Opportunity Information: Apply for CDC RFA PS17 1712
Assuring Comprehensive Prevention and Treatment for Families Affected by HIV to Eliminate Perinatal HIV Transmission in the United States (CDC RFA PS17-1712) is a CDC cooperative agreement designed to strengthen and modernize national efforts to end mother-to-child (perinatal) HIV transmission. The opportunity builds on the existing Elimination of Mother-to-Child HIV Transmission Stakeholders Group (EMCT-SG), which CDC originally convened to support and help operationalize the CDC Framework to Eliminate Mother-to-Child HIV Transmission. In practice, this stakeholders group functions as a field-shaping body: it brings forward ideas from within the group and from the broader public health and clinical communities, then influences perinatal HIV prevention through activities carried out by its members and through the institutions those members represent.
A central aim of the award is expansion, both in scope and in who is involved. Rather than continuing with a narrower stakeholders group, the grant funds the creation of a broader, more connected network of professionals who have direct roles in perinatal HIV prevention and care. This expansion explicitly aligns with priorities in the National HIV/AIDS Strategy 2020 Research and Programmatic Agenda for Mental Health and Substance Use, with emphasis on routine screening, integrated care and prevention services, and meeting the needs of key populations. The framing recognizes that eliminating perinatal transmission is not only about antiretroviral treatment and obstetric protocols, but also about addressing mental health and substance use factors that can affect engagement in prenatal care, HIV treatment adherence, and continuity of care for pregnant and postpartum people and their families.
The funded recipient is expected to work closely with CDC to update the CDC Framework for the Elimination of Mother-to-Child HIV Transmission so it reflects current HIV epidemiology in the United States and the real-world systems through which prevention and care are now delivered. This includes adapting the framework to contemporary clinical practice, public health infrastructure, and service delivery environments, which increasingly require cross-system coordination among HIV programs, prenatal and obstetric care, behavioral health providers, and community-based supports.
Beyond updating the framework, the grantee must convene a new and broader stakeholders group that includes public health professionals and clinical care providers positioned to implement the updated framework. The intent is to ensure the framework is not simply a document but a usable, adopted approach supported by the right mix of expertise and authority across jurisdictions and care settings. Related to implementation, the grantee will also develop and disseminate strategies that jurisdictions can use to describe their progress toward elimination of perinatal HIV transmission, or to document maintenance of elimination once achieved. That element signals a strong focus on measurement, communication, and shared standards for how elimination progress is tracked and conveyed.
Another major deliverable is the development and dissemination of best-practice models for integrated service delivery. Specifically, the opportunity calls for models that connect obstetric and gynecologic care with HIV care as well as mental health and substance use treatment services. The integrated-care emphasis reflects the practical reality that fragmentation across these services can lead to missed opportunities for HIV testing, delayed treatment initiation, challenges with retention in care, and gaps during pregnancy and postpartum periods, all of which can increase risk for perinatal transmission.
Finally, the grantee is expected to strengthen the perinatal HIV prevention workforce by creating educational and best-practice-sharing networks that bring together clinical providers and public health professionals. This workforce networking function is meant to accelerate learning across locations and institutions, spread effective approaches more quickly, and create a sustained community of practice focused on eliminating perinatal HIV transmission nationwide.
