Opportunity Summary:
This grant opportunity, titled "Integrative Prevention Research for Alcohol Users At Risk for HIV/AIDS (R01)," comes from the National Institute on Alcohol Abuse and Alcoholism (NIAAA) within the National Institutes of Health (NIH). It is designed to support Research Project Grant (R01) applications that connect basic behavioral research with intervention research in a single, integrated prevention framework. The central goal is to improve prevention of HIV/AIDS risk that is linked to alcohol use, with an emphasis on understanding behavior and translating that understanding into practical, testable strategies that reduce risk in real-world settings.
The FOA (Funding Opportunity Announcement) encourages applicants to bring together two areas that are often separated: research that explains why alcohol use contributes to HIV risk behaviors (basic behavioral research) and research that tests ways to prevent or reduce those behaviors (intervention research). In practice, that means proposals are expected to do more than simply describe risk patterns or only evaluate an intervention in isolation. The intent is for studies to build a clearer chain of evidence from behavioral mechanisms (for example, decision-making under intoxication, social and sexual context, risk perception, partner negotiation, adherence to safer sex practices, or other behavioral pathways influenced by alcohol) to the design, refinement, and evaluation of prevention approaches aimed at lowering alcohol-related HIV exposure and transmission risk.
The program is offered as a discretionary grant under the NIH R01 mechanism, which typically supports well-developed research projects that can be carried out over multiple years with a defined set of aims, methods, and outcomes. The activity category is health, and it is associated with CFDA number 93.273 (Alcohol Research Programs). There is no cost sharing or matching requirement, meaning applicants are not required to commit non-federal matching funds as a condition of receiving the award.
Eligibility is broad and includes many kinds of organizations. Public and private institutions of higher education can apply, along with nonprofits (including both 501(c)(3) and non-501(c)(3) organizations), small businesses, other for-profit organizations (excluding small businesses in that specific listing, though small businesses are separately eligible), and a range of government entities such as city/township, county, state, special district governments, and independent school districts. The FOA also lists Native American tribal governments (federally recognized) and Native American tribal organizations (other than federally recognized tribal governments), as well as public housing authorities and Indian housing authorities. Beyond that, the eligibility notes clarify that foreign institutions are allowed to apply, eligible agencies of the federal government may apply, and faith-based or community-based organizations are also eligible. In other words, NIH is signaling that it is open to proposals from academic, clinical, community, governmental, and international settings, as long as the application fits the scientific goals of the announcement.
Timing for submissions is structured around multiple receipt dates rather than one single deadline, which is common for many NIH program announcements. The FOA was posted on October 17, 2007, with a creation date of December 5, 2008, and it was later archived on October 8, 2010. While it is archived historically, the listing indicates that applicants should consult the full announcement for the specific receipt dates and rules that applied during its active period. The official full announcement is linked through the NIH grants guide at: http://grants.nih.gov/grants/guide/pa-files/PA-08-006.html (as written in the source, spacing may need to be corrected when entering the URL).
