About this opportunity

The National Institute on Minority Health and Health Disparities (NIMHD) is forecasting a Notice of Funding Opportunity for planning grants to support preparatory, feasibility, and pilot activities advancing intervention development or solutions-oriented etiologic studies aimed at improving health and reducing health disparities among Native Hawaiian and Pacific Islander (NHPI) populations. Projects must be co-developed with community partners.

Eligible applicants include independent school districts, higher education institutions (public and private), small businesses, county and city/township governments, public or Indian housing authorities, tribal organizations (federally and non-federally recognized), state governments, 501(c)(3) and non-501(c)(3) nonprofits, special district governments, for-profit organizations, eligible federal agencies, U.S. territories or possessions, faith-based or community-based organizations, regional organizations, and non-domestic entities.

Priority areas include formative studies to identify novel or understudied contributors to poor health outcomes and chronic diseases such as cancer and diabetes; planning, adapting, and pilot-testing interventions for prevention, early detection, or control of maternal morbidity, infant health problems, or high-prevalence diseases; and feasibility and acceptability testing of strategies to reduce behavioral risk factors including physical inactivity, poor nutrition, and smoking, and promote sustained behavior change and measurable health outcomes.

Applications will be evaluated for scientific merit by a scientific review group and for program relevance by the National Advisory Council on Minority Health and Health Disparities. The opportunity falls under CFDA 93.307 (Minority Health and Health Disparities Research) and CFDA 93.310 (Trans-NIH Research Support).
