Opportunity Information: Apply for CDC RFA OE15 15010501SUPP20
CDC Partnership: Strengthening Public Health Laboratories is a CDC discretionary funding opportunity issued by the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS), Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), under the Center for Surveillance, Epidemiology, and Laboratory Services (CSELS). It is offered as a cooperative agreement, meaning the CDC expects to have substantial involvement in the work alongside the recipient rather than simply issuing funds with minimal interaction. The program is designed to reinforce the capacity and effectiveness of state, local, and territorial public health laboratories (PHLs), which are positioned as a core part of the public health infrastructure because they produce laboratory testing results and other science-based services that public health leaders rely on to make real-time decisions.
The central aim is to ensure PHL systems can detect, characterize, and respond to a wide range of health threats, including new, emerging, and ongoing risks. The opportunity emphasizes how closely laboratory functions connect with other parts of public health practice, especially epidemiology. In practical terms, laboratory findings become actionable information that health departments and policy makers use to identify and prioritize population health threats, track their spread, and design interventions that actually work. The description explicitly references infectious disease response needs, highlighting the COVID-19 emergency response in the United States and globally as an example of the kind of large-scale event that demands strong, flexible laboratory readiness.
From a funding standpoint, the opportunity (Funding Opportunity Number CDC RFA OE15 15010501SUPP20) lists an award ceiling of up to $100,000,000 and anticipates a single award (Expected Awards: 1). It is categorized under the Health funding activity area and is associated with CFDA number 93.322. The eligibility category is listed as "Others," with additional eligibility details referenced in an external section (not provided in the excerpt), which typically means the applicant pool may be limited to specific organizations or partners described elsewhere in the full announcement.
The timeline provided shows the opportunity was created on April 9, 2020, with an original application closing date of April 17, 2020. Applications were required to be submitted electronically by 11:59 p.m. Eastern Time on the due date. Overall, the grant is framed as a high-impact investment intended to strengthen the laboratory backbone of public health so that jurisdictions can more reliably detect threats, integrate lab data with epidemiologic investigations, and support rapid, evidence-based public health action during crises and routine surveillance alike.Apply for CDC RFA OE15 15010501SUPP20
