U.S. NIH Starts New $30 million "Stimulus" Program ... "Community Infrastructure” ...
Colleagues,
The NIH (National Institutes of Health) has established a new program entitled Building Sustainable Community-Linked Infrastructure to Enable Health Science Research, hereafter called the “Community Infrastructure” grants program. This Funding Opportunity Announcement (FOA), is supported by funds provided under the American Recovery & Reinvestment (ARRA .. Stimulus) Act, solicits applications from domestic (United States) institutions/organizations proposing to support the development, expansion, or reconfiguration of infrastructures needed to facilitate collaboration between academic health centers and community-based organizations for health science research. Such collaboration should transform the way in which health science research is conducted in communities, and accelerate the pace, productivity, dissemination, and implementation of health research; applications that build upon extant collaborative infrastructures supported by other Federal agencies are strongly encouraged...
... This initiative has designated up to $30 million in FY2009-2010 to fund 30 or more grants ...Budget requests should not exceed three years and is limited to a maximum of $1 million for the full project period...
... Communities are key consumers of NIH-supported health science research. Communities are broadly defined to include neighborhoods, schools, and workplaces; public health departments, health care providers, and social service agencies; community coalitions; state, county, and local governments; business-community collaborations; campus-community partnerships; public-private partnerships; and other types of organizations and institutions that filter or translate research findings to the American public...
... Applications are invited from domestic (United States) institutions/organizations proposing to develop or expand needed infrastructures that will fundamentally transform collaboration and communication between academic health centers and local communities ... This RFA is not intended to fund research or evaluation projects, clinical trials, or public health campaigns. Rather, the intent is to fund projects to develop infrastructure for productive and sustainable academic-community research partnerships that can be leveraged in the future for efficiently conducting research that includes and is relevant to affected communities, and through which research findings can be disseminated in a manner that maximizes impact on public health.
... The NIH strongly encourages applicants to propose infrastructures that may build upon or be linked to extant infrastructures supported by other Federal agencies (e.g., Administration on Aging [AoA], Agency for Healthcare Research and Quality [AHRQ], Centers for Disease Control and Prevention [CDC], Health Resources and Services Administration [HRSA], Indian Health Service [IHS], Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration [SAMHSA], US Department of Agriculture [USDA], etc.) and thus heighten their potential for long-term sustainability.
... Letters of Intent Receipt Date(s): November 12, 2009, Application Due Date(s): December 11, 2009 ...
