Opportunity Information: Apply for HHS 2008 CMS HBCU 0006
The Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS) is offering funding to Historically Black Colleges and Universities (HBCUs) for health services research in Fiscal Year 2008. The goal is to support small research projects focused on identifying and evaluating solutions to eliminate health disparities affecting the African American population. Additionally, the funding aims to strengthen HBCUs' capacity to secure future CMS research and program funds.
HBCUs are encouraged to engage in various aspects of these research projects, which should address healthcare issues such as financing, delivery, access, quality, and barriers faced by the African American community. CMS recognizes the crucial role of HBCUs in tackling significant health challenges and believes that the specific expertise and sensitivity of HBCU researchers can greatly contribute to national efforts to reduce health disparities.
This initiative is aligned with President George Bush's Executive Order 13256, which aims to enhance the capacity of HBCUs to participate in federal programs. The program seeks to ensure ongoing support for HBCUs through grants and other funding opportunities, while also establishing annual plans within federal agencies to boost HBCUs' competitiveness for funding. Overall, this grant program represents a commitment to fostering the involvement and development of HBCU researchers in health services research.Apply for HHS 2008 CMS HBCU 0006
