Opportunity Information: Apply for CDC RFA DP18 1805
The grant opportunity titled "Provision of Technical Assistance and Training Activities to Assure Comprehensive Cancer Control Outcomes" (Funding Opportunity Number: CDC RFA DP18-1805) is a discretionary funding program from the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), specifically within the National Center for Chronic Disease Prevention and Health Promotion (NCCDPHP). It is offered as a cooperative agreement, which generally means the CDC expects to have substantial involvement with awardees during the project period rather than simply providing funds with minimal federal engagement.
The core purpose of this announcement is to strengthen the National Comprehensive Cancer Control (CCC) program by funding national organizations to deliver technical assistance (TA) and training to CDC-funded CCC grantees and their coalitions. In practical terms, the CDC is looking for organizations that already have strong, demonstrated expertise in chronic disease prevention and health promotion and can translate that expertise into hands-on support for state, territorial, tribal, and other CCC programs and the partner coalitions they convene. The emphasis is not on running direct cancer prevention programs in a single community, but on helping the nationwide CCC network function better, implement stronger interventions, and achieve more consistent outcomes.
A major expected result is wider and more complete adoption of evidence-based and promising comprehensive cancer control interventions across three key areas: primary prevention, screening, and survivorship. Primary prevention typically includes reducing cancer risk factors such as tobacco use, poor nutrition, physical inactivity, and other behavioral or environmental risks. Screening focuses on improving the appropriate use of early detection services that can find cancers sooner, when treatment is more effective. Survivorship addresses the needs of people living with and beyond cancer, including quality of life, follow-up care, and long-term support systems. By centering TA and training on these areas, the opportunity is designed to move CCC programs away from uneven implementation and toward approaches that have clear evidence, proven strategies, and realistic pathways to scale.
Another central theme is capacity building. The announcement describes improving CCC program capacity in ways that are very operational and outcome-oriented: expanding the reach of the target audience, using resources more efficiently, increasing competence and commitment for health action and change, and improving the ability to respond to emerging health issues. In other words, the CDC is not only interested in what interventions are chosen, but also in whether CCC programs have the skills, partnerships, planning habits, evaluation practices, and adaptive capability to sustain and expand cancer control work over time. This includes helping coalitions and grantees sharpen their strategic planning, strengthen partnership management, make better use of data, and implement interventions with enough quality and consistency to produce measurable public health improvements.
From an eligibility standpoint, the listing indicates the competition is unrestricted, meaning it is open to any type of entity as long as it meets any additional eligibility clarifications that may appear in the full announcement text. The funding activity category is Health, and the CFDA number is 93.427, which corresponds to the CDC’s cancer prevention and control-related assistance programs. The CDC anticipated making 2 awards, with an award ceiling of $825,000. Applications were originally due May 30, 2018, with the standard federal requirement that electronic submissions be completed by 5:00 p.m. Eastern Time on the due date.
Overall, this opportunity is best understood as an investment in the infrastructure of comprehensive cancer control nationwide. Instead of paying for a single intervention in one place, it supports national-level organizations that can coach, train, and guide multiple CCC grantees and coalitions so that evidence-based prevention, screening, and survivorship strategies are adopted more consistently, delivered more effectively, and adapted more quickly as new challenges and public health priorities emerge.Apply for CDC RFA DP18 1805
