The COVID-19 Testing, Reaching, and Contacting Everyone (TRACE) Act authorizes the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) to provide grants to various organizations, including health centers, schools, and hospitals, to conduct COVID-19 testing, contact tracing, and quarantine support. These activities will be conducted through mobile health units and, when necessary, at individuals’ homes.
