Opportunity Information: Apply for CDC RFA IP 23 0004
This funding opportunity from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), housed within the National Center for Immunization and Respiratory Diseases (NCIRD), is designed to strengthen the day-to-day leadership and long-term readiness of immunization program managers across the United States and its jurisdictions. While vaccination has dramatically reduced illness, hospitalizations, deaths, and healthcare costs from vaccine-preventable diseases, the CDC notes that sustaining these gains requires ongoing work to keep vaccination coverage high, keep pace with regularly updated recommendations from the Advisory Committee on Immunization Practices (ACIP), and respond quickly to outbreaks. The CDC funds 64 state, territorial, and local immunization programs under an existing award structure (CDC-RFA-IP19-1901), and these programs rely heavily on immunization program managers who oversee operations, set and execute program goals, and steer programs through shifting policy and operational conditions.
The core purpose of the award is to support those immunization program managers through a single national coordinating organization that can provide consistent, high-quality assistance at scale. The CDC is emphasizing that program managers face constant operational pressures, such as changes in vaccine policy and clinical guidance, vaccine pricing and financing issues, the evolving role and functionality of immunization information systems, and other real-world factors that affect how vaccines are delivered and tracked. Beyond technical challenges, the opportunity recognizes the practical value of peer learning: program managers benefit when they have a structured way to share solutions, compare approaches, troubleshoot common problems, and spread successful practices across jurisdictions rather than reinventing strategies in isolation.
The cooperative agreement is built around five main functions. First, it supports leadership and professional development for immunization program managers, with the intent of improving management capacity and helping managers execute responsibilities more effectively. Second, it strengthens communication and information sharing among key partners and trusted messengers, acknowledging that immunization programs operate within broad networks that include health departments, clinical partners, and community-facing stakeholders. Third, it focuses on preparing program managers for the future of immunization programs, meaning the awardee is expected to help managers anticipate and adapt to emerging needs, changing technologies, and evolving public health expectations. Fourth, it provides targeted support to help program managers address emerging immunization issues, which can include new outbreaks, new recommendations, shifts in vaccine supply or access, and other time-sensitive developments that require coordinated responses. Fifth, it funds convening and coordination activities that bring program managers together and ensure that tools, guidance, and resources are translated into practical, usable support that strengthens local and jurisdictional immunization program operations.
Administratively, this is a discretionary cooperative agreement (not a formula allocation), meaning the CDC anticipates substantial involvement with the recipient in shaping and carrying out the work. The opportunity number is CDC RFA IP 23 0004 (also referenced in the description as CDC-RFA-IP23-2304). The agency planned to make a single award (ExpectedAwards: 1), with an award ceiling of $6,000,000. Eligible applicants are broad and include state, county, city/township, and special district governments; independent school districts; public and state-controlled institutions of higher education; federally recognized tribal governments and other tribal organizations; public housing authorities/Indian housing authorities; and nonprofit organizations with 501(c)(3) status (excluding institutions of higher education in that specific nonprofit category). The posting date was March 9, 2023, with applications due April 28, 2023, submitted electronically by 11:59 pm ET on the deadline date. Overall, the CDC is funding a national hub whose job is to elevate the effectiveness, connectivity, and preparedness of immunization program managers so jurisdictional immunization programs can more consistently meet coverage goals, align with ACIP recommendations, and respond to outbreaks with less delay and more coordination.Apply for CDC RFA IP 23 0004
