Opportunity Information: Apply for CDC RFA GH16 1700
This grant opportunity, titled "Supporting the Implementation and Expansion of High Quality, Sustainable and Comprehensive HIV Prevention, Care and Treatment Programs in the Central Region and Laikipia County of the Republic of Kenya under the President's Emergency Plan for AIDS Relief (PEPFAR)," was issued by the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) under Funding Opportunity Number CDC RFA GH16-1700. It is a discretionary health funding opportunity structured as a cooperative agreement, meaning the CDC would typically expect substantial involvement in program planning, monitoring, and technical collaboration rather than simply providing funds with minimal oversight. The assistance listing (CFDA) number associated with the program is 93.067. The opportunity was created on December 4, 2015, and originally closed on February 4, 2016. The anticipated award structure listed one expected award, with an award ceiling of $10,000,000.
The core purpose of the program is to strengthen and expand comprehensive HIV services in Kenya, specifically targeting the Central Region and Laikipia County, with an emphasis on reaching general populations as well as key and priority populations. The main public health goals described include increasing knowledge of HIV status (primarily through expanded, effective testing approaches), preventing new HIV infections among both adults and children, ensuring access to high-quality HIV care services including antiretroviral therapy (ART), and achieving viral suppression at scale. These elements align with the standard HIV service cascade: diagnose people living with HIV, link them to care, initiate and maintain effective treatment, and retain them in care long enough to reach and sustain viral suppression. The stated ultimate impact is to decrease HIV incidence and reduce HIV-associated illness and deaths in Kenya by improving both prevention coverage and treatment outcomes.
A key point in the provided notice is that the text referenced is an amendment issued for informational purposes only. The amendment explicitly states that CDC is not accepting new applications for award, so it should be understood as an update to an already-posted or already-closed opportunity rather than an open call for new proposals. The specific reason for the amendment is to add or clarify language related to "HIV epidemic control" under a section described as "Other National Public Health Priorities and Strategies." In practical terms, that kind of addition generally signals an emphasis on using surveillance and program data to focus resources, rapidly identify and close gaps in testing and treatment coverage, and drive down new infections in a measurable way, consistent with epidemic control frameworks often used in PEPFAR-supported programs.
Eligibility for the opportunity is described very broadly and includes many types of U.S. and non-U.S. entities. Governmental entities listed as eligible include state, county, city or township governments, special district governments, regional organizations, and U.S. territories or possessions. Educational institutions are included, such as public and state-controlled institutions of higher education, private institutions of higher education, independent school districts, historically Black colleges and universities, Hispanic-serving institutions, and Alaska Native and Native Hawaiian-serving institutions. Tribal eligibility spans federally recognized tribal governments, other tribal organizations, tribally designated organizations, and tribal epidemiology centers, along with urban Indian health organizations. The eligibility list also includes public housing authorities/Indian housing authorities, nonprofits with and without IRS 501(c)(3) status (excluding institutions of higher education in those nonprofit categories), for-profit organizations (including small businesses), and even individuals. Importantly for an international HIV program in Kenya, eligibility explicitly includes non-domestic (non-U.S.) entities and also calls out ministries of health, research institutions performing non-research activities, colleges and universities, community-based organizations, faith-based organizations, hospitals, and small, minority-, and women-owned businesses, plus a catch-all category indicating that other organizations may also be eligible.
Taken together, the opportunity is best understood as a large, single-award cooperative agreement intended to support a comprehensive package of HIV prevention, testing, treatment, and viral suppression activities in specific Kenyan geographies under PEPFAR, with CDC providing technical partnership. The amendment note is mainly a programmatic clarification rather than a reopening of competition, and its emphasis on HIV epidemic control suggests the program priorities include measurable progress toward reducing transmission through improved diagnosis, treatment coverage, and sustained viral suppression across the targeted populations.Apply for CDC RFA GH16 1700
