Opportunity Information: Apply for CDC RFA CK18 1804
The grant opportunity titled "Sustaining the Expansion of the Overseas Health Assessment and Management of U.S.-Bound Refugees, Non-Immigrant Visa Applicants and other Migrant Populations" is a CDC cooperative agreement focused on strengthening how infectious diseases are detected, monitored, and prevented among people preparing to travel to the United States, especially refugees. It is administered by the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services through the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), specifically within NCEZID (the National Center for Emerging and Zoonotic Infectious Diseases). The overall intent is to support the International Organization for Migration (IOM) in carrying out overseas health assessment and disease prevention activities that reduce the risk of infectious disease importation while also improving the health of individuals during the resettlement process and protecting the U.S. communities that receive them.
At its core, the program is designed to reinforce prevention and control efforts for infectious diseases, with explicit emphasis on vaccine-preventable diseases. The CDC frames the work around four main objectives. First, the program aims to establish and maintain effective surveillance for infectious diseases among U.S.-bound refugees worldwide, meaning the systematic collection and analysis of health data to identify conditions of concern, detect trends, and flag potential outbreaks or emerging risks before travel occurs. Second, it seeks to evaluate the health status of U.S.-bound refugees in a way that produces actionable evidence for U.S. decision-making, so that overseas medical screening procedures and post-arrival health assessments can be improved and kept aligned with real-world conditions in different regions. Third, it is intended to prevent the importation and subsequent spread of infectious diseases into the United States by identifying and addressing risks earlier in the migration pathway, using screening, referrals, treatment coordination where appropriate, and prevention measures such as immunization. Fourth, it aims to improve the health of refugees during the resettlement process itself, recognizing that early health interventions support better individual outcomes and reduce strain and risk for receiving communities.
This funding opportunity is listed as a discretionary award using a cooperative agreement mechanism, which generally means CDC expects substantial involvement in the project through collaboration, technical input, and ongoing coordination rather than simply issuing funds with minimal interaction. The opportunity number is CDC RFA CK18-1804, and it is associated with CFDA (now Assistance Listing) number 93.283, reflecting its placement within CDC infectious disease and public health program funding. The eligibility category is noted as "Others," with the text indicating that additional eligibility clarification exists in the full announcement; however, the description makes clear that the program is specifically intended to assist IOM in implementing the work, implying that the practical eligible applicant for this award is narrowly defined.
In terms of scale and competition, the opportunity anticipates a single award (Expected Awards: 1) with an award ceiling of $5,000,000. The posting indicates it was created on July 24, 2018, with an original closing date of September 24, 2018, and applications were required to be submitted electronically by 11:59 p.m. Eastern Time on the due date. The stated rationale for the investment is that strong overseas screening, surveillance, and prevention not only protects U.S. public health by reducing the chance that infectious diseases arrive or spread after arrival, but also produces long-term benefits for refugee populations and the communities that support and resettle them. The emphasis on long-term performance outcomes signals that CDC views these activities as foundational public health infrastructure for migration health, rather than short-term, one-off interventions.Apply for CDC RFA CK18 1804
