Opportunity Information: Apply for CDC RFA CE13 13060501SUPP18

The National Technical Assistance Resource Center for the Prevention of Sexual Violence (Funding Opportunity Number: CDC RFA CE13 13060501SUPP18) is a discretionary cooperative agreement issued by the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), through the National Center for Injury Prevention and Control (NCIPC). The opportunity is rooted in the Violence Against Women Act (VAWA), originally enacted in 1994 and reauthorized in 2013, which elevated national efforts to address sexual violence by strengthening prevention infrastructure and coordinating support across states, localities, and tribal communities.

At the core of this announcement is CDCs Rape Prevention and Education (RPE) program, which provides funding to state health departments to build and sustain capacity for primary prevention of sexual violence. Rather than focusing only on response after harm occurs, primary prevention emphasizes stopping sexual violence before it happens by improving community conditions, norms, and systems that influence risk. In addition to establishing the RPE program, VAWA also designated a National Resource Center for Sexual Assault to serve as a hub for resource information, policy support, training, and technical assistance for state, local, and Indian tribal agencies, including state sexual assault coalitions and local sexual assault programs.

This particular funding notice is a supplemental announcement intended to support a Resource Center that can provide national leadership and hands-on technical assistance to the broader sexual violence prevention field, with a specific emphasis on serving CDC RPE cooperative agreement recipients. In practice, the selected awardee would be expected to function as a national technical assistance resource, offering consultation, training, and guidance that helps recipients implement prevention strategies more effectively, align their work with evidence-informed approaches, and strengthen partnerships across public health and sexual assault service systems. The goal is to elevate the quality and consistency of prevention practice nationwide by ensuring that states and other implementing partners have access to timely expertise, tools, and capacity-building support.

The award mechanism is a cooperative agreement, which generally means CDC anticipates substantial involvement with the funded organization beyond a standard grant. That typically translates into ongoing coordination with CDC, regular communication about priorities and deliverables, and close collaboration to ensure technical assistance meets the evolving needs of RPE recipients and the prevention field.

Funding details indicate an award ceiling of $1,500,000, with one expected award, meaning CDC intended to fund a single national center at this level under this supplemental opportunity. The CFDA number associated with the opportunity is 93.136, and the activity category is health. The opportunity was created on May 25, 2018, with an original application deadline of July 26, 2018, and required electronic submission by 11:59 p.m. Eastern Time on the due date. Eligibility is listed as "Others," with further clarification referenced in an additional eligibility information section (not included in the text provided), suggesting that eligibility may have been limited to specific types of organizations or entities described in the full announcement.

Overall, this opportunity is designed to strengthen national coordination and technical assistance capacity for preventing sexual violence by funding a single, nationally positioned Resource Center to support RPE-funded jurisdictions and the broader network of agencies and programs working on sexual violence prevention.
