Opportunity Information: Apply for CDC RFA DP22 2207
The Statewide Perinatal Quality Collaboratives (PQCs) funding opportunity (CDC RFA DP22-2207) is a CDC cooperative agreement designed to strengthen and expand statewide efforts to improve maternal and infant health outcomes through structured quality improvement (QI) work. PQCs are described as established, multidisciplinary networks that bring together clinicians, hospitals, health systems, public health partners, and other stakeholders to implement evidence-based practices and make measurable, population-level improvements in perinatal care across an entire state or multi-state region. A core expectation is that PQCs do more than run isolated projects; they help healthcare facilities learn from each other, provide hands-on technical assistance for QI implementation, and then spread successful interventions, policy changes, and care practice improvements statewide.
A central theme of this notice of funding opportunity is building capacity so PQCs can move faster and achieve clearer, measurable results, while also ensuring that the benefits of improved care reach all communities fairly. The NOFO explicitly emphasizes equity, meaning applicants and awardees are expected to incorporate a health equity lens into QI initiatives so that improvements are not limited to certain hospitals, regions, or patient groups. In practice, that focus implies attention to disparities in perinatal outcomes and support for strategies that help close gaps tied to geography, race and ethnicity, socioeconomic status, and other factors that influence access and quality of care.
The opportunity is organized into two components. Component A focuses on strengthening individual state or multi-state PQCs so they can rapidly design and execute population-level perinatal QI initiatives, support participating facilities, and demonstrate measurable improvements. Component A also places particular weight on equitable distribution of benefits, reinforcing the expectation that QI activities should be implemented and evaluated in ways that reach high-need settings and populations and that improvements can be demonstrated across different groups rather than averaging out gains that may mask persistent inequities.
Component B is more national in scope and is meant to support the broader infrastructure that helps PQCs succeed everywhere, not just in one state. Under Component B, the recipient provides technical assistance, training, and capacity-building support to PQCs across the United States to increase the overall uptake and effectiveness of perinatal QI initiatives nationwide. This component also includes a strong equity integration role: the Component B awardee is expected to work with interested PQCs to embed a health equity perspective into QI design, implementation, measurement, and dissemination, with the goal of improving perinatal outcomes while also making sure gains are shared equitably.
From an administrative standpoint, the program is offered by the Department of Health and Human Services, Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), within NCCDPHP, and it is categorized as a discretionary cooperative agreement (meaning CDC is expected to have substantial involvement, often through collaboration, guidance, and coordinated support rather than acting solely as a pass-through funder). The CFDA number listed is 93.946. The award ceiling is $750,000, and CDC anticipated making 23 awards under this announcement. The original posting shows a creation date of April 6, 2022 and an original application deadline of June 6, 2022, with electronic submissions due by 11:59 pm ET on the due date.
Eligibility is broad and includes many types of entities that could lead or support statewide perinatal improvement work, such as state, county, city, and special district governments; public and private institutions of higher education; federally recognized tribal governments and other tribal organizations; public housing authorities/Indian housing authorities; nonprofit organizations with or without 501(c)(3) status; for-profit organizations (including small businesses); and other entities as allowed by the additional eligibility language. Overall, the NOFO is aimed at building durable statewide and national capability to run effective perinatal QI collaboratives, spread proven clinical and system changes, and improve maternal and infant outcomes with an explicit requirement to address equity so that improvements reach all populations.Apply for CDC RFA DP22 2207
