Description
This funding opportunity from the CDC’s National Center for HIV, Viral Hepatitis, STD, and TB Prevention (NCHHSTP) aims to support U.S. state, territorial, and select city health departments in tracking, preventing, and controlling three major sexually transmitted infections (STIs): syphilis, gonorrhea, and chlamydia. The program aligns with the Sexually Transmitted Infections National Strategic Plan 2021–2025, focusing on preventing new STIs, reducing adverse health outcomes, implementing prevention innovations, and targeting populations disproportionately affected by STIs. Awardees are expected to use local surveillance data to identify priority populations and to collaborate with partners to address comorbidities and broader sexual health needs.
