Upcoming Funding Opportunity Announcement: Community Interventions to Address the Consequences of the COVID-19 Pandemic for Health Disparity and Vulnerable Populations (R01 - Clinical Trial Optional)

NIMHD is partnering with other Institutes and Centers at the National Institute of Health to support an upcoming funding opportunity announcement (FOA): NOT-MD-20-023 Community Interventions to Address the Consequences of the COVID-19 Pandemic for Health Disparity and Vulnerable Populations (R01 - Clinical Trial Optional).

The FOA solicits research to evaluate community interventions testing:

1. The impacts of mitigation strategies to prevent COVID-19 transmission in NIH-designated health disparity populations and other vulnerable groups
2. Already implemented, new, or adapted interventions to address the adverse psychosocial, sociocultural, behavioral and socioeconomic consequences of COVID-19 on the health of these groups

Researchers are encouraged to partner with community organizations, health service providers, public health agencies, policymakers, and other stakeholders to prepare and submit applications.

Expected application due date: July 2020
