CDCC RFAs: Community Collaboration Mini-Grants and Rapid Pilots
We announced two new funding opportunities to expand our important work to increase COVID-19 testing in communities hardest hit by the pandemic. The deadline for application for both opportunities is April 16, 2021. Application instructions and a communication kit to spread the word about these opportunities throughout your networks are available here.

Community Mini-Grants
Community organizations can apply for up to $50,000 in funds to support increased testing for COVID-19 through the RADx-UP Community Collaboration Mini-Grant Program. These funds are available to community-serving organizations, faith-based organizations, community-based clinics, and tribal nations and organizations. Funds can be used to help advance capacity, training, support, and community experience with COVID-19 testing initiatives. This RFA seeks to support the inclusion of additional community partners and stakeholder groups that are not currently part of the RADx-UP program through CDCC sub awards.

Funds can be used to support personnel costs, contracted service costs (transportation, translation, and interpretation, etc.), and non-personnel costs (participant incentives, information and technology equipment, etc.) Please share this opportunity with partners in your community.
