- What it does
- To: (1) To maintain, and operate academic-based centers for high-quality research and demonstration with respect to health promotion and disease prevention; (2) to establish linkages, where applicable, between ongoing, basic research in a wide array of fields and applied research in disease prevention and health promotion; (3) to bring the knowledge and expertise of academic health centers to bear on practical public health problems; (4) to field test and rigorously evaluate more cost-effective methods and strategies for preventing unnecessary illness and promoting good health; (5) to shorten the time lag between the development of new and proven effective disease prevention and health promotion techniques and their widespread application, and; 6) to involve the community in the development, conduct, and implementation of prevention research. Prevention Research Centers will: (1) focus on the major causes of death and disability, with an emphasis on underserved and vulnerable populations (2) improve public health practice through community-based participatory research, and (3) design, test, disseminate, or translate effective public health programs at the state and community level. Funding will support key elements of (1) infrastructure and administration, (2) community engagement and partnerships, (3) communication and dissemination, (4) training and education, (5) evaluation, (6) a community-based participatory core research project, and -- for some Prevention Research Centers, 7) special interest projects (SIPS).

How to read these numbers
- Committed through this program
Money committed under this assistance listing (its CFDA program), counted in the year each action happened.
- How it's paid
Most programs pay out one way — a grant, or a direct payment to individuals; the flow bar only appears when a program genuinely mixes types.
- Some recipients aren't itemized
For entitlement programs like Social Security and Medicare, the government reports one aggregate instead of naming tens of millions of people, so the recipient roster isn't part of the public record.
- Awards, counted once
An award count is the number of distinct awards with at least one action that year — each counted once, however many times it was amended.
- The colored bars
Every bar on this page splits by how the money moves:
