Questions about this grant

When is the application deadline?
December 3, 2027.
Who can apply for this grant?
Governments (federal, state, county, city, special district, and federally or non-federally recognized tribal), public housing authorities, independent school districts, public and private institutions of higher education, nonprofits with or without 501(c)(3) status, for-profit organizations other than small businesses, and small businesses. The eligibility text also names foreign organizations, faith-based and community-based organizations, and various minority-serving institutions.
Can a sole proprietor or single-member LLC apply?
The facts do not say. Sole proprietors are not named in the eligible applicant codes, and for-profit eligibility is listed as 'for profit organizations other than small businesses' plus 'small businesses' without further detail, so a sole proprietor or single-member LLC should confirm eligibility with NIH before applying.
Can a nonprofit apply?
Yes. Both nonprofits with 501(c)(3) status and nonprofits without 501(c)(3) status (other than institutions of higher education) are listed as eligible applicants.

Summary

NIH R01 grants to analyze existing social science, behavioral, administrative, and neuroimaging datasets on drug use, HIV prevention, and health services. Open to governments, nonprofits, universities, tribal entities, and for-profit organizations including small businesses; clinical trials not allowed.

About this grant

The purpose of this Notice of Opportunity Announcement (NOFO) is to invite applications proposing the innovative analysis of existing social science, behavioral, administrative, and neuroimaging data to study the etiology and epidemiology of drug using behaviors (defined as alcohol, tobacco, prescription and other drug) and related disorders, prevention of drug use and HIV, and health service utilization. This FOA encourages the analyses of public use and other extant community-based or clinical datasets to their full potential in order to increase our knowledge of etiology, trajectories of drug using behaviors and their consequences including morbidity and mortality, risk and resilience in the development of psychopathology, strategies to guide the development, testing, implementation, and delivery of high quality, effective and efficient services for the prevention and treatment of drug abuse and HIV.
