Opportunity Information: Apply for RFA CE 18 001
The Research Grants for Preventing Violence and Violence Related Injury (R01) opportunity (Funding Opportunity Number RFA-CE-18-001) is a discretionary grant program from the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), administered through the CDC National Center for Injury Prevention and Control (NCIPC). Its core purpose is to fund investigator-initiated research that strengthens the evidence base on what actually works to prevent violence before it happens, with a clear emphasis on rigorous evaluation of primary prevention strategies, programs, and policies. Rather than focusing on response after violence occurs, this opportunity is aimed at generating credible, actionable findings about interventions that can reduce the likelihood of violence perpetration in the first place.
The program is specifically focused on closing research and practice gaps related to teen dating violence, intimate partner violence, sexual violence, and youth violence. The CDC is seeking studies that test prevention approaches in real-world conditions and produce stronger causal evidence about effectiveness. Projects supported under this announcement are expected to evaluate primary prevention efforts, which can include strategies delivered broadly to whole populations (universal approaches) as well as approaches targeted to selected high-risk groups. In this context, "selected high-risk" refers to populations that already have one or more risk factors associated with a higher likelihood of perpetrating violence, and the funded work should be designed to assess whether interventions meaningfully reduce perpetration-related outcomes or key precursors.
A key feature of the opportunity is its emphasis on evaluation. The CDC is not simply requesting descriptive research or needs assessments; it is looking for well-designed studies that can credibly determine whether a specific program, policy, or prevention strategy produces measurable reductions in youth violence perpetration and/or teen dating, intimate partner, or sexual violence perpetration. The overall goal is to expand and advance understanding of effective prevention by producing findings that can inform future public health practice, decision-making, and scaling of successful models.
Eligible applicants span a wide range of organizations, reflecting the CDC's intent to support research that can be carried out in diverse settings and communities. Eligible entities include state, county, and city or township governments; special district governments; independent school districts; public and state-controlled institutions of higher education; private institutions of higher education; federally recognized Native American tribal governments; other Native American tribal organizations; public housing authorities and Indian housing authorities; nonprofit organizations with or without 501(c)(3) status (as long as they are not institutions of higher education in those categories); for-profit organizations other than small businesses; and small businesses. This broad eligibility makes it possible for universities, public agencies, nonprofits, tribal entities, and private-sector research partners to apply, either independently or through collaborations.
From an administrative standpoint, the opportunity falls under the Health funding activity category and is associated with CFDA number 93.136. The funding instrument is a grant, and the CDC anticipated making approximately three awards. The award ceiling listed is $350,000, indicating the maximum amount available per award under the announcement. The funding opportunity record shows a creation date of December 21, 2017, and an original application closing date of March 26, 2018, with the standard CDC submission requirement that electronically submitted applications be received no later than 5:00 p.m. Eastern Time on the due date.
In practical terms, this R01 grant opportunity is designed for research teams that are prepared to test and evaluate primary prevention interventions with strong methodology, clear violence-prevention outcomes, and relevance to teen dating violence, intimate partner violence, sexual violence, and youth violence. The CDC's intent is to produce stronger evidence that can guide prevention practice and policy, particularly for approaches aimed at preventing perpetration among universal populations and groups at elevated risk.Apply for RFA CE 18 001
