This notice of funding opportunity (NOFO) invites applications for REsearch Across Complementary and Integrative Health Institutions (REACH) virtual resource centers. REACH virtual resource centers will foster institutional partnerships and provide resources to support research activities and research training for faculty who work at accredited complementary and integrative health clinical institutions, such as: Schools of acupuncture, chiropractic, osteopathy, naturopathy, physical therapy, and music and art therapy. The REACH virtual resource centers will provide a variety of services and resources including, but not limited to Administrative Support, Research Support, Grantsmanship, Mentoring and Training, and Team Building to support clinician scientists located at complementary and integrative health clinical institutions to form multi and interdisciplinary research teams and pursue externally funded research aligned with NCCIH Strategic Priorities for symptom management. REACH centers should focus on resources to support investigators pursuing clinical research (e.g., observational, epidemiological, mechanistic clinical research, mixed methods, feasibility studies, etc). It is expected that REACH virtual resource centers will (1) improve the quality and quantity of federal research grant applications submitted by clinician scientist faculty at complementary and integrative health clinical institutions; (2) aid the formation of multi and interdisciplinary research partnerships across partnering complementary and integrative health clinical institutions; (3) help to enhance the research environment at complementary and integrative health clinical institutions; and (4) support a pipeline for clinician scientists trained in complementary and integrative health practices to pursue research careers at clinical institutions.

The purpose of this NOFO is to implement and evaluate PrEPmate, a mobile health (mHealth) intervention to increase HIV pre-exposure prophylaxis (PrEP) adherence and retention in PrEP care among young men who have sex with men (collectively referred to as YMSM) and transgender women of color. PrEPmate features youth-tailored interactive content, reminders (e.g., clinic appointments, prescription refills, and dosing reminders), short message service (SMS) for PrEP clinic patients and clinical providers, and a dashboard that may be integrated into electronic medical records (EMR) or as a stand-alone digital patient monitoring system. The recipient will facilitate implementation of the PrEPmate intervention at three clinical sites located in the southern region of the United States, where there is increased HIV disease burden. The recipient will monitor and evaluate how a mHealth intervention is integrated into the delivery of clinical services to improve PrEP adherence and retention in care. Evaluation will be conducted using a mixed-method approach involving EMR reviews and interviews with agency staff that implement PrEPmate. The project's primary outcomes include increased PrEP medication adherence and retention in PrEP care among patients and increased adaptability and sustainability among clinical providers. A secondary outcome will be the identification of best practices and lessons learned for implementing PrEPmate in clinics serving YMSM and transgender women of color.
