THIS GRANT’S FOCUS: Youth Violence Prevention, At-risk Youth, Youth Safety/Well-being, Research
Deadline:
Oct. 2, 2023

“The purpose of this initiative is to support research to develop and test multilevel youth violence prevention interventions that include strategies which address structural discrimination and other social determinants of health. Interventions will focus on youth populations that experience health disparities between the ages of 10 to 24 years. NIH-designated populations with health disparities include Blacks/African Americans, Hispanics/Latinos, American Indians/Alaska Natives, Asians, Native Hawaiians and Other Pacific Islanders, socioeconomically disadvantaged populations, undeserved rural populations, and sexual and gender minorities.

Interventions may involve:
(a) the combination of existing violence prevention and discrimination prevention interventions,
(b) the addition of newly developed discrimination prevention elements into existing violence prevention interventions, or
(c) the development of new, fully integrated violence/discrimination prevention interventions.

Projects are expected to have the following features:
• To use an approach that encompasses multiple domains (e.g., biological, behavioral, socio-cultural, environmental, physical environment, or health system) and multiple levels (e.g., individual, interpersonal, community, societal) to address youth violence.
• To involve collaborations from a variety of relevant organizations or groups, including but not limited to academic institutions, clinicians, health systems, state and local public health agencies, school systems, school-based student or parent associations, community-based organizations, and faith-based organizations.
• To be delivered in any variety of settings, such as schools, hospitals, community organizations, faith-based organizations, or juvenile justice settings.
• To have the potential for sustainability in the intervention setting after the project is over, as well as scalability to be implemented in other settings.”
