Opportunity Information: Apply for CDC RFA PS18 1808
The National Network to Enhance Capacity of State and Local Sexually Transmitted Disease Prevention Programs (NNECS) is a CDC discretionary funding opportunity released under Funding Opportunity Number CDC RFA PS18-1808. It is offered by the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services through the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, specifically within NCHHSTP (the National Center for HIV/AIDS, Viral Hepatitis, STD, and TB Prevention). The award is structured as a cooperative agreement, which typically means the CDC expects to have substantial involvement with the recipient during implementation rather than simply providing funds with minimal federal interaction.
The core aim of this opportunity is to fund one national-level organization that represents state, local, and territorial sexually transmitted disease (STD) program directors. The CDC is looking for an entity that can act as a central hub for strengthening STD prevention programs across jurisdictions by improving both workforce capacity (the people, skills, and training needed to do the work) and operational capacity (the systems, processes, and infrastructure that help programs run effectively). In practical terms, the funded organization would be positioned to support program directors and their teams by helping them share best practices, troubleshoot common implementation challenges, and improve consistency and quality across STD prevention efforts nationwide.
A major emphasis of NNECS is building and maintaining strong communication channels and partnerships that help move national STD prevention goals forward. This includes ensuring that state and local program leaders have reliable, strategic ways to communicate with one another and with national partners, and that the network can mobilize around emerging priorities in STD prevention. The CDC’s intent is that this national organization will help connect jurisdictions, align efforts, and amplify coordination so that STD prevention strategies are not carried out in isolation but reinforced through shared planning, information exchange, and collaborative problem-solving.
The funding details signal that this is a large, single-recipient effort. The opportunity anticipates one award, with an award ceiling of $5,000,000. The project period is five years, organized into 12-month budget periods, meaning funding and work plans are typically reviewed and approved annually while the overall initiative is expected to operate across a longer five-year horizon. The anticipated award date is September 1, 2018. The opportunity was created on January 29, 2018, and the original closing date for applications was April 2, 2018, with electronic submissions due by 5:00 p.m. Eastern Time on the deadline date.
Eligibility is described as unrestricted, meaning it is broadly open to many entity types, although applicants still have to follow any clarifying conditions the CDC includes in the full eligibility section of the announcement. The program is categorized under the health funding activity category and is associated with CFDA number 93.977, which is commonly tied to STD-related prevention and control efforts. Overall, NNECS is designed to strengthen the nationwide backbone that supports STD program leadership, enabling jurisdictions to improve capacity and coordination in ways that directly support CDC’s broader STD prevention objectives.Apply for CDC RFA PS18 1808
