Regional Centers for Public Health Preparedness and Response: The purpose of the NOFO is to establish and maintain a network of Regional Centers for Public Health Preparedness and Response to increase implementation of evidence-based strategies and interventions (EBSIs) and to improve public health preparedness and response, as informed by the needs of the communities involved. Support will be provided for up to ten centers to determine and support implementation of activities needed to increase use of EBSIs that will improve public health preparedness and response, as informed by the needs of the communities as described in regional workplans. The goal is to fund one center in each of the 10 HHS Regions. Each center will1) Coordinate relevant activities with applicable State, local, and Tribal health departments and officials, health care facilities, and health care coalitions to improve public health preparedness and response, as informed by the needs of the community, or communities involved.2) Develop and implement activities to support focus areas and objectives created by a regional coordinating body in 2023-24.3) As determined necessary by the CDC, and based on the availability of funding, support further implementation of evidence-based practices, or conduct research, evaluation, translation or dissemination necessary to address active or anticipated public health emergencies.4) One center will be awarded additional funds to support coordination and convening of centers and provide technical assistance and training as needed.
