{"abstract":"The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) and the Agency for Toxic Substances and Disease Registry (ATSDR) announce the availability of funds in the CDC/ATSDR Federal Assistance Funding Book (FAFB) for Fiscal Year 2004. This edition of the FAFB is a review of CDC and ATSDR Fiscal Year 2004 competitive assistance programs. Financial assistance programs include grants and cooperative agreements. The FAFB contains most of CDC's and ATSDR's new competitive opportunities; however, additional grant and cooperative agreement opportunities may become available because of programmatic planning and Congressional action. The funding opportunities will be published in the Federal Register, CDC's and ATSDR's Internet Web site, which can be obtained by accessing http://www.cdc.gov/od/pgo/funding/grantmain.htm, and in addition may be published in the NIH Guide For Grants and Contracts. CDC and ATSDR, as well as the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS), has been very busy this year. In support of health related disease control and prevention activities, we are striving to provide simpler avenues for eligible organizations to apply for funding. We are working in cooperation with HHS and other organizations within HHS to improve our processes related to delivering CDC funding opportunities and awarding grants to eligible applicants. We are currently planning to deploy a new grants management information system, and have implemented processes to streamline our grant making operations. We are participating in pilot programs being conducted throughout the federal government that are designed to move the granting of federal dollars into the world of electronic government. CDC's streamlining efforts are part of HHS' activities to implement the Federal Financial Assistance Management Improvement Act (Pub. L. 106- 207). CDC and ATSDR are committed to maximum competition for its grants and cooperative agreement opportunities, and will strive to provide support for all eligible entities that seek to apply for CDC's and ATSDR's financial assistance programs.
