Public-Private Partnerships under the President's Emergency Plan for AIDS Relief (PEPFAR) | CDC RFA GH15 153902CONT16

Opportunity Information: Apply for CDC RFA GH15 153902CONT16

The grant opportunity titled "Public-Private Partnerships under the President's Emergency Plan for AIDS Relief (PEPFAR)" is a continuation funding announcement issued by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC). It is designed to provide ongoing support to existing projects that were originally funded under an earlier CDC funding opportunity, specifically CDC-RFA-GH15-1539. In practical terms, this means the opportunity is not a typical open competition for new applicants; it is intended only for organizations that already received an award under that prior announcement and are being considered for continued funding to sustain or extend their approved work.

This opportunity is listed under the funding opportunity number CDC RFA GH15 153902CONT16, and it uses a Cooperative Agreement as the funding instrument. A cooperative agreement generally indicates that CDC expects to have substantial involvement in the work as it continues, such as collaboration on technical direction, monitoring, program strategy, and performance oversight, rather than simply providing funds with minimal federal engagement. The activity category is Health, and the program is associated with CFDA number 93.067, which corresponds to CDC activities supporting global HIV/AIDS efforts under PEPFAR and related public health programming.

The focus area, as reflected in the title, is public-private partnerships within PEPFAR, the U.S. government's major initiative to address the global HIV/AIDS epidemic. While the listing does not provide programmatic detail beyond the brief description, opportunities framed around public-private partnerships under PEPFAR typically emphasize collaboration between government public health programs and private-sector or non-governmental partners to accelerate HIV prevention, testing, treatment, and care outcomes, often leveraging private capabilities, innovation, supply chains, service delivery networks, or co-investment models to strengthen public health impact.

Eligibility is described broadly as "Others," but the key limiting factor is explicitly stated in the description: the continuation award is intended only for grantees previously awarded under CDC-RFA-GH15-1539. As a result, organizations that did not receive the original award should not expect to be eligible to apply for or receive funding through this specific continuation notice. The original closing date referenced is December 2, 2015, and the creation date for this continuation record is October 2, 2015, indicating that the record relates to an established funding cycle rather than a newly opened competition.

Finally, some of the fields signal that this is primarily an administrative continuation record rather than a new award competition with defined new funding levels. The award ceiling is listed as 0, and the expected number of awards is not provided, which commonly happens in continuation notices where the funding amounts and number of continuing awards depend on previously negotiated budgets, performance, availability of funds, and continued alignment with CDC and PEPFAR priorities. In short, this opportunity is best understood as CDC maintaining support for existing PEPFAR public-private partnership activities through cooperative agreements with previously selected grantees, rather than soliciting new proposals from the broader public.
