This program element does not have a proposal due date. Step-1 proposals may be submitted at any time, pending certain eligibility timing issues related to resubmissions and duplicate proposal avoidance, see the program element text and appropriate overview appendix (e.g., B.1 or C.1). The date shown of 3/29/2024 is the last day that proposals may be submitted subject to the ROSES-23 rules and the current Guidebook for Proposers. The ROSES-24 version of this program element is planned to overlap with this ROSES-23 version by a few weeks, allowing continuous submission of proposals across ROSES years. Step-1 proposals will receive an encouraged or discouraged review at which time they may prepare and submit a Step-2 proposal in accordance with the schedule outlined in the decision communication. Proposers must retrieve the instructions document (zip file) associated with the application package for this opportunity as there is at least one required form that must be attached to the submitted proposal package. The National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) Science Mission Directorate (SMD) released its annual omnibus Research Announcement (NRA), Research Opportunities in Space and Earth Sciences (ROSES) 2023 (OMB Approval Number 2700-0092, CFDA Number 43.001) on February 14, 2023. In this case "omnibus" means that this NRA has many individual program elements, each with its own due dates and topics. All together these cover the wide range of basic and applied supporting research and technology in space and Earth sciences supported by SMD. Awards will be made as grants, cooperative agreements, contracts, and inter- or intra-agency transfers, depending on the nature of the work proposed, the proposing organization, and/or program requirements. However, most extramural research awards deriving from ROSES will be grants, and many program elements of ROSES specifically exclude contracts, because contracts would not be appropriate for the nature of the work solicited. The typical period of performance for an award is three years, but some programs may allow up to five years and others specify shorter periods. In most cases, organizations of every type, Government and private, for profit and not-for-profit, domestic and foreign (with some caveats), may submit proposals without restriction on teaming arrangements. Tables listing the program elements and due dates (Tables 2 and 3), a table that provides a very top level summary of proposal contents (Table 1), and the full text of the ROSES-2023 "Summary of Solicitation", may all be found NSPIRES at http://solicitation.nasaprs.com/ROSES2023. This synopsis is associated with one of the individual program elements within ROSES, but this is a generic summary that is posted for all ROSES elements.

This is a Request for Information (RFI) only. This RFI is not accepting applications for financial assistance. The purpose of this RFI is solely to solicit input for ARPA-E consideration to inform the possible formulation of future programs. The purpose of this Request for Information (RFI) is to solicit input for a potential ARPA-E program focused on the development of highly insulating R-10-rated glass for windows and R-50-rated walls for residential and commercial building retrofit and new construction.1 This RFI aims to identify potential participants and gather insights to inform the development of a potential funding opportunity focused on these transformative technologies. Heating and cooling of residential and commercial buildings in the United States accounted for about 12% of total national energy consumption (amounting to 12 quadrillion British thermal units) in 2022.2 Approximately 45% of this heating, ventilation, and air conditioning (HVAC) energy was used to compensate for heat transfer through the building envelope (e.g., windows, walls, doors, attic, and air leaks).2 Reducing the energy a building uses has multiple benefits beyond lower utility costs and carbon dioxide emissions. Smaller, less expensive HVAC equipment and ducting systems would increase useful interior space and reduce demands on the electrical grid.

This proposed agreement proposes three key aspects to support timely implementation of the WS EIS and AM Plan: 1. Development of simulation tools that are then transferred to managing agencies for ongoing implementation, 2. Demonstrated application of simulations to inform management direction under uncertainty 3. Incorporation of the best available data as it comes available to update the simulation modeling, leading to a more informed management decision. This will require a combination of salmon life cycle modeling, refinement and application of downstream passage modeling using the Fish Benefit Workbook developed by the Corps, and ongoing monitoring and analysis to inform these models. The proposed work includes completing analysis of effects of the preferred alternative on Upper Willamette River Spring Chinook and winter steelhead, supporting completion of the final EIS. Work proposed also includes description of an adaptive management framework wherein objectives, performance, uncertainty, risk, and value of information are explicitly quantified. This allows resource managers to 1) update testable hypotheses efficiently, 2) make use of limited data or disparate data types, 3) reduce analytical timelines, and 4) when presented with logistic or funding obstacles, can identify which monitoring data should be prioritized and collected thus remaining efficient with taxpayer dollars. The proposed work further includes refining the Corps Fish Benefit Workbook (FBW), recently converted to R, to address structural limitations identified in previous scientific reviews, and completion of FBW models delivered for future application by USACE and other parties. Similarly, proposed work includes development and delivery of lifecycle models for future application by USACE and other parties, with capabilities similar to those applied in the 2022 WS EIS. Analysis will occur once Biological Opinions from NMFS and USFWS are received and associated recommended changes (expected in summer 2024). Analysis during summer 2024 will be supported by contracts which expire in September 2024, however analysis will continue into fall 2024 and potentially winter 2025. Once final and a record of decision is signed, implementation and adaptive management begins during the remainder of 2025 and future years.

The purpose of the Coalitions Training Cooperative Agreement is to leverage existing resources and conference support to enable SAMHSA to provide training and technical assistance to state and community prevention leaders, including members of anti-drug community coalitions from around the country who are committed to addressing the evolving needs of the behavioral health field. The award will also help enhance and build the prevention workforce. The program’s aim is to provide evidence-based information on the state of substance use and misuse in the nation to substance use prevention audiences. According to the National Survey on Drug Use and Health (NSDUH) data from 2022, 48.7 million people aged 12 or older (or 17.3% of this population) had a substance use disorder (SUD) in the past year, including 29.5 million who had an alcohol use disorder and 27.2 million who had a drug use disorder. In 2022 the estimates of past year SUD among people aged 12 or older was highest among young adults aged 18 to 25 (27.8% or 9.7 million people) compared to the estimates for all other age groups, and among American Indian or Alaska Native People (24%) compared to the estimates for people in all other racial/ethnic groups.

This notice announces the opportunity for health centers funded by HRSA under section 330 of the Public Health Service Act to apply for funding under Fiscal Year (FY) 2025 Quality Improvement Fund Transitions in Care for Justice-Involved Populations (QIF-TJI). The purpose of this funding opportunity is to strengthen transitions in care for individuals who will soon be released from incarceration, increasing their access to community-based, high-quality primary care services. Through this one-time investment, health centers will build upon existing evidence-based models to pilot innovative approaches that connect or reconnect justice-involved individuals reentering the community (JI-R) to in-scope health center services that address critical health and health-related social needs. FY 2025 QIF-TJI award recipients will pilot models of care that increase access to and engagement with health center services for JI-R individuals as they prepare for release from incarceration and return to living in the community. Your proposed QIF-TJI activities must align with the Health Center Program Scope of Project Policy Manual (Scope Policy Manual). A list of in-scope services for JI-R individuals is included in Appendix C. Carceral authorities are obligated to provide medical care to incarcerated individuals within the carceral setting. Health centers may not use QIF-TJI funding to replace the obligations of carceral authorities to provide medical care or for any activities that are not specifically focused on engaging JI-R individuals with health center community-based primary health care to support transitions in care. In addition, health centers cannot use QIF-TJI funding to provide medical care to individuals who are more than 90 days from scheduled or expected release from incarceration or activities that are not aligned with associated guidance in this NOFO and its appendices.
