The Cobb & Douglas Public Health Community Health Improvement Plan (CHIP) Partnership Grants are designed to empower community partners in implementing initiatives that directly support the 2023-2027 CHIP for Cobb and Douglas Counties in Georgia. This program aligns with the foundation's mission to improve public health outcomes by fostering collaborative, sustainable, and impactful community-led projects. The grants serve as seed money for non-profit initiatives, emphasizing a commitment to long-term health equity and community well-being. The primary target beneficiaries are residents within Cobb and/or Douglas County, with a particular focus on addressing health disparities and promoting health equity. The impact goals are broad, aiming to improve access to health care, encourage healthy behaviors (such as physical activity, healthy sexual behaviors, worksite wellness, chronic disease prevention, and reducing youth tobacco use), promote healthy eating, enhance maternal and infant health, and support mental and behavioral health. These goals are directly tied to the strategic priorities outlined in the 2023-2027 CHIP. The program prioritizes new or expanded efforts that are collaborative, requiring a minimum of one partnership, and include letters of support from partnering agencies. Initiatives must align with a goal area and strategy identified in the CHIP, and importantly, incorporate policy development activities, systems-level improvements, or built environment changes (PSE changes). This focus on PSE changes reflects the foundation's strategic approach and theory of change, recognizing that these systemic interventions lead to practical, sustainable health choices and benefits that extend far beyond the project's completion, by altering laws, shaping physical landscapes, and ensuring lasting community improvements. Expected outcomes include measurable improvements in the identified CHIP goal areas. By funding initiatives that create PSE changes, the program aims to ensure that residents experience lasting positive impacts on their health. While awards will not exceed $25,000 per applicant, and requests up to $5,000 do not require a 1:1 match, the emphasis remains on the sustainability and community-wide reach of the proposed projects. Ultimately, the program seeks to create a healthier environment for all community members, driven by strategic, collaborative efforts that address the root causes of health challenges.

This funding opportunity provides financial support to organizations looking to establish or expand comprehensive healthcare services for elderly individuals in underserved rural areas.

This funding opportunity supports small research teams in developing innovative biomedical technologies that address critical health challenges and improve healthcare accessibility.

This program will support projects to identify and characterize factors associated with gender-affirming hormone therapy (GAHT) that may impact/contribute significantly to the prevention and treatment of HIV and/or co-infections with other sexually transmitted infections (STI)s in transgender individuals. For this funding opportunity GAHT is defined as a medical intervention, including but not limited to estrogen and/or testosterone treatment, that results in acquisition of secondary sex characteristics that align with an individual's gender identity. A growing body of data indicates that GAHT may impact the effectiveness and implementation of biomedical HIV prevention or treatment strategies and/or co-infections with other STIs. A number of factors in transgender populations present research challenges including variability in GAHT regimens, use of auxiliary drugs during GAHT care, access to participants, and access to existing cohorts, datasets, and samples. Consideration of appropriate controls, including cis-gender men and women is also a barrier. Recent studies demonstrating recruitment and retention of participants undergoing GAHT provide the opportunity to build on those studies and provide confidence that these critical studies are feasible.Letter of Intent Due Date(s) 30 days prior to the application due date

This funding opportunity provides financial support to organizations in Western North Carolina that enhance community services for older adults and their caregivers, focusing on health, housing, food security, transportation, mental wellness, and social connectivity.

Established in 2000, the Argyle Community Fund (ACF) is a permanent endowment dedicated to the enhancement and improvement of life in the Argyle area. As part of the Community Foundation of Southern Wisconsin, the ACF annually redistributes a portion of its earnings back to the community through grants. These grants are aimed at supporting a wide range of areas including education, youth, elderly, health care, historic preservation, the arts, and the environment. The advisory board selects recipients once a year, focusing on non-profit organizations, the local school district, and local government agencies that offer charitable programs or projects beneficial to the Argyle community. Grant renewed every year. Grant annual deadline October 1st

This funding opportunity supports research centers focused on improving maternal and child health outcomes through innovative studies and partnerships, particularly addressing disparities and critical health challenges.

The NINDSintends to reissuePAR-23-027 to solicit applications for basic research projects on chemical warfare agents, toxic industrial chemicals, and pesticides that have primary or secondary effects on the nervous system. Chemical threats are toxic compounds that could be used in a terrorist attack or accidentally released from industrial production, storage, or shipping. Projects supported by this NOFO are expected to generate data that elucidate mechanisms of toxicity of these agents, possible new manifestations of toxic exposures, and potential new targets for therapeutic development. This Notice is being provided to allow potential applicants sufficient time to develop meaningful collaborations and responsive projects. The NOFO is expected to be published in Winter 2024 with an expected application due date in Spring 2024. This NOFO will utilize the R01 activity code. Details of the planned NOFO are provided below.

The purpose of this Funding Opportunity Announcement (FOA) is to solicit applications for the Research Units (RUs), one of the two scientific components of the Pancreatic Cancer Detection Consortium (PCDC), to conduct research on early detection of pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) and characterization of its precursor lesions to identify those patients who are at high risk of progression to cancer. The PCDC will continue to address one of the four research priorities identified in the National Cancer Institute's 2014 Scientific Framework for Pancreatic Ductal Adenocarcinoma. The PCDC will support research for the development and testing of new molecular and imaging biomarkers for detecting PDAC early and for identifying those patients at high risk of PDAC (because of genetic factors or presence of precursor lesions) who could be candidates for early intervention. The PCDC-RUs will consist of multi-disciplinary teams and will undertake studies to: identify and test biomarkers measurable in bodily fluids for early detection of PDAC and/or its precursor lesions; determine which pancreatic cysts are likely to progress to cancer; develop molecular- and/or imaging-based approaches for screening populations at high risk of PDAC; use machine learning and computational approaches towards biomarker discovery and/or validation; and conduct biomarker validation studies. The PCDC-RUs will also collect longitudinal biospecimens for building a biorepository. Each PCDC-RU is expected to participate in collaborative activities with other PCDC-RUs and share ideas, biospecimens and data within the Consortium. The other scientific component of the PCDC will be the Management and Data Coordination Unit (MDCU). The PCDC-MDCU will provide support toward study design, protocol development, statistical analysis, coordination, harmonization, data management and stewardship for the trans-PCDC collaborative projects, including biorepository building effort.
