Grant awards under this program have remained active and steady. The portfolio spans 936 total awards from 2001 to September 2025, with annual award volume averaging around 54 awards in recent years—82 in 2021, declining to 34 in 2025. Combined federal dollars obligated total $17.21 billion across the portfolio lifetime.

Funding is concentrated almost entirely within CDC; approximately 928 of 936 awards (99 percent) flow through the CDC National Center for HIV, Viral Hepatitis, STD, and TB Prevention.

Awards typically range from a 12-month budget period with performance periods up to five years, subject to availability of funds and satisfactory progress. Non-federal cost-share contributions total $310 million against $17.21 billion in federal obligated dollars.
