Funding Opportunity Details 

RFA #40359

This RFA includes two application Paths for Applicants. The two Paths are based on the Applicant’s organization type and include one or more strategies. Applicants may apply for only one path.

There are guidance documents specifically for the Health System Path and Community-Based Organization Path.

The Health System Path is specific to organizations that are health systems. For the purposes of this RFA, a health system is defined as:

  • Individual health clinic (includes provider-owned clinic).
  • Federally Qualified Health Center (FQHC).
  • Community health center.
  • Hospital.
  • Hospital networks for the use and benefit of a hospital within their network (may include hospital foundations).
  • Safety net clinic.
  • Rural health center.

The Community-Based Organization Path is specific to organizations that are community-based organizations. For the purposes of this RFA, a community-based organization (CBO) is defined as:

  • A public or private nonprofit organization of demonstrated effectiveness that:
    • (A) is representative of a community or significant segments of a community; and
    • (B) provides educational or related services to individuals in the community.
  • For the purposes of the Cancer Prevention and Early Detection program, a CBO cannot meet the definition of a Health System.

Who should apply

Any organization interested in implementing one or more strategies to increase and sustain health equity as it relates to cancer prevention and early detection are encouraged to apply. 

Government Organizations

Government Organizations have a separate funding process and do not have to apply to the CPED RFA. Information for Government Organizations can be found here.
