About this opportunity
The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) is seeking applications for the Connecting Organizations and People to Empower Diabetes Prevention and Treatment (Connections) program. The purpose of this funding opportunity is to support the evaluation of existing Community-Clinical Linkage (CCL) or social connectedness programs to assess their effectiveness in reducing disparities in diabetes risk factors, incidence, or complications. Applicants must propose rigorous research methodologies, such as natural experiments or quasi-experimental designs, and demonstrate access to relevant data on program participants and health outcomes. Key requirements include identifying a fully enacted CCL or social connectedness program that has been in place for at least 1 year, and targeting specific populations experiencing diabetes-related disparities.
The total funding available for this opportunity is $3.15 million, with up to 3 awards of approximately $350,000 per year for 3 years. The anticipated period of performance is from September 30, 2025 to September 29, 2028. The application deadline is January 6, 2025, and the funding mechanism is a cooperative agreement.
Synopsis
The purpose of this NOFO is to support evaluation of the effectiveness of existing Community-Clinical Linkage or Social Connectedness programs to reduce disparities in diabetes risk factors, incidence, or complications. Additionally, research supported by this NOFO will assess how various mechanisms (e.g., improving specific social or environmental conditions, mental health, or self-efficacy) will impact diabetes outcomes. Specifically, the results of this funded research NOFO will: (a) guide future scaling regarding programs using Community-Clinical Linkage and Social Connectedness; (b) demonstrate mitigation of observed disparities in diabetes risk factors, incidence, and complications through Community-Clinical Linkage and Social Connectedness programs; and (c) inform the understanding of the mechanisms by which Community-Clinical Linkage and Social Connectedness programs achieve successful health outcomes and the features that characterize effective programs.
