About this opportunity
The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention is soliciting applications for cooperative agreements funding viral hepatitis education, awareness, and capacity building for communities and providers, with a forecast announcement posted July 9, 2026 and no specified application due date in this notice.
Eligible applicants include 501(c)(3) and non-501(c)(3) nonprofits, city and county governments, tribal governments (federally recognized and non-federally recognized), state governments, special district governments, independent school districts, public and Indian housing authorities, higher education institutions (public and private), small businesses, and for-profit organizations. Applicants may submit separate applications for Part A (Community Education, Awareness, and Capacity Building) and Part B (Professional Education and Training), or apply for both components.
Part A focuses on leading and growing existing coalitions serving populations disproportionately affected by hepatitis B and/or C, providing technical assistance to coalition members for educational outreach, and building capacity for testing and treatment linkage in settings serving affected populations. Part B addresses professional education and training to increase healthcare professionals' competence in evaluating and treating hepatitis B and C infections.
The cooperative agreement period of performance runs up to five years with an initial 12-month budget period, subject to availability of funds and satisfactory recipient progress. Recipients may pursue non-competitive continuation awards. Funds support personnel, travel, supplies, services, prevention and control program activities, testing and linkage expansion, provider training, and education. Recipients may not use funds for clinical care and generally may not purchase furniture or equipment unless identified and approved in the budget. Recipients must perform substantial programmatic roles rather than serve as funding conduits.
Awards fall under Assistance Listing 93.270 (Viral Hepatitis Prevention and Control). The program emphasizes populations disproportionately affected by chronic hepatitis B and C infections.
Forecast synopsis
In alignment with CDC's viral hepatitis strategic goals and current epidemiology, this Notice of Funding Opportunity (NOFO) will address the need for increasing awareness of viral hepatitis prevention, testing, and treatment options among populations disproportionately affected by hepatitis B and/or hepatitis C virus infections. The priority populations' needs will also be addressed by increasing healthcare professionals' competence in the evaluation and treatment of hepatitis B and/or hepatitis C virus infection. The outcomes of this NOFO will be achieved through two separate components. An organization may apply for one component or both components by submitting two separate applications, one for Part A and one for Part B.
- Part A: Community Education, Awareness, and Capacity Building, and
- Part B: Professional Education and Training.
Strategies and activities conducted under each part may contribute to more people with hepatitis B and hepatitis C able to make informed health decisions and obtain proper care and treatment which can lead to decreased morbidity and mortality from hepatitis B and hepatitis C.
Part A strategies and activities focus on 1) leading, maintaining, and growing an existing coalition of public and private organizations serving populations disproportionately affected by hepatitis B and/or hepatitis C, 2) providing technical assistance and training to coalition members to deliver hepatitis B and/or hepatitis C educational outreach to disproportionately affected populations, and 3) building capacity of coalition members to conduct hepatitis B and/or hepatitis C virus infection testing and linkage to treatment in settings serving disproportionately affected populations.
Short-term outcomes include increasing capacity of the coalition to expand services to a larger number of populations disproportionately affected by hepatitis B and hepatitis C, increasing capacity of coalition members to deliver hepatitis B and/or hepatitis C educational outreach to disproportionately affected populations, and increasing testing for hepatitis B and/or hepatitis C virus infection among disproportionately affected populations.
Part B strategies and activities focus on 1) providing free comprehensive web-based, accurate, on-demand resources and trainings for healthcare professionals for hepatitis B and hepatitis C, and associated continuing education credits, and 2) actively marketing and promoting training and resources.
