Opportunity Information: Apply for RFA CE 20 002
The funding opportunity titled "Grants to Support New Investigators in Conducting Research Related to Preventing Interpersonal Violence Impacting Children and Youth" is a CDC National Center for Injury Prevention and Control (NCIPC) mentored career development award intended to help early-career researchers build the skills, publication record, and research portfolio needed to become independent investigators in violence prevention. It uses the Mentored Research Scientist Development Award (K01) model, meaning the award is structured around an intensive, supervised research and training experience rather than a stand-alone research project. A central requirement is that the applicant identifies an experienced mentor (and co-mentor(s) if needed) who will guide both the research plan and the applicant's professional development in a deliberate, structured way.
The program is designed specifically for new investigators who are still early in their careers within the injury and violence prevention field. To be eligible as an individual candidate under this mentored mechanism, the applicant must hold a relevant doctoral-level research or health-professional degree, including PhD, ScD, DO, DrPH, MD, or DVMD, and must have less than five years of experience as a researcher in injury and/or violence prevention. The emphasis on a limited time-in-field signals that the award is meant to expand the pipeline of specialized violence prevention scientists by helping promising researchers transition from mentored training to leading their own research programs.
The proposed research must focus on violence prevention and must do more than describe the problem. Applicants are expected to evaluate the effectiveness of an intervention aimed at preventing one or more forms of violence affecting children and youth ages 0 to 17. The opportunity highlights child abuse and neglect, youth violence, teen dating violence, and sexual violence as examples of eligible focus areas, and it also allows projects that prevent intimate partner violence, sexual violence, or self-directed violence. Regardless of the specific violence type, the work must include measurement of violence outcomes such as victimization or perpetration, or it must assess key risk and protective factors that are closely tied to those outcomes. In other words, the research should generate evidence about what works (or does not work) in prevention and should produce findings that can inform real-world policy and practice.
A key technical requirement is alignment with NCIPC's stated interpersonal violence prevention research gaps, as defined in the NCIPC Research Priorities. Applicants must select and address one of these gaps, linking their research questions and intervention evaluation to priorities identified by CDC as areas where evidence is particularly needed. This requirement functions as the program's roadmap: the award supports investigator development, but it also aims to push the field forward on topics CDC views as high-impact and under-studied.
From an administrative standpoint, this is a discretionary grant funded by the US Department of Health and Human Services, Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), with CFDA number 93.136. The funding opportunity number is RFA-CE-20-002, and it was originally posted on December 6, 2019, with an original application deadline of March 13, 2020, and electronic submissions due by 5:00 p.m. Eastern Time on the due date. The maximum award amount listed is $125,000, and the opportunity anticipated making approximately two awards, reflecting a competitive program with limited slots.
Eligibility for applicant organizations is broad and includes many types of entities that can serve as the institutional home for the candidate and the proposed mentored work. Eligible applicants include state, county, city, township, and special district governments; independent school districts; public and state-controlled institutions of higher education; private institutions of higher education; federally recognized tribal governments and other tribal organizations; public housing authorities/Indian housing authorities; nonprofit organizations with or without 501(c)(3) status (other than institutions of higher education); for-profit organizations (other than small businesses); and small businesses. In practice, this breadth means the award can be housed in universities, research institutes, public agencies, health systems, and other organizational settings, as long as the application meets CDC requirements and the candidate has the necessary mentorship and research environment.
Overall, the opportunity is best understood as a mentored launchpad for early-career scientists committed to preventing interpersonal violence and its impacts on children and youth. It combines a career development structure (close mentorship, supervised training, and a pathway to independence) with a clear expectation of rigorous intervention effectiveness research tied to CDC priority gaps, with the goal of producing both a stronger investigator and stronger evidence for violence prevention.Apply for RFA CE 20 002
