Opportunity Title:
Strengthening U.S. Public Health Infrastructure, Workforce, and Data Systems
Opportunity Number:
CDC-RFA-OE22-2203
Description:
The COVID-19 pandemic has emphasized the critical importance of a robust public health system. The pandemic also accentuated long-standing weaknesses and created new challenges to the U.S. public health infrastructure. Public health departments and other public health partners need to continue their work to respond to COVID-19 and prepare for other public health emergencies that arise in the future. Moreover, COVID-19 has affected nearly every aspect of healthcare and public health, laying bare disparities and gaps in some conditions and worsening others. Public health agencies need the capacity to regain their footing in these areas and then accelerate their efforts. This funding is a first of its kind, non-categorical and cross-cutting programs, intended to help meet critical infrastructure and workforce needs in the short-term; and it should also make possible strategic investments that will have lasting effects on public health agencies across the United States. To that end, it will support strategically strengthening public health capacity and systems related to the workforce, foundational capabilities, data modernization, physical infrastructure and support from national public health partners.
