About this program

The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) under the Department of Health and Human Services operates the Prevention Public Health Fund: Viral Hepatitis Prevention program (CFDA 93.736), with the most recent grant award dated September 30, 2012—over fourteen years ago.

The program funds activities to reduce viral hepatitis transmission through increased awareness and testing among populations at risk for chronic HCV and HBV infection, linkage of infected individuals to clinical care, and capacity building within health departments and community health organizations. Funded activities include expanding HCV and HBV screening initiatives, developing and disseminating training and educational materials for healthcare professionals in both public and private sectors, and supporting state and local health departments in connecting infected persons to community health centers, clinics serving injection drug users, and other treatment settings. The program also supports monitoring, evaluation, and technical assistance.

Grant awards are predominantly Cooperative Agreements (67% of awards) with a smaller share of Project Grants (33%). The CDC is the sole funding source across the program. Combined federal dollars obligated total $292 thousand across three awards, all disbursed in the single 2012 cohort. Recent representative awards include a Cooperative Agreement funding HBV testing expansion and linkage to care targeting Sacramento's foreign-born Asian population ($100,000 federal share) and a Cooperative Agreement supporting early identification and linkage to care for hepatitis-infected persons ($192,500 federal share).

No recent grant opportunities or awards have been posted since September 2012. The program shows no documented activity over the past fourteen years and should be considered inactive for current business development purposes.

Objective and description

Objective

Program activities under this funding will allow for CDC to partner with multiple organizations to benefit individuals by substantially reducing viral hepatitis transmission, identifing those that are chronically infected and linking infected individuals with treatment if appropriate. Specifically, the program activities may include but are not limited to: 1. Increasing the proportion of persons living with HCV and HBV who are aware of their infection and referred for prevention and clinical care services. 2. Expanding and improving efforts to develop and disseminate viral hepatitis training and educational materials targeting the public and private sector health care professionals to build capacity to assess, test and medically manage populations at risk for chronic HCV and HBV infection. 3. Supporting state and local health departments and other organizations in linking HCV infected persons to community health centers, clinics serving injection drug users, and other health organizations seeing individuals potentially infected with chronic viral hepatitis. 4. Additional support will be provided for program monitoring, evaluation, capacity building, and technical assistance.
