Public Health Preparedness and Response (PHPR) Cooperative Agreement for All-Hazards Public Health Emergencies: Zika 2016: This funding opportunity announcement outlines CDC guidance, technical, and financial assistance in response to a potential outbreak of Zika virus disease (ZVD) in the continental United States, Hawaii, and U.S. territories and freely associated states. CDC is providing $25 million in funding to 53 state, territorial, and local health departments based on current Zika virus transmission at the time of this announcement, jurisdictions likely to become affected, and evidence of historical arboviral patterns, to support accelerated public health preparedness planning and operational readiness for responding to Zika. The funding is intended to address planning and operational response gaps for ZVD and to assure state, local, and territorial operational readiness for ZVD. Funding cannot be used for activities already covered by other federal grants and/or cooperative agreements. Expected outcomes include:

Further refinement of jurisdictional Zika response plans including identification of jurisdictional gaps and coordinated planning with CDC's Epidemiology and Laboratory Capacity (ELC) for Infectious Diseases cooperative agreement activities
Establishing jurisdictional incident management teams for Zika response and points of contact for the U.S. Pregnancy Registry
Exercising jurisdictional response plan components
Developing risk communication plans and culturally appropriate messaging designed to inform the public about ZVD risks and protective measures
Identifying jurisdictional resources for human surveillance, vector surveillance and control, and maternal-child health services including comprehensive services for families impacted by ZVD
Implementing administrative preparedness guidelines for rapid implementation of service contracts
Provision of public health emergency management expertise, support, and coordination across all areas of the response to address operational gaps and coordinate jurisdictional resources, including resources awarded through other federal funding opportunity announcements
