation plans, and available funding. Recipients must retain records for three years beyond the award period or until audit findings are resolved.
This forecast represents the CDC's stated intent; a full NOFO with explicit deadlines, award amounts, and cost-share requirements will follow. The prior competitive solicitation (CDC-RFA-PS-24-0047) closed April 29, 2024.
Forecast synopsis

The use of the program's HIV and other STI self-tests and of resources for treatment and preventive services will increase awareness of HIV and other STI infection, prevent new infections, decrease HIV and other STI transmission, and improve overall health and well-being of users.
