The Minnesota School-Based Health Centers (SBHC) Grant is administered by the Minnesota Department of Health (MDH) to support both the development of new school-based clinics and the sustainability or expansion of existing ones. SBHCs are healthcare facilities located in or near schools that provide comprehensive, high-quality, accessible healthcare to K–12 students, regardless of their ability to pay, insurance status, or immigration status. These centers offer preventive and behavioral health services and may also include care for chronic conditions, acute illness, oral and vision care, nutritional and reproductive health, substance abuse counseling, referrals, and services that address social determinants of health. This grant opportunity is funded through Minnesota state funding and supports two categories: "Category 1: New and Emerging Clinics" and "Category 2: Operating Clinics." The New and Emerging Grant offers a one-time, three-year funding package totaling $187,500 to help organizations plan, establish, and begin operating a new SBHC site. The Operating Clinic Grant provides tiered funding of $50,000 to $100,000 per year for three years based on combined operating hours to enhance existing clinics. This funding is not renewable within the same application cycle but may be extended for an additional year based on performance and funding availability. Eligible applicants include public schools, school districts, charter schools, Tribal schools, alternative learning centers, community-based organizations, tribal clinics, local health departments, and medical or mental health organizations intending to sponsor an SBHC. A sponsoring organization must meet the legal definition outlined in MN Statute 145.903 Sub. 1. Collaboration with a school district and participation with MDH and the Minnesota School-Based Health Alliance (MNSBHA) are required throughout the grant period. Applications are due by July 10, 2025, through the Child and Family Health Online Grant Portal. Interested applicants can attend an informational session on June 3, 2025, at 4 p.m. via Microsoft Teams.

The Bureau of Justice Assistance (BJA) Project Safe Neighborhoods (PSN) Grant Program, offered through the United States Attorney for the Western District of Virginia in partnership with the Virginia Department of Criminal Justice Services (DCJS), aims to provide federal funds for comprehensive, collaborative, and community-based approaches to reducing violent crime. The program's mission aligns with supporting organizations within the Western District of Virginia in their efforts to mitigate gun and gang violence. This initiative seeks to foster public safety by supporting a broad range of activities, including deterrence efforts, evidence-based programs, proven enforcement strategies, and the prosecution of significant firearm, controlled substance, and violent crime offenses. The grant targets local and state law enforcement agencies, local and state governmental entities, educational institutions, and 501(c)(3) non-profit organizations located in or serving the cities of Roanoke, Lynchburg, Danville, and Charlottesville (including Albemarle County). Multi-jurisdictional partnerships are also eligible. The primary impact goal is to reduce violent crime through a full range of appropriate strategies. Expected outcomes include a decrease in gun and gang violence, stronger community trust in law enforcement, and a more effective justice system in addressing violent offenses. The program prioritizes four key PSN design features. "Community Engagement" emphasizes meaningful communication and relationship-building between communities, law enforcement, prosecutors, and other stakeholders to build trust and shared public safety values. "Prevention and Intervention Effective" focuses on problem-solving approaches that address violent crime by leveraging resources like education, social services, job training, and reentry programs to provide individuals with skills and alternatives. "Focused and Strategic Enforcement" directs efforts towards identifying and addressing problem places and prolific offenders driving violent crime, often involving gangs and violent street groups. This includes utilizing technology and analytics, developing enforcement strategies, and deterring violence through public awareness. Finally, "Accountability" highlights the importance of analyzing and assessing the impact of PSN strategies on violent crime and community health, often in partnership with research entities, to ensure the program's success and credibility. The funding available is approximately $302,000, with grants awarded for a twelve-month period, potentially extending to 24 months based on need.

This R21 funding opportunity encourages projects that test, in animals and/or humans, whether modifying electrophysiological patterns can improve cognitive, affective, or social processing. This R21 has a companion R01 (TEMP-10327). The proximal goal of this FOA (and its companion R01) is to encourage investigators to test whether modifying specific patterns of coordinated neural activity in vivo can improve cognitive, social, or affective processes. These studies should be based on a rational understanding of the role of specific neural activity rhythms in, for example, the routing of information among brain regions or in improving the ability of afferent information to affect local processing via coherence of underlying oscillatory activity.
