This announcement is modified. Under section Step 4 Criteria: Bonus Points Project located in a geographically underserved community, the state of Idaho was listed in error as not having an active CED job creation project. After further review, it is acknowledged that the state of Idaho has an active CED project. Therefore, the state of Idaho is removed from the bonus points list. Applicants who submit applications from those states will not be considered for the additional points based on State or territory without an active CED grant. However, they can be considered for bonus points under being persistent poverty county or Native American community. The Administration for Children and Families (ACF), Office of Community Services (OCS) will solicit applications to award approximately $1.5 million in Community Economic Development (CED) discretionary funds to Community Development Corporations (CDCs) to stimulate new CED project development through administrative capacity building.OCS aims to align this funding opportunity with the following priority areas: (1) Executive Order 14008: Tackling the Climate Crisis at Home and Abroad and the Justice40 Initiative, which underscore funding support for energy communities, (2) increased equity in geographic distribution of CED funds, in accordance with the CED statute, and (3) breaking down service silos and leveraging existing partnerships across OCS programs to reduce poverty through a wraparound services model for communities with low incomes. The objective of the CED Planning Grants is to stimulate new projects in underserved and under resourced communities. OCS intends to center equity in this funding opportunity, focusing these resources in persistent high-poverty areas with struggling economies that have been unable to put forth a viable CED project in the past. The goal of this funding opportunity is to provide CDCs with financial assistance for administrative capacity building. The awards will be a crucial step in connecting CDCs with CED resources for social and revenue reinvestment in local communities to help spark economic growth. OCS is encouraging applications from CDCs that target urban and rural areas.

This Funding Opportunity Announcement is focused on automating curation of biomedical digital assets in support of Goal 1. Objective 1.1 of the NLM Strategic Plan 2017-2027: An important research direction will develop strategies for curation at scale." The ability to re-use, integrate or add to existing data sets will open new avenues of opportunity and can speed discoveries that will improve health. But this promise will go unrealized without advances in automated and autonomous curation. Objective 1.2: Automatic, autonomous curation strategies will allow for operational efficiency as well as accelerate the speed of discovery Digital curation involves characterizing, annotating, managing, and preserving digital assets such as research data sets, computational and other types of models, reusable visualization tools, and other digital assets. Proficient curation of digital assets maximizes their reuse potential, mitigates risk of obsolescence, reduces the likelihood that their long-term value will diminish or be lost, and helps assure reproducibility of research. The evolving digital ecosystem supports data-driven biomedical discovery by providing access to large quantities of biomedical and health-related data, to computational models and to open source software and code. The scope, scale and heterogeneity of digital data alone are vast, ranging from genome sequences to biomedical images, from observational health findings to environmental measurements, from family histories to sensor readings from personal trackers. As the amount and complexity of digital assets continue to grow, manual curation will not scale to meet future needs. At the same time, as researchers make research data sets, models and other tools available for new uses or re-analysis, it is important to minimize duplication and simplify the process of finding, managing, visualizing and mining all types of digital assets. To help researchers who want to find, interoperate and use these data sources to make new discoveries, and to share their findings so others can build upon them, the purpose of this funding announcement is to encourage applications for new approaches that (1) increase the speed and assure quality and security of storage techniques, retrieval strategies, annotation methods, data standards, visualization tools and other advanced data management approaches and (2) improve our ability to make biomedical data and other digital research assets findable, accessible, interoperable and reusable (FAIR).

Research shows that HIV care must increasingly address the management of individuals with multiple coexisting diseases (p.357) such as infectious and chronic diseases, mental health and behavioral disorders, food insecurity, substance use, etc. Since individual diseases do not exist in a vacuum, neither does the management, or burden of disease on community well-being. In response, syndemic theory and approaches are used to (1) increase the focus on co-occurring and interacting disease and social conditions that exacerbate health inequities, and (2) advance the evidence base for effective approaches to assess, monitor, and intervene with respect to these co-occurring and interacting factors for optimal outcomes in HIV treatment and care. The purpose of this project is to design, implement, and evaluate innovative comprehensive interventions part of an integrated treatment plan , using a syndemic approach to address co-occurring and interacting conditions of HIV, substance use disorder, intimate partner violence (IPV), and other social determinants of health that impact health outcomes of racial and ethnic minorities with HIV.

