Opportunity Information: Apply for CDC RFA CK 23 0005
Strengthening Training, Evaluation, and Partnerships in the Prevention and Control of Vector-Borne Diseases (CDC RFA CK 23 0005) is a CDC cooperative agreement aimed at boosting the United States' ability to prevent and control vector-borne diseases, such as illnesses spread by mosquitoes, ticks, fleas, and other vectors. The opportunity focuses on a practical, capacity-building approach: expanding and improving the workforce that does vector-borne disease prevention and control, increasing the real-world use and assessment of available prevention and control tools, and connecting the key players who need to work together to reduce disease risk. Rather than funding basic research, the emphasis is on training, program improvement, applied evaluation, and coordination across sectors so that communities can respond more effectively to current and emerging vector-borne threats.
The program is organized around three required strategies that applicants must address in their proposed work. The first strategy, TRAIN, centers on increasing training opportunities in vector-borne disease prevention and control. This training must serve two audiences: university or college students (building the pipeline of future professionals) and currently practicing vector-borne disease prevention and control professionals (strengthening and updating the existing workforce). In practical terms, this can involve developing or expanding curricula, field-based learning, internships, workshops, continuing education, hands-on vector surveillance and control training, and other structured learning opportunities that help participants gain the competencies needed for real public health operations.
The second strategy, EVALUATE, requires recipients to evaluate the impact and effectiveness of existing or commercially available vector-borne disease prevention and control programs, tools, and technologies. The NOFO specifies that this evaluation is non-research, meaning the intention is not to generate generalizable research findings in the academic sense, but to assess how well tools and programs work in operational settings and to inform adoption, improvement, and decision-making. Examples of what this might look like include assessing implementation quality, measuring program outcomes, comparing performance of available control tools under field conditions, examining operational feasibility, and identifying barriers and facilitators to effective deployment. The overall goal is to help public health agencies and partners make better, evidence-informed choices about what to use and how to use it.
The third strategy, PARTNER, is about building and strengthening partnerships across the vector-borne disease community to support and deliver the training and evaluation activities. Collaboration is not optional under this NOFO; proposed activities must include collaborative partnerships with private partners, academic centers, or public health organizations at the federal, state, tribal, or local levels. The purpose of these partnerships is to create durable coordination between organizations that train the workforce and the agencies and groups that actually implement vector-borne disease prevention and control in the field. This partnership component also reflects the reality that vector-borne disease control often depends on coordination across jurisdictions and sectors, including academia, government, and private entities that may develop tools or provide operational capabilities.
Administratively, this opportunity is issued by the Department of Health and Human Services, Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), under NCEZID, and uses a cooperative agreement funding instrument. A cooperative agreement typically indicates substantial involvement by the federal agency in collaborating with awardees during the project period, which often includes technical assistance, coordination expectations, and shared planning to meet national goals. The funding activity category is Health, and the CFDA number listed is 93.084. The opportunity was created on November 29, 2022, with an original application closing date of February 3, 2023, and electronic submissions were due by 11:59 pm ET on the deadline date. The listing indicates an expected 10 awards. The award ceiling is shown as 0 in the source data, which usually signals that the ceiling was not specified in that field rather than implying no funding; applicants typically confirm actual funding limits and project periods in the full NOFO document.
Eligibility is broad and includes many types of organizations that could contribute to workforce development, evaluation, and partnership-building in vector-borne disease prevention and control. Eligible applicants include state, county, and city or township governments; special district governments; independent school districts; public and state-controlled institutions of higher education; private institutions of higher education; federally recognized Native American tribal governments and other tribal organizations; public housing authorities and Indian housing authorities; nonprofit organizations (both 501(c)(3) and non-501(c)(3), excluding institutions of higher education in those categories); for-profit organizations (including small businesses and other than small businesses); and other entities as clarified in the NOFO. This wide eligibility reflects the program's cross-sector intent, where meaningful results often require joint work between universities, health departments, tribal entities, and private-sector partners.
Taken together, the grant opportunity is designed to strengthen national readiness and response capacity for vector-borne diseases by building a stronger talent pipeline and better-trained practitioners, improving how prevention and control tools and programs are assessed and implemented in real settings, and ensuring that partnerships are in place to connect training institutions with the agencies and organizations responsible for public health action.Apply for CDC RFA CK 23 0005
