Opportunity Information: Apply for CDC RFA PS22 2204
The grant opportunity titled "Enhancing National STD/HIV Prevention Efforts by Promoting Holistic, Comprehensive and Evidence-Informed, Health and Wellness Approaches through Strategic Partnerships" (CDC RFA PS22-2204) is a CDC cooperative agreement designed to support and strengthen the work of the National Coalition for Sexual Health (NCSH). Administered by the Department of Health and Human Services through the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), specifically NCHHSTP, the opportunity focuses on scaling a national, partnership-driven strategy that improves STD and HIV prevention by placing sexual health within a broader health and wellness framework, rather than relying only on traditional disease-specific prevention approaches.
At the core of the funding is the idea that STD/HIV prevention can be more effective when it is integrated into a holistic public health approach that promotes overall sexual health and well-being. The NCSH model emphasizes normalizing and improving how people talk about sexual health, encouraging more productive and sustained conversations, and increasing access to high-quality, evidence-informed sexual health information and services. In practical terms, this means helping shift public health messaging and programming toward a more comprehensive view of sexual health that supports prevention while also addressing the social, communication, and healthcare factors that influence risk and outcomes.
Although STD/HIV prevention is the primary driver, the FOA makes clear that this approach is also relevant to several related public health priorities. The same health and wellness framework can support prevention and control of viral hepatitis, improvements in reproductive health (including teen pregnancy and unplanned pregnancy prevention), and prevention of sexual and intimate partner violence. The intent is to leverage the coalition platform so that sexual health is treated as interconnected with other public health goals, allowing shared strategies, aligned messages, and coordinated partnerships to improve population-level outcomes.
The funded recipient is expected to sustain and expand a nationally representative coalition made up of diverse organizations and sectors that play a role in sexual health, STD/HIV prevention, and health communication. The work includes maintaining, leading, organizing, and facilitating the existing network of coalition partners, while continuing to recruit and engage additional members to ensure broad representation and reach. In addition to coalition management, the FOA calls for continued implementation of programmatic activities and evaluation efforts to assess what is working, measure progress, and guide improvements over time.
A major component of the award centers on communication and dissemination. The coalition is expected to promote and distribute coalition products, support national messaging efforts that advance sexual health, and maintain and update coalition websites as key platforms for information-sharing and public engagement. The FOA also highlights the importance of continuing to convene coalition action groups, which function as working groups that concentrate partner expertise on specific priorities, coordinate outputs, and help translate the coalition's goals into concrete tools, campaigns, and recommendations.
From an operational standpoint, this is a discretionary funding opportunity using a cooperative agreement mechanism, meaning CDC is likely to have substantial involvement in guiding or collaborating on the work rather than simply issuing a hands-off grant. The opportunity lists an unrestricted eligible applicant category (open to any entity type, subject to any eligibility clarifications in the full announcement), but it is structured to provide support to NCSH and indicates an expectation of a single award (ExpectedAwards: 1). The FOA was created February 18, 2022, with an original closing date of April 18, 2022, and applications were due by 11:59 pm ET on the due date. The listing also shows an award ceiling of 0, which generally signals that applicants need to rely on the full FOA details for budget limits or that a specific ceiling was not entered in the summary data.
Overall, this funding opportunity is about sustaining and advancing a national partnership infrastructure that promotes sexual health as a standard part of health and wellness, using evidence-informed communication, coalition-driven coordination, ongoing evaluation, and public-facing resources. The long-term aim is to maintain the momentum already built by NCSH and use that momentum to improve sexual health and strengthen STD/HIV prevention outcomes at the national level through strategic partnerships and integrated public health approaches.Apply for CDC RFA PS22 2204
