HEAL Initiative: JCOIN Phase II Community Engaged Research Resource Center (U24 Clinical Trial Optional)
Active
National Institutes of Health
The National Institutes of Health (NIH) has posted a grant opportunity titled "HEAL Initiative: JCOIN Phase II Community Engaged Research Resource Center (U24 Clinical Trial Optional)". This grant opportunity falls under the category of Health and is a Cooperative Agreement. The grant does not require cost sharing or matching. The purpose of this grant is to address the overdose crisis in the context of the criminal justice system, specifically focusing on justice-involved populations and criminal-legal systems. The grant aims to increase the delivery of and access to Medications for Opioid Use Disorder (MOUD) to individuals in the US justice system. It is important to note that individuals in the US justice system are disproportionately likely to have Substance Use Disorder/Opioid Use Disorder (SUD/OUD), and they are at high risk for opioid withdrawal upon incarceration and overdose post-release if they have not received MOUD while detained. The grant seeks to fund a portfolio of research projects that will conduct hybrid effectiveness-implementation trials to address key barriers to the delivery of evidence-based OUD treatments to justice-involved populations. The ultimate goal is to translate research into practice and improve the availability and accessibility of MOUD for this vulnerable population. The grant opportunity is open to various eligible applicants, including Alaska Native and Native Hawaiian Serving Institutions, Asian American Native American Pacific Islander Serving Institutions (AANAPISISs), Eligible Agencies of the Federal Government, Faith-based or Community-based Organizations, Hispanic-serving Institutions, Historically Black Colleges and Universities (HBCUs), Indian/Native American Tribal Governments (Other than Federally Recognized), Non-domestic (non-U.S.) Entities (Foreign Organizations), Regional Organizations, Tribally Controlled Colleges and Universities (TCCUs), U.S. Territory or Possession. However, non-domestic (non-U.S.) entities (foreign organizations) and non-domestic components of U.S. organizations are not eligible to apply. The closing date for this grant opportunity is January 22, 2025. The maximum award ceiling is $750,000.
