The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), operating under the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS), is offering funding through a cooperative agreement titled RFA-GH-18-000. This opportunity is categorized as discretionary and falls under the health funding activity. The funding instrument is specifically a cooperative agreement, indicating a substantial level of involvement from the CDC in managing and overseeing the supported projects.

The grant aims to support initiatives aligned with the objectives of injury prevention and control, both through research and through state and community-based programs. While the total program funding is noted as zero and both the award ceiling and floor are indicated as zero, the opportunity still expects to make up to 100 awards. This suggests that financial details might either be undetermined at the time of the posting or managed under a different structure, such as through in-kind support or phased funding with future updates.

Eligibility for this grant includes a range of applicant types: state governments, universities, county governments, small businesses, and nonprofit organizations. Although listed under “Others,” the clarification in the eligibility text field expands the range of acceptable applicants, making this an inclusive funding opportunity.

Applications must be submitted by October 13, 2025, which is both the original and current closing date. The funding notice was originally posted on October 13, 2023, and it is expected to be archived on November 12, 2025. No pre-application deadlines or Q&A periods are mentioned in the available documentation, and the opportunity is not designated as being on a rolling basis.

Applicants are encouraged to prepare and submit their applications as required. For any technical difficulties or questions regarding the full announcement, contact can be made with Linton C. Browning, the Grants Management Specialist, at 770-488-2756 or via email at lbrowning@cdc.gov.
