Opportunity Information: Apply for CDC RFA GH16 1607
This funding opportunity, titled "Building Capacity to Deliver High Quality HIV Prevention, Care and Treatment Services for Key Populations and People Living with HIV in the Caribbean Region under PEPFAR," is a CDC cooperative agreement focused on strengthening national HIV programs across the Caribbean. The core public health problem it targets is that HIV in the region is largely concentrated among key populations, particularly men who have sex with men (MSM), sex workers (SW), and transgender (TG) individuals. The overall intent is to help Caribbean Ministries of Health (MOHs) improve how they plan, manage, and deliver HIV services so they can move closer to the UNAIDS 90-90-90 goals (increasing diagnosis, treatment coverage, and viral suppression) using a technical assistance (TA) approach.
The award is designed to expand MOH capacity to strategically address the HIV epidemic through sustainable, national-level improvements in prevention, care, and treatment. Rather than being a short-term service delivery project, the emphasis is on building systems and program capability that can be maintained over time, including scaling up "high impact combination prevention" approaches. In practical terms, combination prevention usually means aligning and strengthening multiple interventions at once (for example, targeted testing and linkage to care, effective antiretroviral treatment and viral load monitoring, prevention services tailored to key populations, and program improvements that reduce gaps across the HIV care continuum). The announcement also references the HIV COP/CT context, indicating alignment with PEPFAR country operational planning priorities and the broader treatment and prevention strategy.
The opportunity is administered by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), under the agency area listed as CDC - CGH, and it uses a cooperative agreement mechanism. A cooperative agreement typically means CDC expects to have substantial involvement in the work beyond simply issuing funds, such as providing ongoing technical guidance, collaborating on planning, and helping monitor progress toward agreed deliverables. The funding activity category is Health, and the CFDA number is 93.067. The opportunity number is CDC RFA GH16 1607.
Funding details included an award ceiling of $1,036,000 and an expectation of a single award (ExpectedAwards: 1). The original closing date listed for applications was 2017-07-28, and the record shows a creation date of 2015-12-03. These dates matter because they signal this was a time-bound competition; anyone looking at it today would treat the summary as informational unless a recompetition or related active funding announcement exists.
Eligibility is broad and includes a wide range of domestic and non-domestic entities. Government applicants may include state, county, city or township governments, special district governments, regional organizations, and U.S. territories or possessions. Educational institutions are eligible, including public and state-controlled institutions of higher education, private institutions of higher education, independent school districts, and designated categories such as Hispanic-serving institutions, historically black colleges and universities, and Alaska Native and Native Hawaiian serving institutions. Tribal entities are eligible, including federally recognized tribal governments, other tribal organizations, tribally designated organizations, tribal epidemiology centers, and urban Indian health organizations. The FOA also allows nonprofits with or without 501(c)(3) status, public housing authorities/Indian housing authorities, for-profit organizations (including small businesses), individuals, and non-domestic (non-U.S.) entities.
In addition to those standard eligibility groupings, the announcement explicitly calls out organizations commonly involved in public health implementation and TA work, including Ministries of Health, research institutions (as long as they perform activities deemed non-research), colleges and universities, community-based organizations, faith-based organizations, hospitals, and small, minority, and women-owned businesses. The inclusion of MOHs and non-U.S. entities aligns with the regional focus and suggests that applicants could be local, regional, or international partners positioned to provide technical support, training, systems strengthening, and implementation assistance to national HIV programs in the Caribbean.
Overall, the opportunity is essentially a capacity-building and program-strengthening investment under PEPFAR, aimed at improving national HIV prevention and treatment outcomes for key populations and people living with HIV. The intended result is stronger, more sustainable national HIV responses that can better find people living with HIV, link them to effective treatment, keep them in care, and achieve viral suppression, while scaling prevention strategies that respond to the realities of a concentrated epidemic in the Caribbean.Apply for CDC RFA GH16 1607
