Opportunity Summary:
The DoD PH/TBI Community Partners in Mental Health Research Award (CPMHRA) is a Department of Defense funding opportunity created to support research that strengthens mental health and brain injury outcomes for National Guard and Reserve service members, along with their family members and caregivers. The program is tied to the intent of Section 706 and is aimed at generating new knowledge about why these problems occur, how they develop over time, and what kinds of innovative treatments can work better in the real-world contexts that Guard and Reserve communities face. The topics explicitly covered include mental health conditions, substance use disorders, traumatic brain injury (TBI), and suicide prevention, with the central goal being rigorous research that can lead to improved understanding and more effective interventions for these populations.
A defining feature of this award is the requirement for strong involvement of community partners. Projects must be carried out by, or in collaboration with, community-based organizations that have a demonstrated role in this space. In the language of the opportunity, community partners are typically private nonprofit organizations or institutions that engage in at least one of the following: conducting research on causes, development, or innovative treatments; identifying and disseminating evidence-based treatments; or delivering outreach and education related to mental health, substance use, TBI, and suicide prevention for Guard/Reserve members and their support networks. Even though many of these organizations may also do education and outreach, the grant itself is specifically limited to research activities, meaning proposals are expected to be designed as research studies rather than service delivery programs, public awareness campaigns, or training initiatives.
The funding mechanism for this opportunity allows applicants to pursue the work either as a cooperative agreement or a grant, reflecting that the government may anticipate an active partnership or oversight role depending on the project. It falls under the Science and Technology and other Research and Development category, and is administered by the Department of the Army through USAMRAA, with the CFDA listing under 12.420 (Military Medical Research and Development). The opportunity anticipated making about two awards, with an estimated total funding level of $5,000,000, and it did not require cost sharing or matching funds, which can lower barriers for nonprofits, universities, and other research-performing entities.
Eligibility was described as unrestricted, meaning it was broadly open to many applicant types as long as they complied with any additional eligibility clarifications in the full announcement. The timeline shows it was posted on September 19, 2014, and closed on January 23, 2015, with the archive date of February 22, 2015, indicating it is no longer an active competition but remains relevant as a reference point for similar DoD behavioral health and TBI research programs. For technical issues accessing the full announcement, the listed support channel was the eBRAP Help Desk (help@eBRAP.org, 301-682-5507).
