Opportunity Information: Apply for CDC RFA DP22 2202
The grant opportunity titled "Cancer Prevention and Control Programs for State, Territorial, and Tribal Organizations" (Funding Opportunity Number CDC RFA DP22-2202) is a CDC Division of Cancer Prevention and Control (DCPC) funding announcement that uses a cooperative agreement model to support a nationwide, coordinated cancer prevention and control effort. Issued by the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services through the CDC (NCCDPHP), it was created on October 28, 2021, with an original application closing date of January 4, 2022. The program sits within the public health funding activity category (CFDA 93.898) and is designed to help jurisdictions run integrated cancer initiatives that combine prevention, screening, survivorship support, and high-quality data systems to track cancer burden.
At its core, the NOFO is structured around three big public health goals: eliminating cancers that can be prevented, ensuring people receive appropriate screening at the right time to improve outcomes, and supporting cancer survivors so they can live longer and healthier lives. The CDC frames this as a comprehensive and coordinated approach, meaning applicants are expected to connect clinical services, community and health system interventions, and surveillance infrastructure rather than treating them as isolated projects. A major emphasis is advancing health equity, with the underlying intent that populations experiencing barriers to care, underinsurance, geographic isolation, or other inequities benefit directly through improved access, quality, and follow-up.
The opportunity funds three established national cancer programs under a single umbrella. First is the National Breast and Cervical Cancer Early Detection Program (NBCCEDP), which focuses on delivering breast and cervical cancer screening and diagnostic services for women with lower incomes who are uninsured or underinsured. In addition to paying for clinical services, NBCCEDP also supports implementing evidence-based interventions in the clinics that serve these populations, reflecting a focus on improving systems of care (for example, strengthening reminders, follow-up processes, and clinic workflows that increase appropriate screening and timely diagnostic resolution).
Second is the National Comprehensive Cancer Control Program (NCCCP), which supports the work of cancer coalitions that bring together partners across sectors to plan and implement evidence-based cancer control strategies. These efforts are guided by jurisdiction-wide cancer plans, with coalitions expected to use both individual and shared resources to carry out strategies that make sense for their specific state, territory, or tribal context. The emphasis here is on organized planning, partnership-driven implementation, and using proven approaches rather than one-off activities.
Third is the National Program of Cancer Registries (NPCR), which supports population-based central cancer registry programs. This component is aimed at ensuring jurisdictions can collect, manage, analyze, and report cancer data in a way that accurately reflects cancer incidence, patterns, and trends. In practice, strong registry capacity supports decision-making across the other components by identifying where the burden is highest, which groups are most affected, how outcomes change over time, and whether prevention and screening programs are reaching the people they are intended to serve.
Operationally, this is a discretionary funding opportunity with an expected 198 awards and an award ceiling of up to $8,000,000. Eligibility is listed broadly (with additional eligibility details referenced in the full announcement), and the overall design signals the CDCs intention to fund a wide range of state, territorial, and tribal public health entities and partners capable of delivering clinical services, coordinating coalition-based planning and implementation, and maintaining registry infrastructure. In summary, DP22-2202 is meant to strengthen the full cancer control continuum in each jurisdiction: prevent cancers where possible, find cancers earlier through timely screening and follow-up, improve quality and coordination through comprehensive planning, and measure progress and remaining gaps through reliable surveillance data.Apply for CDC RFA DP22 2202
