Tribal-State Collaboration: Develop and support meaningful state and tribal collaborations6. Data Management: Enhance capacity for data collection, analysis, visualization, and procurement of case management systems

The purpose of this funding opportunity is to establish, by cooperative agreement, a National Child Welfare Center for Court Innovation and Advancement (CCIA). The CCIA will serve as the technical assistance (TA) provider to State and Tribal Court Improvement Programs (CIPs and TCIPs respectively). The CCIA will also provide TA to continuously improve and promote high quality legal representation for parents, children, and the child welfare agency, including around prevention and at all stages of child welfare proceedings as well as improve the quality of dependency hearings and reviews.The CCIA will be the Childrens Bureaus (CB) principal TA provider to CIPs, TCIPs and the broader child welfare legal and judicial community. The CCIA will build the capacity of TA recipients to meet current and future standards and requirements described in statute and federal regulations (including those specified under titles IV-B and IV-E of the Social Security Act), improve organizational and system performance, and improve outcomes for children, youth, and families. In addition, the CCIA will be responsible for increasing the knowledge, skills, capacity, and resources of child welfare legal professionals.

This funding opportunity supports research on the ethical, legal, and social implications of human genetics and genomics, particularly focusing on diverse perspectives and community engagement.

This funding opportunity provides financial support for research aimed at improving resources and practices for caregivers and professionals who assist children with delayed language development, particularly focusing on underrepresented communities.

This funding opportunity supports research projects aimed at reducing disparities in maternal health outcomes among vulnerable populations in the U.S. by investigating healthcare system and clinician factors.

This funding opportunity supports innovative research aimed at improving the health and well-being of individuals with disabilities, particularly those from racial and ethnic minority groups and economically disadvantaged backgrounds, by addressing the complex factors that contribute to health disparities.

This funding opportunity supports innovative research aimed at developing new strategies for curing HIV at the start of antiretroviral therapy, targeting researchers and institutions focused on reducing the HIV reservoir and improving immune responses.

This funding opportunity supports researchers exploring innovative strategies to achieve long-lasting HIV remission at the start of antiretroviral therapy, focusing on basic and preclinical studies rather than clinical trials.

This grant provides funding for innovative researchers from various scientific fields to develop groundbreaking technologies for recording and manipulating neural activity in the nervous system.

The Maternity Group Home (MGH) program provides safe, stable, and appropriate shelter for pregnant and/or parenting youth and young adults ages 16 to under 22 who have runaway or are experiencing homelessness, and their dependent child(ren), for 18 months and, under extenuating circumstances, up to 21 months. Service providers must accommodate for the needs and safety of the dependent children to include facility safety standards for infants and children on the premises. MGH services include, but are not limited to, parenting skills, child development, family budgeting, and health and nutrition education, in addition to the required services provided under the Transitional Living Program to help MGH youth and young adults realize improvements in four core outcome areas. The MGH combination of shelter and services is designed to promote long-term, economic independence to ensure the well-being of the youth and their child(ren).

This funding opportunity supports postdoctoral researchers in biomedical and behavioral fields, providing mentorship and resources to help them develop into independent scientists.

This funding opportunity supports predoctoral students in dual-degree programs at institutions without NIH-funded training programs, helping them pursue research and clinical training to become future physician-scientists.

The Administration for Children and Families (ACF) anticipates soliciting applications for the Temporary Assistance for Needy Families (TANF) Data Collaborative Equity Analysis Awards. Awards are intended to support state, territory, or county TANF agencies in conducting equity-focused analyses of their TANF and other human services data. Equity-focused analyses may examine the fair, just, and impartial treatment of individuals under the management and practices of the TANF program. For example, analyses may assess disparities or disproportionalities across different social groups with respect to benefit levels, referral to specific programs, or sanctioning rates. During the 30-month project period, award recipients will participate in intensive training and technical assistance provided by an ACF-funded contractor as part of the TANF Data Collaborative 2.0 (see description below). The technical assistance will build the capacity of agencies to execute a multi-year project that will identify relevant equity-focused research questions, and using available data, build data models and visualizations to inform program improvement, particularly as it relates to social equity in TANF, which is defined as the fair and equitable distribution of public services and implementation of public policy.TANF programs aim to address the employment and self-sufficiency needs of TANF recipients and other individuals with low incomes. The existence of federally reported TANF administrative data and TANF agency case management data creates unique opportunities to evaluate equity in multiple stages of the program process, allowing TANF agencies to build evidence on the potential inequities that may exist in their programs for participants. The TANF Data Collaborative Equity Analysis Awards are intended to support participating TANF agencies to:Build data analytic capacity among TANF agency staff through intensive training and technical assistance;Promote social equity analysis using TANF data to support program improvement and inform policy making;Encourage innovative approaches to leveraging one or more existing TANF data sources; andDemonstrate the potential for improved TANF data quality, use, and sharing to benefit agency programming and individual and family outcomes.OPRE funded the TANF Data Collaborative (TDC) as part of the TANF Data Innovation contract between 2017 and 2022, which provided training and technical assistance to directly support the learning of pilot sites while generating lessons and materials for others interested in understanding and working with TANF data. (More information on TDC is available at https://www.acf.hhs.gov/opre/report/increasing-data-analytics-capacity-state-tanf-agencies-tanf-data-collaborative-approach.) OPRE anticipates awarding a contract for the TANF Data Collaborative 2.0 in FY 2023, to deliver training and technical assistance to entities awarded TANF Data Collaborative Equity Analysis Awards.Award funding depends on the availability and continued interest of the government.
