OpportunityTitle: Pregnant People-Infant Linked Longitudinal Surveillance
AdditionalInformationOnEligibility: Eligible applicants must have the public health authority, legislative mandate or otherwise show legal access to the requisite data to conduct clinic or population-based surveillance. This authority allows unique and specific access to datasets from multiple data sources that are required to implement the activities outlined in this NOFO. This may be an MOU, letter of support, or other legal documentation to demonstrate public health authority, legislative mandate, or legal access to the data. Eligible applicants must document this authority in &quot;Other Attachment Forms&quot; with attachment name &quot;Legal Authority&quot;&#160;as a PDF uploaded to www.grants.gov. CDC will consider any application that does not include this required documentation as non-responsive, and it will receive no further review.&#160; &#160; A Bona Fide Agent is an agency/organization identified by the state as eligible to submit an application under the state eligibility in lieu of a state application. If applying as a Bona Fide Agent of a state government, a letter from the state government as documentation of the status is required and should be submitted under &quot;Other Attachment Forms&quot; with attachment name &quot;Bona Fide Agent.&#8221; If the Bona Fide Agent attachment does not specify legal authority, the applicant must include an attachment named &quot;Legal Authority&quot; in &quot;Other Attachment Forms&quot;.&#160; &#160; The NOFO has three components: A, B, and C. Eligible applicants may only apply for Component A, Component B, or Component C. If an applicant submits multiple applications, all applications will be deemed non-responsive, and none will receive further review. In the &#8220;Descriptive Title of Applicant&#8217;s Project&#8221; on the SF-424 form, applicants must identify the component to which they are applying.&#160;
Description: CDC proposes to allocate funds to implement Notice of Funding Opportunity (NOFO) DD-23-0003, Pregnant People-Infant Linked Longitudinal Surveillance. The project period will be four years, with 4, 12-month budget periods and an anticipated project start date of September 30, 2023. The purpose of this NOFO is to sustain, improve, and expand surveillance efforts from entities that have data systems to identify pregnant people-infant linked longitudinal data to ensure timely reporting of key exposures and outcomes that impact pregnant people and infants, to improve data quality and share evolving outcome data, to innovate clinical strategies, and to build a strong collaborative network. Priority exposures and outcomes of public health interest may include, but are not limited to, medication for opioid use disorder, cytomegalovirus, neonatal abstinence syndrome, stillbirths, and other conditions that may have serious public health impacts on pregnant people and infants. CDC will also fund entities with informatics expertise to advance interoperability, evaluate data quality, and disseminate data through visualizations. Furthermore, this network could be leveraged for emerging, reemerging, and persistent public health threats to pregnant people and infants.
