The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) is forecasting a funding opportunity titled "Developing and Disseminating Strategies to Build Sustainable Lupus Awareness, Knowledge, Skills, and Partnerships." This initiative aims to support national organizations in reducing the time to lupus diagnoses, improving care coordination, and enhancing the quality of life for individuals living with lupus, particularly among underserved populations. The program will focus on two key strategies: increasing healthcare provider awareness and promoting effective lupus self-management tools. The total estimated funding for this program is $17.5 million, with individual awards ranging from $1.4 million to $1.8 million, and applications are expected to be submitted by May 2, 2025. Interested applicants can reach out to Stephanie Hinton at 678-938-9722 or via email at qxk8@cdc.gov for further information.
