Grants for Nonprofits - Health

The purpose of this notice of funding opportunity (NOFO) is to announce the availability of supplemental funding for the organizations that were previously awarded funding under Funding Strategy 1 of CDC-RFA-PW-24-0080: Strengthening Public Health Systems and Services through National Partnerships to Improve and Protect the Nation;apos;s Health. This supplemental opportunity is the Funding Strategy 2: Project Plans highlighted on page 12 of 51 in the initial Notice of Funding Opportunity, CDC-RFA-PW24-0080. Per the initial NOFO, organizations will submit Work Plans in Response to Project Plans and budgets that align with the population of focus category and selected population of focus ONLY for which they were awarded funding under Funding Strategy 1. Applications received that do not align with the population of focus of initial award will be deemed non-responsive and will not be considered.The CDC-RFA-PW-24-0080 recipients are eligible to submit applications for new FY24 CIO Project Plans that match the Population of Focus Category (A, B, or C) and Population of Focus Description for which they received initial funding in FY24. This supplemental funding opportunity enables recipients to engage in capacity-building assistance (CBA) priorities as identified in the CIO Project Plans attached to this publication. Recipients may refer to their Funding Strategy 1 Notice of Award to determine the Category and Population of Focus theyre approved to build capacity for under this supplemental opportunity.CBA is defined as activities that strengthen and maintain the infrastructure and resources necessary to sustain or improve system, organizational, community, or individual processes and competencies. CBA is delivered through technical assistance, training, information sharing, technology transfer, or materials development that enables organizations to operate in a comprehensive, responsive, and effective manner. The goal is to fund organizations that have the capability, expertise, resources, and national reach to support public health infrastructure and workforce needs. Recipients will be expected to implement CBA activities in one or more of the strategic areas prioritized under this cooperative agreement: organizational capacity and performance improvement; workforce; data modernization, informatics and information technology; partnership development and engagement; and policy and programs. And all funded activities must build capacity of the approved population of focus outlined in the recipients Funding Strategy 1 Notice of Award.

The National Fish and Wildlife Foundation (NFWF), in partnership with the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA), is soliciting proposals to reduce whale mortality from fishing gear entanglement in Southern California. This grant directly aligns with NFWF's mission to sustain, restore, and enhance the nation's fish, wildlife, plants, and habitats for current and future generations by addressing a critical threat to cetacean populations. The program aims to provide compensatory restoration for injuries to cetaceans caused by the Refugio Beach Oil Spill (RBOS), thereby mitigating past environmental damage and fostering healthier marine ecosystems. The primary beneficiaries of this program are cetaceans in Southern California, particularly those susceptible to entanglement in fishing gear. The impact goals are to increase the capacity of the entanglement response network, improve documentation and disentanglement efforts, and broadly support activities that reduce serious injuries or mortalities from entanglements. This initiative contributes to the foundation's strategic priority of healthy oceans and coasts by safeguarding marine mammals. The program prioritizes several key areas to achieve its goals. These include directly enhancing entanglement response in Southern California, and potentially beyond if it benefits local cetaceans, coordinating with federal, state, and local resource agencies to improve the overall West Coast Marine Mammal Entanglement Response Program, and training and developing volunteer response capacity. Furthermore, proposals should outline how activities will contribute to the development of the overall capacity and infrastructure of the program. Expected outcomes include a more robust and efficient entanglement response network, a reduction in the number of entangled cetaceans, improved survival rates of entangled animals through effective disentanglement, and enhanced coordination among relevant agencies. Measurable results would likely involve metrics such as the number of successful disentanglements, the increase in trained responders, and the documented reduction in entanglement-related mortalities. An estimated $250,000 will be available for a Phase 1 project award, anticipated to last 1-2 years, with a priority geographic focus on the coastlines off Santa Barbara, Ventura, Los Angeles, and Orange Counties.
