About this program
The Department of Health and Human Services Centers for Disease Control and Prevention administers the Nutrition and Physical Activity Program (CFDA 93.756), which funds obesity prevention and chronic disease control through nutrition and physical activity initiatives, with the most recent grant awards issued September 30, 2013.
This program is not currently active. The grant award portfolio contains only five awards, all disbursed on a single date in 2013, with no grant opportunities posted since then. No recent activity supports continued pursuit.
When active, the program funded state and local nutrition and physical activity initiatives including multi-state networks to improve food environments in schools, partnerships addressing obesity through environmental and policy supports, and local park and recreation agency programs to increase physical activity and improve nutrition access. Funded work encompassed state programs, applied research, surveillance, training and technical assistance, intervention development and evaluation, and policy and environmental change.
The portfolio was predominantly Cooperative Agreements (80 percent, four awards) with a smaller share of Project Grants (20 percent, one award). All five awards came from the CDC, with $1.1 million obligated across four Cooperative Agreements and $200 thousand obligated for the single Project Grant. Combined federal dollars obligated totaled $1.3 million.
Representative awards include a Cooperative Agreement for "Healthy Places for Kids to Eat," a 10-state network team initiative funded at $365,260, completion slated for September 2016; a Cooperative Agreement supporting local park and recreation agencies to increase physical activity and improve nutrition, funded at $201,800; and a Project Grant for a national innovation partnership addressing obesity through environmental supports, funded at $200,000.
No recent grant opportunities are posted under this Assistance Listing. The thirteen-year gap between the most recent award and today, combined with the absence of posted solicitations, indicates the program has been inactive and does not represent a current funding opportunity.
