Eligibility for this funding opportunity is wide-ranging, encompassing educational institutions, government entities, non-profits, small businesses, and other organizations.

| Description: | The National Institute on Alcohol Abuse and Alcoholism (NIAAA), with other NIH Institutes and Centers (ICs), intends to promote a new initiative by publishing a Notice of Funding Opportunity (NOFO) to solicit applications �to support the planning phase of the Model Continuums of Care Initiative to Advance Health Equity and End Health Disparities Among Women and Girls in Racial/Ethnic Minority and Other Underserved Communities (MCCI). �MCCI is a multi-ICO implementation and dissemination science initiative to advance health equity and end health disparities in racial/ethnic minority (REM) and other underserved women and girls. �Specifically, the Model Continuums of Care Initiative will apply the latest implementation and dissemination science approaches to significantly reduce the prevalence and impact of multi-morbidity among REM and other underserved women and girls of reproductive age at risk and living with mental health disorders, substance use disorders, chronic stress, cardiopulmonary diseases, common metabolic disorders (e.g., diabetes), cancer, and HIV/AIDS. �While racial/ethnic minority and other underserved women and girls are the general priority population, special emphasis will be placed on using stakeholder partnerships, provider training, and infrastructure changes to improve access for subgroups of women and girls who currently have the least access to high quality health care. This notice is being provided to allow potential applicants sufficient time to develop meaningful collaborations and responsive projects.� The NOFO is expected to be published in December 2023 with an expected application due date in February 2024. This NOFO will utilize the U34 Clinical Trials Required activity code. Details of the planned FOA are provided below. |
