About this opportunity

The National Institutes of Health is soliciting applications to test mental health system interventions through a two-phase R61/R33 clinical trial mechanism, with an application due date of October 15, 2027. This opportunity is restricted to a clinical trial design requirement.

Eligible applicants include higher education institutions (public and private), nonprofits (501(c)(3) and non-501(c)(3)), state and local governments, tribal governments and organizations (federally recognized and not federally recognized), small businesses, for-profit organizations, special district governments, public or Indian housing authorities, independent school districts, and faith-based or community-based organizations. Eligible applicants also include Alaska Native and Native Hawaiian Serving Institutions, HBCUs, Hispanic-serving Institutions, AANAPISIs, TCCUs, regional organizations, eligible federal agencies, non-domestic entities, and U.S. territories or possessions.

The R61 phase supports feasibility and infrastructure development; the R33 phase funds well-powered clinical trials testing system interventions that improve organization, delivery, coordination, and clinical and functional outcomes of mental health services. System interventions span structural, policy, organizational, and interpersonal domains addressing access, equity, engagement and utilization, value, management, quality, and safety. Eligible care settings include health systems and organizations, mental health and community clinics, schools, and child welfare or juvenile justice systems.

The program operates under CFDA 93.242 (Mental Health Research Grants) administered by the National Institute of Mental Health. Applications are evaluated for scientific and technical merit by peer review panels and the National Advisory Mental Health Council, competing on basis of scientific and technical merit, program relevance, and program balance. Award amounts and expected number of awards are not specified in the announcement.

Synopsis

This R61/R33 concept complements NIMHs suite of clinical trial NOFOs by supporting feasibility and infrastructure development (R61) followed by well-powered clinical trials (R33) to test the effectiveness of system interventions and strategies for improving the organization, delivery, coordination, and clinical and functional outcomes of mental health services. System interventions - which may span, for example, structural, policy, organizational, and interpersonal domains - attend to issues about the access, equity, engagement/utilization, value (cost/financing), management, or quality and safety of mental health services, with the goal of improved care processes and clinical and functional outcomes. Accordingly, the focus of system interventions may include a variety of care settings, such as health systems and organizations, mental health and community clinics, schools, and child welfare or juvenile justice systems

Eligibility

Other Eligible Applicants include the following: 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.
