To fund Healthy Homes and Weatherization Cooperation Demonstration grants in up to 5 communities that provide housing interventions in lower-income households that are served by both HUDs Healthy Homes Production (HHP) program and DOEs Weatherization Assistance Program (WAP) to determine whether coordination between the programs concerning the implementation of healthy homes remediation activities and energy conservation measures achieves cost-effectiveness and better outcomes in improving the safety and quality of homes. The following are the major goals and objectives of this NOFO: (1) Demonstrate effective strategies for coordination between HUDs HHP and DOEs WAP programs that maximize program efficiencies and benefits to occupants.(2) Reduce WAP deferrals through coordination with HHP programs.(3) Demonstrate sustainable models of inter-program cooperation, including data sharing, reporting, and targeting/recruiting clients.(4) Demonstrate effective models for the sustainable financing of coordinated healthy homes/weatherization interventions.(5) Support the collection of data to evaluate the housing interventions conducted through inter-program coordination (e.g., program cost efficiencies that can be achieved, improvements in indoor environmental quality, improved health outcomes, and additional safety benefits to households).

The purpose of this Notice of Funding Opportunity (NOFO) is to support the development and validation of reagents/tools to support research to characterize cellular and molecular constituents of the bat immune system and for the study of protective innate and adaptive immune mechanisms in bats. The Research Resource Program established by this NOFO will participate within a collaborative research network to advance understanding of the bat immune response. This NOFO will support the establishment and operation of a Bat Immunology Research Resource Program for the development and validation of reagents/tools for use in immunological studies using the bat model system. The recipient will participate in the Bat Immunology Network, which will consist of the Research Resource Program, the research projects supported by RFA-AI-23-068, and possible other participants as determined by NIAID. The Research Resource Program will conduct reagent/tool development and validation using appropriate systems, which includes testing against multiple bat species. While other members of the Bat Immunology Network may assist in validation efforts, reagent/tool validation is the responsibility of the Research Resource Program. Reagents/tools developed by the Research Resource Program will be provided to the research projects of the Bat Immunology Network. Reagents/tools will be made available to the broader research community through technology transfer arrangements, deposition to nonprofit repositories, and/or timely transfer to industry for commercialization. Areas of high priority include, but are not limited to, the development and validation of the following: Soluble immune molecules (e.g., cytokines, chemokines) for use in tissue culture or in vivo animal studies Antibodies or other probes/detection markers for use in cellular phenotyping, functional studies and/or immunoassays
