Opportunity Summary:
The Autism Intervention Research Network on Physical Health (AIR-P Network) is a Health Resources and Services Administration (HRSA) grant opportunity designed to build and sustain a coordinated research network focused on improving the physical health and overall well-being of children and adolescents with autism spectrum disorder (ASD) and other developmental disabilities. The program centers on creating the kind of shared infrastructure a multi-site network needs to consistently carry out high-quality, evidence-based research, translate findings into practical guidance, and speed the adoption of better care in real-world clinical and community settings. In this context, "physical health" is meant broadly and can include medical care, dental health, vision, nutrition, and speech and hearing, among other related areas.
At its core, the AIR-P Network is expected to do five major things. First, it must conduct research on evidence-based interventions that measurably improve physical health outcomes for children and adolescents with ASD and other developmental disabilities. Second, it must develop new, and/or update existing, evidence-based clinical guidelines and also validate tools that can be used to improve health care delivery for this population; this emphasizes not just publishing findings, but producing usable products that clinicians and systems can rely on. Third, the network must actively disseminate what it learns by sharing research results, guidelines, and validated tools with health professionals and with the public, with a specific focus on families and communities affected by ASD and other developmental disabilities. Fourth, the program places a clear priority on workforce development by requiring the network to develop and mentor new investigators, helping expand the pipeline of researchers who can sustain and grow the field over time. Fifth, the network is expected to push beyond research and publication by fostering the transfer of proven interventions, guidelines, tools, and systems-management approaches into routine practice and community implementation, with the aim of improving the quality and consistency of care through evidence-based practices.
This opportunity was issued as a discretionary cooperative agreement, meaning HRSA would typically have substantial involvement in the funded project compared with a more hands-off grant mechanism. HRSA anticipated making one award, with an estimated total funding level of 4,000,000 dollars. There was no cost sharing or matching requirement listed, reducing the need for applicants to bring non-federal dollars as a condition of award.
Eligible applicants included public and nonprofit institutions of higher education as well as public or private nonprofit agencies, as long as they were engaged in research related to ASD and other developmental disabilities. The funding opportunity number was HRSA-11-078, and it fell under CFDA 93.110 (Maternal and Child Health Federal Consolidated Programs). Key dates included a posted date of February 10, 2011, and an application closing date of March 29, 2011, with the opportunity later archived on May 28, 2011. For applicants needing help accessing the full announcement, HRSA directed inquiries to the HRSA Call Center (CallCenter@HRSA.GOV) and provided phone support through 877-464-4772.
