OpportunityTitle: High-Impact HIV Prevention and Surveillance Programs for Health Departments
AdditionalInformationOnEligibility: See funding tables for list of eligible health department jurisdictions for core and EHE funding.Additionally, a fiduciary entity may request funding on behalf of the health department, as evidence by a letter or memorandum of agreement (MOA) with the health department. If a MOA is not provided by the health department and the identified fiduciary or bona fide agent, CDC will consider an alternative funding agreement for the provision of HIV prevention funding resources to that health department jurisdiction.
Description: The purpose of this notice of funding opportunity (NOFO) is to implement a comprehensive HIV prevention and surveillance program to prevent new HIV infections and improve the health of peoples with HIV. The NOFO aligns with CDC&#8217;s Division of HIV Prevention (DHP) strategic focus areas to bolster community engagement, health equity, syndemic and whole-person approaches to HIV prevention. Applicants will have the opportunity to build their proposed HIV prevention and surveillance program by identifying and implementing activities within the jurisdiction, based on need and resources, to reach the stated goal(s) for each strategy. This NOFO allows for flexibility while ensuring that funding resources are reaching the geographic areas with the highest HIV burden and greatest need. The NOFO priorities are to increase knowledge of HIV status, reduce HIV transmission, prevent new HIV infections, improve linkage to care and viral suppression and maintain elimination of perinatal transmission, with populations. The NOFO aims to attain accurate, complete, and timely surveillance and program data for public health action and strengthen cluster and outbreak response efforts to improve services for people in networks experiencing rapid transmission. Optional activities supporting surveillance, prevention, demonstration project and data modernization initiatives may be requested per availability of funding. The integration of core prevention, surveillance, and Ending the HIV Epidemic (EHE) funding resources allows each jurisdiction to align resources to better match the geographic burden of HIV infections within their jurisdictions, to maximize the impact of federal HIV prevention funding and to improve HIV data collection and use for public health action.
