Opportunity Information: Apply for CDC RFA EH17 1704
The CDC funding opportunity titled "Lead Exposure Registry of Flint Residents - Michigan" (CDC RFA EH17-1704) was a FY 2017 discretionary grant designed to help the City of Flint and the State of Michigan build and operate a public health registry for people exposed to lead-contaminated drinking water during the Flint River water source period, specifically April 25, 2014 through October 15, 2015. The CDC set aside about $3.6 million for this effort, with the intent of creating a structured system that could identify affected residents, document their exposure and related health information, connect them with services, and track outcomes over time in a way that supports both public health action and longer-term policy decisions.
The core purpose of the grant was capacity-building and implementation across several connected tasks. First, the project was expected to develop practical strategies for community outreach, stakeholder engagement, and training so that residents and local partners would understand the registry, trust it, and participate in it. Second, the awardee would design and build the registry itself, including defining eligibility criteria (left to the applicant to specify) and creating the processes needed to identify eligible Flint residents. Third, the project would actively recruit and enroll residents, collect baseline information at enrollment, and provide referrals based on identified needs. Fourth, the registry was expected to include a clear and reliable referral process that links participants to comprehensive and coordinated services intended to reduce or mitigate the effects of lead exposure, which can involve medical follow-up, developmental screening, educational supports, and other wraparound resources. Fifth, the project was expected to establish what data would be followed over time and how often follow-up would occur, focusing on measures of exposure, health indicators, and developmental milestones, as well as documenting which interventions, services, or enrichment activities registrants chose to use during the project period.
A key recommendation embedded in the opportunity is that the registry should be designed not only as a list of exposed individuals, but as a tool to evaluate whether the services and interventions people choose after referral are associated with improved health outcomes and developmental progress. In other words, the CDC encouraged a design that can support learning and accountability: tracking participation in services alongside changes in health and development, so decision-makers can better understand what approaches are most helpful for the community. The resulting information was intended to inform important policy and administrative decisions for both the City of Flint and the State of Michigan, making the registry useful for planning, resource allocation, and program improvement.
Administratively, this was a single-source eligibility Notice of Funding Opportunity, meaning it was not broadly open competition. Eligibility was limited to Michigan State University, and the CDC anticipated making one award. While the CDC described approximately $3.6 million in FY 2017 funds available, the NOFO set an award ceiling of $6,000,000, and stated that any application requesting more than that ceiling would be considered nonresponsive and would not be reviewed. The original closing date for applications was June 28, 2017. The opportunity falls under the CDC National Center for Environmental Health (NCEH) and is associated with CFDA 93.197, reflecting its environmental health and public health tracking focus.Apply for CDC RFA EH17 1704
