This grant is for a cooperative agreement focused on significantly improving public health outcomes by preventing and controlling chronic diseases in the U.S. territories and freely associated states. This initiative addresses the unique challenges these regions face, such as high disease burden, limited infrastructure, and strained healthcare systems, which hinder progress compared to the continental U.S. The primary purpose is to reduce disability and mortality rates from chronic diseases by decreasing modifiable risk factors. Evidence-based strategies will target tobacco use prevention, diabetes management, and oral health disparities. The opportunity includes a required Core Component for broad chronic disease reduction and an optional Oral Health Component, enhancing tailored interventions for these vulnerable populations.

| Description: | Six out of ten adults living in the United States have at least one chronic disease. The cost of managing individuals with chronic conditions is a significant portion of the nation’s healthcare expenses. The United States has made progress in chronic disease prevention and control over recent decades. However, similar advancements have not been made in the U.S. territories and freely associated states. The U.S. territories and freely associated states include: American Samoa The Commonwealth of the Northern Mariana Islands (CNMI) The Federated States of Micronesia (FSM) Guam Puerto Rico The Republic of the Marshall Islands (RMI) The Republic of Palau The U.S. Virgin Islands The unique challenges these islands face make addressing chronic disease particularly complex. These challenges include: High disease burden. Dispersed populations. Limited infrastructure. Diverse cultures and languages. Vulnerability to natural disasters. Strained healthcare systems. High healthcare costs. This cooperative agreement will support integrated, evidence-based strategies and activities to prevent and manage chronic disease in the U.S. territories and freely associated states. This notice of funding opportunity (NOFO) aims to reduce disability and death rates associated with chronic diseases by decreasing the prevalence of modifiable risk factors that contribute to chronic diseases in these islands. Focus areas include: Preventing and reducing tobacco use and secondhand smoke exposure. Preventing and managing diabetes. Improving oral health disparities. There are two components to this NOFO. The first is a required Core Component, which uses evidence-based strategies to promote health and reduce chronic disease. The second is an optional, competitive Oral Health Component, which addresses oral disease with evidence-based interventions and practices. |
