Public Health Crisis Response Funding | State and Local Readiness | CDC Skip directly to site content Public Health Crisis Response Funding The Public Health Crisis Response cooperative agreement program increases the speed at which CDC can award funds to state, local, tribal, and territorial public health agencies in the event of a public health emergency.
CDC established the Public Health Crisis Response funding mechanism to enhance the nation's ability to rapidly respond to public health emergencies. CDC's previous emergency response experience demonstrates that quickly awarding initial funding to support immediate response activities can effectively mitigate negative health outcomes.
Public Health Crisis Response funding is designed to support the surge needs of existing public health programs responding to a significant public health emergency. Through this funding mechanism, CDC establishes an "approved but unfunded" (ABU) roster of recipients that submit timely funding applications in response to a notice of funding opportunity (NOFO).
CDC awards funding once it has been determined a public health emergency exists or is considered imminent. Funding is contingent upon the availability and stipulations of appropriations or other funding sources. Not every jurisdiction on CDC's ABU roster will be funded for every public health emergency; the size and scope of the emergency will help inform funding decisions.
CDC provides supplemental guidance to entities on the ABU list when the notice of funding opportunity (NOFO) is activated regarding specific activities intended to address the emergency. Recipients may also use funding awarded through this mechanism to re-establish capacity lost or diminished because of the public health crisis.
2022 Public Health Crisis Response NOFO CDC released the 2022 Public Health Crisis Response NOFO (CDC-RFA-TP22-2201) in January 2022, with expanded eligibility criteria for local governments based on 2019 U.S. Census data. The NOFO is available on www. grants.
gov. Eligible entities included Eight U.S. territories and freely associated states; Local health departments that serve a county population of 2 million or more or serve a city population of 400,000 or more; and Federally recognized tribal governments that serve a population of 50,000 or more.
CDC reopens the Public Health Crisis Response funding announcement annually to allow for new submissions due to population changes and plans to reopen the funding announcement annually. CDC determines the Public Health Crisis Response Cooperative Agreement's ABU roster following an objective review of the applications by CDC's Office of Grant Services for eligibility and responsiveness criteria.
CDC uses this ABU list for emergencies that require federal support to effectively respond to, manage, and address identified public health threats. Recipients will only be funded when a public health emergency has occurred or is projected to impact the United States, and CDC determines there is a need to award funds under this NOFO for that specific emergency.
The purpose of this NOFO is to rapidly mobilize and fund health departments for immediate response needs. Applicants listed on the ABU list will be able to receive expedited funding.
