Opportunity Summary:
The Diversity Promoting Institutions Drug Abuse Research Program (DIDARP) (R24) is a National Institute on Drug Abuse (NIDA), National Institutes of Health (NIH) funding opportunity designed to help colleges and universities that serve economically disadvantaged students and communities build stronger drug abuse research capacity. The core idea is to invest in institutional research infrastructure so these schools can expand their ability to conduct high-quality drug abuse and addiction research while also supporting the research career development of a more diverse pipeline of faculty, students, and staff. A central emphasis is on increasing participation of individuals who are currently underrepresented in drug abuse research, with the expectation that the funded activities will strengthen both the institution and the people working within it.
This opportunity uses the NIH Resource Related Research Project Grant (R24) mechanism. In practical terms, that means the program is oriented toward developing or enhancing resources, shared capabilities, research support systems, and structured activities that enable research and training-like career development, rather than funding a single narrowly defined research study alone. Applicants are expected to propose plans that make their institution more research-ready in the drug abuse field, such as improving research support structures, creating or upgrading research cores or shared services, building collaborations, enhancing faculty and trainee development opportunities, and other capacity-building strategies aligned with NIDA priorities.
Funding can be requested for up to 5 years, with budgets up to $350,000 per year in direct costs. The announcement notes that award sizes and durations may vary depending on the scope of what an institution proposes. It also indicates that the total number of awards and total funding levels are not fixed in advance and will ultimately depend on the number of applications received, their quality, and their requested budgets and project periods. There is no cost sharing or matching requirement, which can make the program more accessible for institutions with limited discretionary resources.
Eligibility is geared toward higher education institutions, including public or state-controlled institutions and private institutions of higher education. The opportunity explicitly includes institutions that serve populations historically underrepresented in biomedical research and those that often educate large numbers of economically disadvantaged students. Examples listed include Historically Black Colleges and Universities (HBCUs), Hispanic-Serving Institutions, Tribally Controlled Colleges and Universities (TCCUs), and Alaska Native and Native Hawaiian Serving Institutions, along with other eligible organizations as described in the full announcement.
Key administrative details from the source listing include Funding Opportunity Number PAR-11-060, categorized as a discretionary grant. The activity areas are education and health, and the program is associated with CFDA number 93.279 (Drug Abuse and Addiction Research Programs). The opportunity was posted and created on December 6, 2010, with an original and current closing date of September 9, 2013, and an archive date of October 10, 2013, meaning it is no longer active but remains a useful reference point for similar NIDA/NIH capacity-building programs. Additional information was provided through the NIH Grants Guide page for PAR-11-060, and contact support was directed to the NIH Office of Extramural Research (OER) webmaster for access or linking issues.
