Opportunity Information: Apply for CDC RFA PS17 1705

The grant opportunity titled "Strengthening Collaboration Between TB Control Programs and Affiliated Partners in the United States" (Funding Opportunity Number CDC RFA PS17-1705) is a CDC cooperative agreement intended to support a single national recipient in improving how tuberculosis (TB) control programs and key partner organizations work together to prevent, control, and ultimately eliminate TB in the United States. Administered by the Department of Health and Human Services, Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), within NCHHSTP and specifically in collaboration with the CDC Division of Tuberculosis Elimination (DTBE), the project is designed to reinforce national coordination across local, state, and federal TB efforts while ensuring that front-line expertise and rapidly evolving field realities are reflected in national TB objectives.

The core purpose of the award is to strengthen collaboration and information flow among the "nation's TB control programs" and affiliated partners that influence TB practice and policy. The opportunity explicitly references partner groups such as the National TB Nurse Coalition, the National Society of TB Clinicians, the Society for Epidemiology in TB Control, the Federal TB Task Force, and other relevant organizations. In practical terms, the recipient is expected to function as a connector and facilitator across these groups, helping ensure that communication is consistent, timely, and useful to programs dealing with TB prevention and response on the ground.

The funded work emphasizes six major areas of activity and capacity-building. First, the recipient must maintain effective communication capacity among TB control programs and affiliated partners, which implies sustaining channels for routine updates, coordination, and rapid dissemination of important information. Second, the project supports the capacity to quickly organize comprehensive assessments of problems and opportunities in TB prevention and control, meaning the awardee should be able to convene stakeholders, gather input, and synthesize emerging challenges and promising practices as conditions change. Third, the recipient must maintain the ability to coordinate consultations and collaborations that generate a front-line perspective on fast-moving programmatic, scientific, and technological issues affecting national TB goals. This highlights the CDC interest in ensuring that guidance and strategy remain grounded in real operational experience and informed by current developments.

Fourth, the awardee is expected to assist in identifying TB training needs, helping clarify where workforce development is required across the TB control landscape and what topics or competencies should be prioritized. Fifth, the project must provide access to the most up-to-date information on best practices, current research, and innovative approaches to TB control, effectively serving as a bridge between evidence, innovation, and implementation so that programs are not working with outdated methods. Sixth, the recipient is responsible for evaluating the project's effectiveness and impact in relation to the stated outcomes, indicating that the cooperative agreement expects structured performance measurement and documentation of how the collaboration and coordination activities contribute to stronger TB prevention and control capacity.

From an administrative standpoint, the opportunity is categorized as discretionary funding and uses a cooperative agreement mechanism, which generally indicates substantial involvement by CDC program staff in shaping, supporting, or collaborating on the work during the period of performance. The CFDA number listed is 93.116, and eligibility is described as unrestricted, meaning applications were open broadly to entity types as allowed by the funding notice, subject to any additional eligibility clarifications in the full text. The award ceiling is $280,000, with one expected award, emphasizing that the program was intended to fund a single coordinating entity rather than multiple parallel projects.

The notice was created on May 10, 2017, with an original closing date of July 10, 2017, and required electronic submission by 5:00 p.m. Eastern Time on the due date. Overall, the opportunity is best understood as a national coordination and infrastructure award focused less on direct clinical service delivery and more on strengthening the connective tissue of the U.S. TB control system: communications, rapid field assessment, expert consultation, training needs identification, evidence sharing, and evaluation of impact toward national TB prevention and elimination objectives.
