Opportunity Information: Apply for CDC RFA IP22 2203

Tracking the burden, distribution, and impact of Post COVID-19 conditions in diverse populations for children, adolescents, and adults (Track PCC) is a CDC funding opportunity designed to strengthen understanding of post-COVID-19 conditions (PCC) in the United States by building a coordinated surveillance and follow-up effort. PCC, as framed in the announcement, refers to a broad set of new, returning, or ongoing health problems that appear or persist more than four weeks after a person is initially infected with SARS-CoV-2. The overall goal is not only to count and characterize PCC cases, but to study how these conditions affect people over time, how they are distributed across different communities, and what factors make PCC more likely to develop, last longer, or resolve.

The program emphasizes diversity and representativeness, with explicit focus on children, adolescents, and adults across varied populations and settings. Awardees are expected to work in collaboration with state partners, academic institutions, and/or health networks to identify cohorts of people with PCC and follow them longitudinally. This long-term follow-up element is central: the CDC is seeking information that goes beyond one-time snapshots and instead tracks health trajectories, functional impacts, and outcomes over time. In parallel, funded projects are expected to examine risk factors (such as demographic, clinical, and contextual drivers that may increase PCC likelihood or severity) and mitigating factors (such as protective elements, interventions, access to care, vaccination status as applicable, or other influences that may reduce risk or support recovery). The intent is to generate actionable evidence that can inform prevention, clinical guidance, and public health response.

Structurally, the NOFO is organized into two coordinated components. Component A funds up to four surveillance sites that will conduct on-the-ground surveillance and cohort follow-up activities. These sites are meant to serve as the primary data-collection and participant-follow-up hubs, leveraging local or regional infrastructure such as public health systems, healthcare delivery organizations, and research networks. Component B funds one coordinating center site that will support cross-site coordination and consistency. While the announcement summary does not detail every coordinating center responsibility, the coordinating center model typically exists to harmonize methods, support shared protocols, facilitate data standardization, promote comparability across locations, and help integrate findings so that results can be interpreted at a broader national level rather than as isolated local studies.

This opportunity is issued by the Department of Health and Human Services, Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), specifically within NCIRD, and it uses a cooperative agreement funding mechanism. A cooperative agreement generally indicates substantial federal involvement beyond what is typical for a standard grant, meaning the CDC is likely to collaborate closely with recipients on program direction, technical approaches, and coordination expectations. The activity category is health, and the CFDA (assistance listing) number associated with the program is 93.185.

In terms of funding scale and competitive landscape, the opportunity anticipated making five awards total, aligning with the two-component structure (up to four surveillance sites plus one coordinating center). The listed award ceiling is $2,000,000, indicating the maximum amount expected per award under the program parameters presented in the summary. The opportunity was created on January 5, 2022, with an original closing date of March 7, 2022, and applications were required to be submitted electronically by 11:59 pm Eastern Time on the due date.

Eligibility is broad and designed to accommodate the mix of public health agencies, research institutions, and community-oriented organizations that may be positioned to conduct PCC surveillance and follow-up. Eligible applicants include state, county, and city or township governments; public and state-controlled institutions of higher education; private institutions of higher education; federally recognized Native American tribal governments; tribal organizations that are not federally recognized governments; public housing authorities/Indian housing authorities; nonprofit organizations both with and without 501(c)(3) status (excluding institutions of higher education in those categories); and other entities as clarified in the opportunity’s additional eligibility text. The eligibility framing signals a desire for partnerships that can reach diverse groups, link to clinical and community data sources, and sustain longitudinal participant engagement.

Overall, Track PCC is aimed at building an organized, multi-site picture of how post-COVID conditions emerge and persist, who is most affected, and what factors influence risk and recovery. By combining local surveillance sites with a single coordinating center, the program is structured to generate more standardized, comparable evidence across different populations and geographies, strengthening the public health understanding of PCC burden and impact across the lifespan.
