NIAAA, NIDA and NIMH Science Education Partnership Awards

The Department of Health and Human Services Public Health Service operates the NIAAA, NIDA and NIMH Science Education Partnership Awards program (CFDA 93.921) to fund mental health research education grants, though the program has not issued a new award since 2001. The portfolio contains a single Project Grant awarded on August 7, 2001 — a Mental Health Research Education Grant (R25MH063742) to support research education infrastructure, obligating $678 thousand in federal dollars with an ultimate completion date of August 31, 2011. The Department of Health and Human Services was the sole funding agency under this program for the recorded award.

The extreme age of the portfolio and the absence of any awards in the past 25 years signals that this program is either inactive or dormant. No recent grant opportunities have been posted. Given the quarter-century gap between the last award and today, organizations should verify the program's current operational status with the National Institutes of Health or the specific institutes (NIAAA, NIDA, NIMH) before investing business development effort. The R25 mechanism itself remains active across NIH for research education and workforce development, but this particular cross-institute Science Education Partnership Awards vehicle does not appear to be generating new grant solicitations.
