This funding opportunity, titled "Technical Assistance to Support AIDS Directors and HIV Prevention Program Managers in the 50 States, District of Columbia, the Commonwealth of Puerto Rico, the US Virgin Islands, and the Pacific Islands," is a Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) cooperative agreement administered through the National Center for HIV/AIDS, Viral Hepatitis, STD, and TB Prevention (NCHHSTP). The purpose is to provide ongoing technical assistance that strengthens the work of state and territorial AIDS directors and HIV prevention program managers across the United States and specified jurisdictions. In practical terms, the program is designed to help public health leaders and program staff improve the planning, management, implementation, and performance of HIV prevention efforts, with support that can include subject-matter expertise, capacity building, and program improvement assistance aligned with CDC priorities.

A key detail is that this is not an open, competitive solicitation. The opportunity category is explicitly listed as a continuation, and the description states that the award is intended only for organizations that were previously funded under the earlier announcement CDC-RFA-PS14-1405. That means eligibility is effectively restricted to prior grantees from that specific funding stream, rather than being available to new applicants. The listing reflects a continuation of funding to maintain or extend an existing technical assistance effort rather than launching a new initiative.

The funding instrument type is a cooperative agreement, which generally indicates substantial involvement by the CDC in the funded work compared with a standard grant. While the notice does not spell out the exact activities, cooperative agreements in this area typically involve close coordination with CDC on deliverables, technical approaches, and alignment with national HIV prevention strategies. The funding activity category is health, and the CFDA number associated with the opportunity is 93.939, which corresponds to CDC infectious disease and prevention-related assistance in the HIV/STI domain.

From the administrative details provided, the opportunity number is CDC RFA PS14 140504CONT17, and the original closing date listed is November 30, 2016, with a creation date of November 2, 2016. The award ceiling is shown as 0, which usually means the public synopsis does not specify a maximum award amount in the posting itself (often because the budget is predetermined through continuation processes or handled through internal award documentation rather than a competitive ceiling). The number of expected awards is not populated in the source data, which is consistent with a continuation action where the recipients are already known.

Overall, this announcement describes a continuation cooperative agreement focused on sustaining technical assistance infrastructure that supports HIV prevention leadership in all 50 states and several U.S. territories and freely associated jurisdictions. The main takeaway is that it is intended to continue funding for existing, previously selected grantees under the prior CDC-RFA-PS14-1405 announcement, ensuring that AIDS directors and HIV prevention program managers continue to have access to coordinated support aimed at improving prevention program effectiveness and public health outcomes.
