Federal Grant Award Summary The National Institute on Minority Health and Health Disparities (NIMHD) awarded $813,753 to the University of California, Irvine on June 5, 2026, under the Minority Health and Health Disparities Research program (CFDA 93.307) to develop and test ASLEEP (Asian American Sleep Empowerment Program), a community-engaged intervention designed to address disproportionately high rates of poor sleep among Asian Americans. Over the project period extending through November 30, 2030, UCI will deliver a five-week videoconference-based sleep intervention adapted for linguistic and cultural relevance to Chinese-, Korean-, and Vietnamese American communities. The intervention, administered by trained bilingual and bicultural interventionists recruited from Asian communities, will be tested in a randomized controlled trial with 150 community-dwelling adults experiencing poor sleep, with outcomes measured across insomnia severity, sleep disturbance, sleep-related impairment, sleep duration, and depressive and anxiety symptoms. The project incorporates community-engaged research methodology through the establishment of a Community Advisory Board providing input throughout all program development and implementation phases. By addressing documented barriers to cognitive behavioral therapy for insomnia (CBT-I) access among Asian American populations—including lack of culturally and linguistically competent providers and treatment stigma—this initiative aims to produce evidence-based, scalable sleep health interventions tailored to minority health disparity populations, contributing to NIMHD's mission of reducing health disparities through research infrastructure development and community-partnered innovation.
