Centers for Disease Control - NCIRD

Description

The purpose of this NOFO is to help CDC continue to address and reduce income-based disparities in immunization rates and bolster vaccine equity in Medicaid-enrolled children, adolescents, pregnant people, and adults by facilitating and establishing engagements and partnerships between State Immunization and State Medicaid Programs. This should also augment efforts to foster NOFO award recipient collaboration with these programs to help CDC better understand barriers to immunization for Medicaid-enrolled children, adolescents, pregnant people, and adults and improve immunization rates. This NOFO is intended for two organizations with reach on a national/regional level and capacity for direct communication with state Medicaid program leadership, with existing relationships with Medicaid program leadership in at least 20 states.
