Opportunity Summary:
The Autism Intervention Research Network on Behavioral Health (AIR-B Network) is a federal cooperative agreement opportunity from the Health Resources and Services Administration (HRSA) intended to build and sustain a national research network focused on improving the behavioral health and related outcomes of children and adolescents with autism spectrum disorder (ASD) and other developmental disabilities. The central idea is not just to fund a single study, but to support an organized infrastructure that can consistently generate high-quality, practice-relevant research on evidence-based interventions and move those findings into real-world care and community settings.
The program lays out a clear set of responsibilities for the funded network. First, the network is expected to conduct research on evidence-based intervention practices that improve behavioral, mental, social, and cognitive health and overall well-being for children and adolescents affected by ASD and other developmental disabilities. Second, it must develop and/or update evidence-based guidelines and also validate practical tools that clinicians and systems can use when delivering or coordinating interventions. Third, the network has a strong dissemination role: it must communicate research results, guidelines, and validated tools to health professionals and the public, with particular attention to families who are directly affected by ASD and other developmental disabilities. Fourth, the program emphasizes workforce development by requiring the network to develop and mentor new investigators, helping to grow the pipeline of researchers with expertise in ASD and developmental disability intervention research. Fifth, the network is expected to actively support implementation by fostering the transfer of findings, guidelines, tools, and systems-management approaches into practice settings and communities, so evidence-based practices are adopted and care improves in measurable ways.
From an administrative standpoint, this opportunity was offered as a discretionary award using a cooperative agreement mechanism, which typically means HRSA anticipates substantial involvement with the awardee beyond standard grant monitoring, often through collaborative planning, shared priorities, and ongoing technical input. The funding activity is categorized under health, with an estimated total funding level of $2,000,000 and an expected number of awards of one, indicating a single lead entity would likely coordinate the network and its partners. There was no cost-sharing or matching requirement.
Eligibility was limited to public and nonprofit institutions of higher learning and public or private nonprofit agencies that are engaged in research related to ASD and other developmental disabilities. The opportunity was posted on February 10, 2011, with a closing date of March 28, 2011, and it was archived on May 27, 2011. The relevant CFDA number listed is 93.110 (Maternal and Child Health Federal Consolidated Programs). For applicants or interested parties who had trouble accessing the full announcement at the time, HRSA directed inquiries to the HRSA Call Center (CallCenter@HRSA.GOV) and provided phone contact options.
