Opportunity Information: Apply for CDC RFA CK14 1401CONTPPHF16
The grant opportunity titled "PPHF 2016: Epidemiology and Laboratory Capacity Program for Infectious Diseases (ELC) - Building and Strengthening Epidemiology, Laboratory and Health Information Systems Capacity in State and Local Health Departments - Financed in part by 2016 Prevention and Public Health Funds" is a CDC continuation funding announcement designed to keep supporting the same core public health infrastructure work that was funded in the prior year. In practical terms, it is not a new, open competition; it is a continuation award intended only for organizations that already held an award under the earlier CDC funding opportunity CDC-RFA-CK14-1401PPHF14 (the 2015 ELC PPHF award). The emphasis is on sustaining and strengthening state and local capacity to detect, track, and respond to infectious disease threats through improved epidemiology, laboratory capability, and health information systems.
This funding is issued by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention under a cooperative agreement mechanism, which generally means the CDC expects to have substantial involvement in the work, such as providing technical guidance, performance monitoring, and coordination support as recipients carry out activities. The program sits within CDCs broader Epidemiology and Laboratory Capacity (ELC) framework, which is typically focused on ensuring health departments can rapidly identify infectious diseases, conduct surveillance, investigate outbreaks, and share data effectively across jurisdictions and with federal partners. The inclusion of health information systems highlights that the work is not limited to lab testing alone, but also includes the data pipelines, reporting systems, and informatics capacity needed to turn test results and case investigations into timely public health action.
The announcement is financed in part by the Prevention and Public Health Fund (PPHF) for fiscal year 2016, which is a federal funding source intended to support prevention-focused public health activities and foundational capabilities. The FOA explicitly frames the funds as a continuation of prior PPHF-supported ELC investments rather than an expansion into brand new recipients. The eligible applicants field is listed as "Others," but the narrative makes clear that eligibility is effectively restricted to existing grantees from the referenced 2015 award. The funding opportunity number is CDC RFA CK14 1401CONTPPHF16, and it was posted with a creation date of March 14, 2016, with an original closing date of May 27, 2016.
Several administrative details reinforce that this is a continuation action rather than a typical competitive grant. The opportunity category is "Continuation," and the expected number of awards is not specified in the provided data, which is consistent with funding being limited to a predefined set of current recipients. The award ceiling is shown as 0, which often indicates that a single maximum award amount was not stated in the summary record, or that amounts are determined based on continuation budgets and CDC allocations rather than an open, capped competition. The funding activity category is "Health," and the CFDA numbers associated with the opportunity are 93.323 and 93.521, reflecting the federal catalog program areas tied to the work.
Overall, the opportunity is best understood as CDC maintaining year-to-year support for state and local health department capabilities that are essential for infectious disease surveillance and response: trained epidemiology staff, functional public health laboratories, and modern data systems that allow faster reporting, better situational awareness, and coordinated response during outbreaks. The continuation structure signals a focus on preserving momentum and ensuring that the improvements funded in the previous cycle remain operational, staffed, and integrated into routine public health practice.Apply for CDC RFA CK14 1401CONTPPHF16
