Opportunity Information: Apply for CDC RFA GH13 131203CONT16
The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) announced a continuation funding opportunity titled "Comprehensive HIV Prevention, Care and Treatment for the National Defense Force of Ethiopia (NDFE) under the President's Emergency Plan for AIDS Relief (PEPFAR)." The purpose of this opportunity is to continue supporting an existing CDC-backed program focused on HIV prevention, care, and treatment services specifically for Ethiopia's National Defense Force, within the broader framework of PEPFAR. In practical terms, this type of award is meant to sustain ongoing activities, preserve program gains, and maintain service delivery systems that have already been established under a prior award rather than launching a brand-new initiative or opening competition to new organizations.
This opportunity is explicitly categorized as a "Continuation" and is limited only to organizations that were previously funded under the earlier related announcement, identified as CDC-RFA-GH13-1312. That restriction is central to understanding the grant: it is not an open call for new applicants, and the pool of eligible recipients is effectively confined to incumbent grantees already managing the referenced NDFE HIV program. The listing shows the eligible applicant type as "Others," but the narrative description clarifies that eligibility is restricted by prior award status, meaning only existing awardees from the earlier funding round can be considered for continued support.
The funding instrument is a Cooperative Agreement, which generally indicates substantial involvement by the CDC in program implementation and oversight compared to a standard grant. Under cooperative agreements, CDC typically collaborates with the recipient on technical direction, performance monitoring, and alignment with U.S. government public health priorities, including PEPFAR program expectations. The activity category is listed as "Health," and the associated CFDA number is 93.067, which corresponds to CDC's global HIV-related assistance programming.
Key administrative details included in the source data are the opportunity number (CDC RFA GH13 131203CONT16), the agency (Centers for Disease Control and Prevention), and important dates: the posting/creation date is October 2, 2015, and the original closing date is December 1, 2015. The award ceiling is shown as 0, which commonly means a specific maximum award amount was not published in the synopsis, may be determined through continuation budgeting, or is otherwise controlled through internal allocation processes tied to continuation funding. The number of expected awards is not provided in the source data, which is consistent with continuation opportunities that typically anticipate funding one or a small number of existing recipients rather than making multiple new awards.
Overall, this announcement is best understood as an administrative mechanism for extending or renewing CDC support to incumbent implementers of an established PEPFAR-supported HIV program serving Ethiopia's military population. It emphasizes program continuity and targeted service delivery for the National Defense Force of Ethiopia rather than introducing new program models or seeking additional implementers through a competitive process.Apply for CDC RFA GH13 131203CONT16
