About this program
The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) funds investigations and technical assistance to help state and local health authorities and other organizations control communicable diseases, chronic diseases, and preventable health conditions under Assistance Listing 93.283, with the most recent awards issued on September 30, 2026.

The portfolio spans 16 distinct federal funders, though all fall under the CDC parent organization.
