Opportunity Information: Apply for CDC RFA DD22 2201
The National Partnerships to Address Prenatal Alcohol and Other Substance Use and Fetal Alcohol Spectrum Disorders opportunity (CDC RFA DD22-2201) is a Centers for Disease Control and Prevention cooperative agreement run through HHS/CDC, specifically the National Center on Birth Defects and Developmental Disabilities (NCBDDD). It targets a persistent and widespread public health problem: alcohol use during pregnancy, other substance use during pregnancy, and the resulting fetal alcohol spectrum disorders (FASDs). The CDC cites recent surveillance indicating that nearly 1 in 7 pregnant people report current drinking, about 1 in 20 report binge drinking in the past 30 days, and that both current use and binge drinking during pregnancy rose slightly in the United States from 2011 to 2018. The opportunity also highlights that alcohol use in pregnancy frequently occurs alongside other substances (polysubstance use), and underscores the potential scope of impact by referencing expert estimates that up to 1 in 20 U.S. school-aged children may have an FASD, even though comprehensive national estimates across the full spectrum are limited.
The overall purpose of the funding is to strengthen FASD prevention and improve early identification and management of infants and children living with FASDs by using a coordinated, collaborative framework built around national partner organizations. Rather than focusing on a single local program, the structure is designed to leverage organizations with broad reach so that consistent, evidence-based practices and messages can move through clinical systems, public health networks, and community-based settings. The CDC’s intent is to fund multiple recipients (an anticipated nine awards) that collectively push the field forward by spreading training, tools, recommendations, and aligned public health communications, while also building stronger connections between healthcare providers, public health practitioners, and community supports.
The project is planned as a four-year effort, organized into four 12-month budget periods, with an anticipated start date of September 30, 2022. Because the instrument is a cooperative agreement, recipients should expect active involvement from CDC in areas such as aligning strategies with the NOFO’s goals, coordinating across funded projects, supporting dissemination approaches, and emphasizing performance measurement and evaluation. The grant listing notes an award ceiling of 0, which typically signals that applicants should rely on the NOFO text for specific funding ranges or that ceilings vary by component or are otherwise not captured in the summary record.
Programmatically, the NOFO emphasizes several major strategy areas. One core element is training and capacity-building for organizations that serve people of reproductive age (including those who are pregnant) and for organizations that serve children and families. This includes promoting screening and brief intervention approaches for alcohol and other substances, improving provider and system readiness to discuss prenatal substance use in a consistent and effective way, and strengthening the ability of pediatric and family-serving systems to recognize, identify, and manage FASDs earlier. Another major element is the development and dissemination of evidence-based recommendations and messaging through national, regional, and health system channels. The messaging focus spans both prevention (reducing or eliminating alcohol and other substance use among people who are pregnant or might become pregnant) and follow-up care (encouraging early identification and appropriate management for children who may be affected).
A further priority is building or participating in a champions network. This concept is aimed at creating a visible, credible group of leaders and messengers who can galvanize support, normalize evidence-based practices, share resources, and amplify consistent communication around FASD prevention and early identification. In addition, the NOFO calls for strengthening community, state, and local capacity by better linking clinical and public health partners, with the practical goal of reaching affected populations using effective programs and practices. Finally, the opportunity stresses the need for coordination across funded projects so that materials and guidance stay consistent, and for evaluation of program strategies to understand what is being implemented, how well it is working, and where adjustments are needed to improve reach and outcomes.
Eligibility is broad and includes state, county, and local governments; special districts; independent school districts; public and private institutions of higher education; federally recognized tribal governments and other tribal organizations; public housing authorities; nonprofits with and without 501(c)(3) status; for-profit entities (including small businesses); and other entities as allowed by the additional eligibility language in the full announcement. The opportunity was posted March 2, 2022, with an original closing date of May 2, 2022, and required electronic submission by 11:59 pm Eastern Time on the due date. Overall, this funding is structured to build a national-level, partner-driven approach that improves prevention of prenatal alcohol and other substance exposure while also strengthening early identification and long-term management supports for children and families affected by FASDs.Apply for CDC RFA DD22 2201
