Opportunity Information: Apply for CDC RFA OE17 17020401SUPP20
This CDC grant opportunity, titled "Increasing Public Awareness and Provider Education About Primary Immunodeficiency Disease" (CDC-RFA-OE-17-1702), is designed to strengthen the United States public health system's ability to address primary immunodeficiency (PID) diseases by expanding both physician education and broader public health awareness. The central idea is to improve how quickly PID is recognized in clinical settings and, as a result, improve health outcomes for people living with primary immunodeficiency diseases. Rather than focusing on direct clinical services, the program emphasizes education, communication, and dissemination of credible, evidence-based information so that more patients are identified earlier and connected to appropriate care.
The main objective is national-level dissemination of educational information aimed at a wide mix of audiences who influence recognition, diagnosis, and management of PID. These audiences include public and private health care providers, educators, third-party payers, families impacted by PID, and other stakeholders who can help reduce delays in diagnosis and improve long-term outcomes. In practice, this means the funded effort is expected to create and spread educational materials and messaging that help clinicians and decision-makers recognize warning signs, understand diagnostic pathways, and appreciate the public health importance of PID. The broader public awareness component is intended to help families and communities better understand PID and support timely medical evaluation when symptoms suggest immune dysfunction.
The opportunity is administered within the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) through the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), specifically associated with the Office of Genomics and Precision Public Health (OGPPH) under the Deputy Director for Public Health Science and Surveillance (DDPHSS). This placement signals that the work is meant to be grounded in evidence-based public health practice and aligned with CDC priorities such as advancing evidence-based health policies, preventing illness and premature death, and supporting state, tribal, and local health departments. The program also connects to CDC efforts to generate reliable information that can inform policy and public health programs in genomics and precision public health, with an emphasis on improving health care delivery and helping contain costs through earlier and more accurate identification of disease.
The grant explicitly aligns with Healthy People 2020/2030 priorities, particularly in areas related to education, community-based programs, and health communication. By concentrating resources on educational and communication strategies where genomics and related approaches can enhance prevention and earlier detection, the program supports broader national goals around prevention, wellness, and higher-value, safer, and more effective health care. The underlying public health logic is that earlier recognition of PID can reduce preventable complications, avoid repeated ineffective treatments, and improve quality of life, while also potentially lowering downstream health system costs.
From an administrative standpoint, this is a discretionary grant funding opportunity (CFDA 93.980) with eligibility listed as unrestricted, meaning a wide range of entity types may apply as long as they meet any additional criteria described in the full announcement. The opportunity anticipated a single award (ExpectedAwards: 1) with an award ceiling of $5,607,500.
