About this program
The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention's Division of Diabetes Translation funds diabetes prevention and control programs through cooperative agreements and project grants with a mission to prevent diabetes, its complications, and associated burden, with the most recent award disbursed September 30, 2025 (Assistance Listing 93.988).
The program has maintained consistent activity over the past five years with 11 awards in 2025, 18 in 2024, 26 in 2023, 3 in 2022, and 1 in 2021, reflecting a portfolio of 350 total awards spanning from 2001 to the present. Combined federal dollars obligated total $574.1 million across the program's lifetime, with recipients contributing an additional $1.1 million in non-federal match, indicating minimal mandatory cost-share.
Funded activities encompass diabetes surveillance systems for youth and young adults, community-clinical linkage models for diabetes management, lifestyle change implementation research networks, school-based health extension programs, behavioral risk factor surveillance across states and territories, and equity-focused interventions addressing prediabetes and diabetes prevention among Black, Hispanic, rural, and low-income priority populations. Representative awards include a cooperative agreement to evaluate the Health Extension for Diabetes Program as a community-clinical linkage model ($700,000), a lifestyle change implementation research network at UMass Chan ($1.51 million), and a nationwide diabetes surveillance system for youth and young adults ($500,000). Recent work also emphasizes social determinants of health screening, culturally tailored interventions, and workforce capacity building in diabetes care.
The portfolio is predominantly Cooperative Agreements (35% of awards, 121 total), followed by Project Grants (47%, 163 awards) and Block Grants (19%, 66 awards). All funding originates from CDC through its Division of Diabetes Translation; the top-funded activities by federal dollars obligated include statewide programs and coordinating centers ranging from $2 million to $15.3 million per award.
No grant opportunities are currently open with posted deadlines. The most recent opportunities closed in March 2023: CDC-RFA-DP-23-0020 (Strategic Approach to Advancing Health Equity for Priority Populations with or at Risk for Diabetes—Component A, B, and C) and CDC-RFA-DP-23-0021 (Subject Matter Expertise, Training, and Technical Assistance companion award), both supporting five-year implementation cycles that extended through June 2028. Check Grants.gov for the next NOFO cycle and preapplication coordination requirements; projects typically run 1 to 5 years with potential non-competitive continuation funding contingent on satisfactory progress and federal availability.
