The purpose of this program is to increase the amount of high quality, impartial, policy-relevant research to assist providers and decision/policy-makers at the federal, state and local levels to better understand problems faced by rural communities and provide information that will be applied in ways that improve health care in rural areas. This notice announces the opportunity to apply for funding under the Rural Health Research Center (RHRC) Program. The purpose of this cooperative agreement is to support high-quality, impartial, policy-relevant research to assist health care providers and decision/policy-makers at the federal, state and local levels in better understanding the challenges faced by rural communities and in designing policies to improve health care access and population health. RHRC recipients will conduct policy-oriented health services research, update trend analyses and existing research, and conduct necessary literature reviews on rural issues and synthesize the issues into publically available policy briefs designed to be easily understood by a non-technical audience. In addition to primary and secondary research, the applicant must be willing and able to conduct literature syntheses and update existing research to produce timely and relevant information. The ratio of original research to other needed projects will be reviewed by the Federal Office of Rural Health Policy (FORHP) and the final ratio will be negotiated between the recipients and the Federal Office of Rural Health Policy. The four-year RHRC Program awards are designed to support research centers with specific rural health research areas of concentration. The topic(s) of concentration must be policy-relevant and of enduring interest and importance to rural providers, rural stakeholders, policy makers and/or rural communities. A goal of the RHRC Program is to produce new information, through the research activities supported by this cooperative agreement, which can be applied in ways that directly inform improvements in access to health care and population health for rural America. This cooperative agreement program will support health services research projects and will exclude clinical/biomedical research and the expenditure of funds for delivery of health care services. The Agency for Healthcare Research and Quality (AHRQ) defines the term “health services research” as research that examines “how people get access to health care, how much care costs, and what happens to patients as a result of this care.” The main goals of health services research are to “identify the most effective ways to organize, manage, finance, and deliver high quality care; reduce medical errors, and improve patient safety.”1

Connection to the clinical condition must be clearly established and the outcomes of the grant must have practical clinical impact.

Many of these sites contain campgrounds, picnic areas, beaches, visitor centers, trail systems and various other recreation components. In addition, USACE is responsible for the conservation and stewardship of over 12 million acres of lands and waters.This award will be made in compliance 32 CFR Chapter I Subchapter C, DoD Grant and Agreement Regulations (DoDGARS), Title 2 of the CFR, Grants and Agreements, under the authority of 33 USC 2339 (a) codified by Section 213(a) of the Water Resources Development Act of 2000 which states: Conservation and Recreation Management To further training and educational opportunities at water resources development projects under the jurisdiction of the Secretary (of the Army), the Secretary may enter into cooperative agreements with non-Federal public and non-profit entities for services relating to natural resources conservation or recreation management. Award Information. Type of Award Instrument. USACE intends to award a single Master Cooperative Agreement, (Master Agreement), to one Recipient. The Master Agreement is anticipated to include one (1) 12-month base year and four (4) subsequent optional follow-on years, each optional follow-on year is to be exercised at the discretion of the Government. Individual WOAs will be executed on an as needed basis and will include a base period (up to or less than a 12-month performance period) and may include optional follow-on periods (up to or less than a 12-month performance period), each optional follow-on period to be exercised at the discretion of the Government.Period of Performance. The term of the Master Agreement will be for a 12-month base year and four subsequent follow-on optional years according to the effective date of the Master Agreement, anticipated to be 1 February 2025. WOAs will have project and budget periods (to include a base period and may include optional follow-on periods) that are specific to the requirement and available funding. Estimated Funding. Minimum funding presently available for the Master Agreement base year (via an executed and funded WOA) is $3,000. If subsequent follow-on optional years are exercised, at the discretion of the Government, each follow-on year will have a minimum guaranteed award amount of $3,000 (at some point during that years performance period). The minimum award amount means that the Governments liability for execution of a WOA is limited to $3,000 during each Master Agreement follow-on year. In the event that WOAs executed and funded during the Master Agreements follow-on year do not total $3,000, the difference between the total of the funded WOAs for work during the applicable follow-on year and $3,000 will be awarded and funded on a minimum guarantee WOA by which the Recipient may submit a request for payment.

Multistate Conservation Grants are authorized under 16 U.S.C. 669h-2 and 16 U.S.C. 777m, providing funding for wildlife restoration and sport fish restoration projects and recruitment, retention and reactivation (R3) projects that address regional or national priority needs of State fish and wildlife agencies and their partners that are beyond the scale, scope, and capabilities of a single State. The priority needs, also known as Strategic Priorities, are identified annually by the Association of Fish and Wildlife Agencies (AFWA) with input from State fish and wildlife agencies and their partners. Recipients awarded Traditional Multistate Conservation Grants (T-MSCG) may use the funds for wildlife or sport fish projects involving research, restoration, conservation and management of wild birds, wild mammals, sport fish, and their habitats. These funds may also be used for projects providing for public use and benefit from these resources, including hunter safety and education, aquatic education, angler R3 projects and other purposes consistent with the enabling legislation. Recipients awarded under R3 Multistate Conservation Grants (R3-MSCG) can only use the funds for hunter recruitment and recreational shooter recruitment projects that promote a national hunting and shooting sport recruitment program, including related communication and outreach activities.

The main objective of this NOFO is to foster development and testing of technologies adaptable to aging-related changes in older adults (aged 65 years or older) with T1D to improve diabetes management and quality of life. Older adults may have increased vulnerability to hypoglycemia, cognitive impairment and/or multiple co-morbidities which may affect the risks and benefits of these technologies in this population. Projects will be funded to a) develop and test new technologies and b) to adapt and test existing technologies. It is expected that aging-adaptive diabetes technologies that address barriers for use among older adults with T1D will improve usability, adoption and adherence decreasing the risk of hypoglycemia (and hypoglycemia unawareness) while enhancing glycemic control, facilitating better diabetes management, and improving quality of life for these individuals and their caregivers.
