Strengthening Vaccine-Preventable Disease Prevention and Response
CDC’s Immunization Services Division (ISD) Notice of Funding Opportunity (NOFO) continues and builds upon the ongoing work of the Section 317 and Vaccines for Children (VFC) Programs.
These programs remain central to the U. S. immunization program infrastructure to achieve high vaccination coverage, low incidence of vaccine-preventable disease (VPD) and maintain or improve response to vaccine-preventable public health threats.
The VFC Program provides vaccines to children whose parents or guardians may not be able to afford them.
Serving as an important contributor to health equity, the program helps support fair and just opportunities for all children to get their recommended vaccinations on schedule and achieve their highest level of health.
Section 317 of the Public Health Service Act helps meet the costs of prevention health services, and 317 priorities include preserving immunization infrastructure, maintaining vaccine supply as a safety net for uninsured adults, and responding to VPD outbreaks.
Activities in this funding opportunity are included within the following seven priority strategies.
• Strengthen Program Infrastructure and Management.
• Increase Vaccine Access.
• Improve Vaccination Equity.
• Promote Vaccine Confidence and Demand.
• Enhance Data and Evaluation.There are three components in this NOFO, and you are required to apply to all three components.
• Component 1:
Core.
• Component 2:
Rapid small-scale response to VPD outbreaks or other public health emergencies (funded).
• Component 3:
Rapid large-scale response to VPD outbreaks or other public health emergencies (approved but unfunded).

• Local health agencies or their bona fide agents, if they serve a city population* of 1.4 million or more (i.e., Chicago, Houston, New York City, Philadelphia, San Antonio).
◦ If the city does not have a public health department, then the county covering the jurisdiction may apply (i.e., Los Angeles, CA covered by Los Angeles County and Phoenix, AZ covered by Maricopa County).
• All U. S. territories and the Freely Associated States in the Caribbean and Pacific (American Samoa, Commonwealth of the Northern Mariana Islands, Guam, Puerto Rico, the U. S. Virgin Islands, the Freely Associated States of the Federated States of Micronesia, Republic of Palau, and Republic of the Marshall Islands).
