Opportunity Information: Apply for CDC RFA GH15 156102CONT16

This grant opportunity, titled "Improving Implementation of Programs for Care and Treatment of HIV/AIDS in the Republic of Mozambique under the President's Emergency Plan for AIDS Relief (PEPFAR)," is a U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) funding action focused on supporting HIV/AIDS care and treatment efforts in Mozambique under the broader PEPFAR initiative. The funding mechanism is a cooperative agreement, which typically means the CDC expects to have substantial involvement in the program beyond simply issuing funds, such as providing technical direction, collaboration on implementation approaches, monitoring, and alignment with U.S. government and host-country priorities.

A key point is that this is not an open competition for new applicants. The opportunity category is listed as "Continuation," and the description makes clear that the award is intended only for organizations that previously received an award under the earlier funding announcement CDC-RFA-GH15-1561. In practical terms, this type of notice is used when an existing CDC-funded project is being continued into a subsequent budget period or extended phase, and only the current recipient(s) are eligible to receive additional funding under the continuation action.

The programmatic focus implied by the title and activity category is strengthening the implementation of HIV/AIDS care and treatment programming in Mozambique. While the notice itself does not provide detailed activities, work under a PEPFAR care and treatment cooperative agreement commonly includes improving service delivery and clinical outcomes across the HIV care continuum, such as expanding access to antiretroviral therapy (ART), improving retention in care, supporting viral load monitoring and viral suppression, strengthening clinical quality improvement, and building health system capacity to deliver consistent HIV services. Because this is framed as "improving implementation," it suggests emphasis on operational performance, program management, and translating policy and guidelines into effective routine practice in clinics and health networks.

Administratively, the opportunity is issued by the CDC under CFDA (now often referred to as assistance listing) number 93.067, which corresponds to CDC-related global HIV/AIDS activities. The funding activity category is Health, and the instrument type is a cooperative agreement, reflecting an assistance relationship with ongoing collaboration. The opportunity number is CDC RFA GH15 156102CONT16, indicating it is tied to the original GH15-1561 announcement and labeled as a continuation action.

Several fields in the source data signal that this posting is primarily a formal continuation notice rather than a new solicitation with a defined competition structure. The original closing date is listed as 2015-11-30, consistent with the original announcement timeframe, and the "award ceiling" is shown as 0, which often appears in continuation postings where the specific continuation amount may be determined through internal budgeting processes, annual workplan approvals, or amended notices rather than being presented as a competitive cap for applicants. The number of expected awards is not specified in the provided data, which also fits a continuation format where the recipient pool is already known from prior awards.

In summary, this CDC opportunity supports ongoing PEPFAR-funded HIV/AIDS care and treatment implementation in Mozambique and is specifically designed to continue funding for existing grantees from the earlier CDC-RFA-GH15-1561 award. It is not intended for new applicants, and it uses a cooperative agreement structure to maintain close CDC involvement in program execution, performance improvement, and alignment with PEPFAR objectives in Mozambique.
