Opportunity Summary:

The Family Centered Self Management of Chronic Conditions (R01) funding opportunity (PA-14-112) was a National Institutes of Health (NIH) discretionary grant announcement designed to strengthen and expand the scientific evidence base around family centered self management (FCSM) for chronic health conditions. In practical terms, the program focused on research that looks beyond the individual patient and instead studies self-management as something that often happens within a family system, where relatives, partners, or other close caregivers influence daily decisions, routines, adherence, coping, symptom monitoring, and responses to flare-ups. The overall intent was to support rigorous research that improves understanding of how family involvement can be structured, measured, and leveraged to improve health outcomes in chronic illness contexts, and to develop stronger, testable models and interventions that reflect real-world family dynamics.

This opportunity used the NIH R01 mechanism, meaning it supported investigator-initiated, hypothesis-driven or theory-driven research projects that are typically larger in scope and duration than exploratory mechanisms. The activity area was in education and health, and it was tied to CFDA 93.361 (Nursing Research), which signals a strong alignment with nursing science and patient- and family-centered care research, although applicants were not limited to nursing departments. The announcement explicitly stated there was no cost sharing or matching requirement, so applicants were not expected to provide institutional matching funds as a condition of award.

A wide range of organizations were eligible to apply. Eligible applicants included public and private institutions of higher education, nonprofit organizations (both those with and without 501(c)(3) status, other than institutions of higher education), small businesses, and for-profit organizations (other than small businesses), as well as state, county, city or township governments, special district governments, and independent school districts. The eligibility also extended to tribal entities and housing authorities, including Native American tribal governments (federally recognized) and tribal organizations (other than federally recognized tribal governments), along with public housing authorities and Indian housing authorities. The eligibility language was intentionally broad and also included a detailed list of additional eligible applicants such as Historically Black Colleges and Universities (HBCUs), Hispanic-serving Institutions, Tribally Controlled Colleges and Universities (TCCUs), Alaska Native and Native Hawaiian Serving Institutions, and Asian American Native American Pacific Islander Serving Institutions (AANAPISIs), as well as faith-based and community-based organizations and eligible federal agencies. Importantly, non-U.S. entities were eligible too: foreign organizations and foreign institutions could apply, non-U.S. components of U.S. organizations were eligible, and foreign components were allowed as defined in NIH policy. This international eligibility reflects the idea that family-centered approaches to chronic disease management can be studied across cultures and health systems, and that lessons learned may be transferable or at least informative for NIH’s research priorities.

From an administrative timeline standpoint, the announcement was posted and created on February 24, 2014. The original closing date was May 7, 2017, which remained the final closing date, and the opportunity was archived on June 7, 2017. Because it is archived, it is no longer accepting applications, but it remains a useful reference point for the types of family-centered self-management research NIH was explicitly encouraging under this call.

NIH listed an online resource for the complete announcement at http://grants.nih.gov/grants/guide/pa-files/PA-14-112.html. For access or technical issues related to the announcement, the contact provided was the NIH Office of Extramural Research (OER) Webmaster at FBOWebmaster@OD.NIH.GOV, which is consistent with NIH’s practice of routing FOA access problems through OER support rather than scientific program staff.

Overall, this FOA can be summarized as an NIH R01 research funding call aimed at building the science around how families influence, support, and sometimes complicate chronic condition self-management, with the goal of producing stronger evidence, models, measures, and interventions that reflect the family context in which chronic illness care is often carried out day to day.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs): Family Centered Self Management of Chronic Conditions (R01) - PA-14-112

What is the Family Centered Self Management of Chronic Conditions (R01) funding opportunity (PA-14-112)?

PA-14-112 was a National Institutes of Health (NIH) discretionary grant announcement that supported research to strengthen and expand the scientific evidence base for family centered self management (FCSM) in chronic health conditions. It emphasized studying self-management within a family system rather than only at the individual patient level.

What was the main goal of this NIH announcement?

The intent was to fund rigorous research that improves understanding of how family involvement can be structured, measured, and leveraged to improve outcomes in chronic illness. The opportunity aimed to foster stronger, testable models and interventions that reflect real-world family dynamics affecting day-to-day self-management.

What does "family centered self management (FCSM)" mean in this context?

In this announcement, FCSM referred to chronic condition self-management as something that often happens within a family system.