NOTICE: Amended May 14, 2024. The proposal due date has been delayed to June 10, 2024. Also, a FAQ has been posted under other documents on the right of this NSPIRES page. Proposers must retrieve the instructions document (zip file) associated with the application package for this opportunity as there is at least one required form that must be attached to the submitted proposal package. The National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) Science Mission Directorate (SMD) released its annual omnibus Research Announcement (NRA), Research Opportunities in Space and Earth Sciences (ROSES) 2024 (OMB Approval Number 2700-0092, CFDA Number 43.001) on February 14, 2024. In this case "omnibus" means that this NRA has many individual program elements, each with its own due dates and topics. All together these cover the wide range of basic and applied supporting research and technology in space and Earth sciences supported by SMD. Awards will be made as grants, cooperative agreements, contracts, and inter- or intra-agency transfers, depending on the nature of the work proposed, the proposing organization, and/or program requirements. However, most extramural research awards deriving from ROSES will be grants, and many program elements of ROSES specifically exclude contracts, because contracts would not be appropriate for the nature of the work solicited. The typical period of performance for an award is three years, but some programs may allow up to five years and others specify shorter periods. In most cases, organizations of every type, Government and private, for profit and not-for-profit, domestic and foreign (with some caveats), may submit proposals without restriction on teaming arrangements. Tables listing the program elements and due dates (Tables 2 and 3), a table that provides a very top level summary of proposal contents (Table 1), and the full text of the ROSES-2024 "Summary of Solicitation", may all be found NSPIRES at http://solicitation.nasaprs.com/ROSES2024. This synopsis is associated with one of the individual program elements within ROSES, but this is a generic summary that is posted for all ROSES elements. For specific information on this particular program element download and read the PDF of the text of this program element by going to Tables 2 or 3 of this NRA at http://solicitation.nasaprs.com/ROSES2024table2 and http://solicitation.nasaprs.com/ROSES2024table3, respectively, click the title of the program element of interest, a hypertext link will take you to a page for that particular program element. On that page, on the right side under "Announcement Documents" the link on the bottom will be to the PDF of the text of the call for proposals. For example, if one were interested in The Lunar Data Analysis Program (NNH24ZDA001N-LDAP) one would follow the link to the NSPIRES page for that program element and then to read the text of the call one would click on C.8 Lunar Data Analysis Program (.pdf) to download the text of the call. If one wanted to set it into the context of the goals, objectives and know the default rules for all elements within Appendix C, the planetary science division, one might download and read C.1 Planetary Science Research Program Overview (.pdf) from that same page. While the letters and numbers are different for each element within ROSES (A.12, B.7, etc.) the basic configuration is always the same, e.g., the letter indicates the Science Division (A is Earth Science, B is Heliophysics etc.) and whatever the letter, #1 is always the division overview. Frequently asked questions for ROSES are posted at http://science.nasa.gov/researchers/sara/faqs. Questions concerning general ROSES-2024 policies and procedures may be directed to Max Bernstein, Lead for Research, Science Mission Directorate, at sara@nasa.gov, but technical questions concerning specific program elements should be directed to the point(s) of contact for that particular element, who may be found either at the end of the individual program element in the summary table of key information or on the web list of topics and points of contact at: http://science.nasa.gov/researchers/sara/program-officers-list. Not all program elements are known at the time of the release of ROSES. To be informed of new program elements or amendments to this NRA, proposers may subscribe to: (1) The SMD mailing lists (by logging in at http://nspires.nasaprs.com and checking the appropriate boxes under "Account Management" and "Email Subscriptions"), (2) The ROSES-2024 blog feed for amendments, clarifications, and corrections to at https://science.nasa.gov/researchers/solicitations/roses-2024/, and (3) The ROSES-2024 due date Google calendars (one for each science division).

The U.S. National Science Foundation seeks to build research capacity and infrastructure to address complex and compounding national and global crises whose solutions require a human-centered approach. To help generate effective and long-lasting solutions that benefit the entire U.S. public, NSF is providing this funding opportunity to inform possible future Centers for Research and Innovation in Science, the Environment and Society (CRISES). The envisioned centers will catalyze new research and research-based innovations to address seemingly intractable problems that confront our society. They will develop evidence-based solutions that address fundamental quality-of-life issues, such as those involving the environment, extreme weather and sustainability; workforce and the economy; equity and access to opportunities; and well-being. CRISES supports planning proposals to catalyze ideas that will potentially inform or serve as the basis for a larger, center-scale program. This opportunity supports researchers in the social, behavioral and economic sciences who use empirical methods to grapple with crises that impact individuals, families, organizations, regions, nations or our entire planet. The Centers for Research in Science, the Environment and Society initiative invites proposals to take the first steps toward developing large-scale interdisciplinary research activities that will address todays crises and ultimately enhance peoples quality of life. NSF's Social, Behavioral and Economic Sciences Directorate supports research to understand the social and behavioral aspects of our rapidly changing world and how these issues are affected by our social, economic and natural environments. Fundamental and use-inspired research supported by the directorate advances our understanding of people, organizations and society, while revealing emerging opportunities to address challenges affecting our ability to live healthy and productive lives.
