About this opportunity
The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) is seeking applicants for a $2 billion cooperative agreement over 5 years to strengthen vaccine-preventable disease prevention and response. This funding opportunity builds upon the Vaccines for Children (VFC) and Section 317 Programs, with a focus on seven priority strategies: strengthening program infrastructure, increasing vaccine access, improving vaccination equity, promoting vaccine confidence, enhancing data/evaluation, strengthening partner support, and enhancing response readiness. Eligible applicants include state/territorial health departments, local health agencies serving populations over 1.4 million, and U.S. territories/Freely Associated States. Recipients must implement core activities, rapid small-scale outbreak response ($250,000/year), and large-scale outbreak response ($3 million/year, approved but unfunded). Key requirements include maintaining immunization information systems, conducting provider site visits, implementing quality improvement programs, and supporting adult immunization activities.
The funding opportunity will provide an average of $6.06 million per award, with a total of 66 awards expected. The project period is 5 years, with an expected start date of July 1, 2025 and an application due date of March 13, 2025. Activities will take place nationwide, as this cooperative agreement supports state, local, and territorial immunization programs.
Synopsis
CDC's Immunization Services Division (ISD) Notice of Funding Opportunity (NOFO) continues and builds upon the ongoing work of the Section 317 and Vaccines for Children (VFC) Programs. These programs remain central to the U.S. immunization program infrastructure to achieve high vaccination coverage, low incidence of vaccine-preventable disease (VPD) and maintain or improve response to vaccine-preventable public health threats. The VFC Program provides vaccines to children whose parents or guardians may not be able to afford them. Serving as an important contributor to health equity, the program helps support fair and just opportunities for all children to get their recommended vaccinations on schedule and achieve their highest level of health. Section 317 of the Public Health Service Act helps meet the costs of prevention health services, and 317 priorities include preserving immunization infrastructure, maintaining vaccine supply as a safety net for uninsured adults, and responding to VPD outbreaks. Activities in this funding opportunity are included within the following seven priority strategies. • Strengthen Program Infrastructure and Management. • Increase Vaccine Access. • Improve Vaccination Equity. • Promote Vaccine Confidence and Demand. • Enhance Data and Evaluation.There are three components in this NOFO, and you are required to apply to all three components. • Component 1: Core. • Component 2: Rapid small-scale response to VPD outbreaks or other public health emergencies (funded). • Component 3: Rapid large-scale response to VPD outbreaks or other public health emergencies (approved but unfunded).
