Opportunity Information: Apply for CDC RFA DP15 151403CONT17
The Paul Coverdell National Acute Stroke Prevention Program is a Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) funding opportunity under the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (HHS), administered through CDCs National Center for Chronic Disease Prevention and Health Promotion (NCCDPHP). The opportunity focuses on health systems work to improve the quality of care for people experiencing acute stroke, with the broader goal of preventing stroke-related death and disability by strengthening how quickly and effectively patients are recognized, treated, and managed across the continuum of emergency and acute care. As a federal program bearing the Paul Coverdell name, it sits in the long-running national effort to improve stroke outcomes by promoting evidence-based clinical practices, better coordination among providers, and data-driven quality improvement.
This particular listing is a continuation award opportunity, meaning it is intended to extend or continue support for existing program activities rather than launch an entirely new, first-time initiative. The funding mechanism is a cooperative agreement, which signals that CDC is expected to have substantial involvement in the work beyond simply issuing funds. In practice, cooperative agreements typically involve ongoing technical assistance, shared performance expectations, participation in CDC-led learning networks or reporting structures, and a strong emphasis on measurable outcomes and accountability. The activity category is health, and the program is associated with CFDA number 93.946, which is used to track federal assistance for public health efforts related to chronic disease and prevention priorities, including stroke systems improvement.
The opportunity is identified by Funding Opportunity Number CDC RFA DP15-151403CONT17, indicating it is tied to a specific request for applications series and that it is a continuation cycle (as reflected by "CONT"). The creation date in the source data is January 6, 2017, and the original closing date was March 1, 2017. The listing anticipated about 10 awards. The award ceiling is shown as 0, which usually means the ceiling was not specified in the simplified summary field or that the precise cap was determined elsewhere in the full announcement, budget guidance, or continuation terms. In many continuation contexts, awards are often based on previously negotiated budgets, the availability of appropriations, and satisfactory progress on required program measures rather than a single published maximum.
Eligibility is described as "Others (see text field entitled Additional Information on Eligibility for clarification)," which indicates that eligibility is restricted or specialized and would be defined in the full funding announcement rather than the short summary. For programs like Coverdell, eligible applicants are often state health departments, territories, or other public health entities that can coordinate statewide or regional stroke care quality improvement efforts, although the exact eligible applicant types for this continuation would need to be confirmed in the detailed eligibility section referenced in the original posting.
Overall, the key takeaway is that this is a CDC-run continuation cooperative agreement supporting organized, data-informed improvements in acute stroke care. It is designed to help funded jurisdictions or organizations sustain and expand established stroke quality improvement activities, strengthen coordination among hospitals, emergency medical services, clinicians, and public health partners, and use performance data to reduce treatment delays and improve patient outcomes.Apply for CDC RFA DP15 151403CONT17
