The Department of Health and Human Services, National Institutes of Health, and National Institute of General Medical Sciences are reissuing PAR-25-441, the Native American Research Centers for Health (NARCH) Planning Grants (R34 - Clinical Trial Not Allowed). This grant supports federally-recognized American Indian/Alaska Native Tribes and Tribal entities in planning and preparing competitive NARCH applications, aiming to expand the program's reach. The program focuses on developing research capacity and training future scientists. Eligible organizations can submit one application per due date, with a maximum budget of $225,000 in annual direct costs for a two-year project. Applicants must not currently hold a NARCH S06 award or an active NARCH Planning Grant. The application requires a plan to formulate overall goals for a future NARCH application, assess administrative capacity, determine allowable components, and identify collaborators. Subcontracts to non-Tribal partner organizations are limited to 25% of the direct cost budget. The application process involves specific instructions and registrations through platforms like SAM, UEI, eRA Commons, and Grants.gov. Applications will be reviewed based on scientific and technical merit, considering the importance, rigor, feasibility, and expertise of the proposed planning activities.
