Overview
These competitive grant programs expand and advance CDC's work with national partners on education, outreach, and public awareness activities for a variety of chronic diseases for which there is a clear disparity in public and professional awareness and do not have dedicated CDC funding.
Why it matters
This approach will strengthen the science base for prevention, education, and public health awareness for a variety of chronic diseases that are often unrecognized or poorly understood and do not currently have dedicated resources that would lead to meaningful patient outcomes.
Recipients focus on data dissemination, education, and public awareness activities that will shape effective, evidence-based clinical and population-level education and awareness approaches for public health impact and health equity.
