Opportunity Information: Apply for RFA CE 20 003
The Research Grants for Preventing Violence and Violence Related Injury (R01) opportunity (RFA-CE-20-003) is a discretionary grant offered by the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services through the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), specifically the National Center for Injury Prevention and Control (NCIPC). It supports investigator-initiated research that strengthens the evidence base on what actually works to prevent violence and violence-related injury among children and youth. The program is framed around preventing Adverse Childhood Experiences (ACEs), which the CDC treats as a broad set of harmful or traumatic exposures that can occur during childhood and adolescence and that are strongly linked to long-term health and social outcomes.
The core focus is primary prevention evaluation research, meaning studies that test programs, practices, or policies designed to stop violence before it happens, rather than responding after harm occurs. The CDC is looking for rigorous evaluations of interventions aimed either at universal populations (whole communities, schools, or broad groups regardless of risk level) or at selected high-risk populations (groups with one or more known risk factors that increase vulnerability to violence). The violence outcomes of interest include child abuse and neglect, teen dating violence, sexual violence, youth violence, youth or parent suicidal behavior, and children and youths exposure to adult intimate partner violence. A key requirement in the description is that proposed studies must address prevention of child abuse and neglect and at least one additional form of violence affecting children or youth (for example, pairing child maltreatment prevention with teen dating violence prevention, sexual violence prevention, youth violence prevention, or reducing exposure to adult intimate partner violence).
In practical terms, this announcement is meant to move the field beyond promising ideas and toward clearer answers about effectiveness, implementation, and real-world impact. Projects are expected to generate actionable knowledge about prevention approaches, including whether an intervention works, for whom it works, and under what conditions it can be delivered successfully. While the notice does not spell out required study designs in the provided text, the emphasis on evaluation and advancing understanding of what works signals that the CDC is interested in well-structured research capable of producing credible evidence that can inform policy and practice.
Eligibility is broad and includes many public and private entities. Eligible applicants include state, county, and city or township governments; special district governments; independent school districts; public and state-controlled institutions of higher education; private institutions of higher education; federally recognized Native American tribal governments; Native American tribal organizations (other than federally recognized tribal governments); public housing authorities and Indian housing authorities; nonprofit organizations with or without 501(c)(3) status (as long as they are not institutions of higher education in those categories); for-profit organizations other than small businesses; and small businesses. In other words, the competition is open to a wide range of organizations that have the capacity to conduct or partner on high-quality violence prevention research, subject to any clarifications the CDC may include in the full eligibility guidance.
The funding instrument is a grant under the health funding activity category (CFDA 93.136). The award ceiling is $350,000, and the CDC anticipated making three awards. The opportunity was created on November 8, 2019, with an original application closing date of February 4, 2020. Applications were required to be submitted electronically by 5:00 p.m. Eastern Time on the due date.Apply for RFA CE 20 003
