There are two types of CDC proposals:

  • Five Year Cooperative Agreement

  • Supplemental Proposals

There are three rounds of funding for CDC grant proposals

  • Round 1 – Notice of Funding Opportunity is released by CDC

    • Project Leads prepares work plans and budgets for the proposal based on the specific level of funding available 

    • CAD leadership reviews, revises, and approves work plans and budgets

    • Finance (Director and CFO) provides a final review and approval of work plans and budgets 

    • Grants Administration team uploads continuation work plans and/or CIO response to project plans to CSTLTS Recipient Dashboard and GrantSolutions and when applicable to Grants.gov

      • Note: If it is a new CIO project, Federal forms are required to be submitted, as approved by CFO, in Grants.gov

    • Proposal Review Process

      • After submitted, CDC Technical Monitors reviews each project proposal

    • Notice of Awards – Once approved, CDC issues a Notice of Awards (NoA). The NoA details the amount funded for the project and provides guidance on any additional requirements for revisions or information.

  • Round 2 – Budget Revisions, Technical Reviews and New CIO Projects (i.e. supplemental proposals)

    • May be required for some proposals

    • CAD leadership and Project Leads revise proposals as needed and prepares new supplemental work plans and budgets as applicable

    • Once approved by CAD leadership, work plans and budgets are sent to Finance for approval

    • Grants Administration team uploads revised continuation work plans and/or CIO response to project plans to CSTLTS Recipient Dashboard and GrantSolutions and when applicable to Grants.gov

    • Proposal Review Process

      • After the revised project proposal /CIO project proposal is submitted, CDC Technical Monitors reviews each project proposal

    • Notice of Awards – Once approved, CDC issues a revised Notice of Awards (NoA). 

  • Round 3 – New Funding/Supplemental Funding (if applicable)

    • CDC may have a third round of funding  

    • Process for Round 3 is the same as Round 1 (see above)
