Opportunity Summary:
The funding opportunity titled "One Year Administrative Supplements to NIMH supported Research for FY2015 (Admin Supp)" (Funding Opportunity Number PA 15 128) is a discretionary grant program released by the National Institutes of Health, specifically through the National Institute of Mental Health (NIMH). It was posted on February 27, 2015, with an application deadline of June 1, 2015, and it was later archived on July 2, 2015. The purpose of this announcement is to make short-term, one-year administrative supplement funding available to investigators who already hold active NIMH-supported research grants, allowing them to expand or continue aspects of their ongoing projects during FY2015.
The central idea behind this opportunity is that it does not fund entirely new, stand-alone projects. Instead, it provides supplemental funds to strengthen and accelerate work that is already underway under an existing NIMH award. Applicants are expected to propose activities that fit within NIMH-identified priority areas and align with the Institute's broader goal of accelerating progress in mental health research, as described in the NIMH Strategic Plan. In practical terms, this means the supplement request should be clearly connected to the parent grant, while also addressing a priority topic NIMH is emphasizing for that fiscal year. The announcement is framed as a way to rapidly support research directions that are timely, high-impact, and closely tied to the Institute's strategic priorities.
This opportunity is categorized under the Health funding activity area and is associated with CFDA number 93.242 (Mental Health Research Grants). The funding instrument is a grant, and there is no cost sharing or matching requirement, meaning applicants are not required to contribute non-federal funds as a condition of receiving the supplement. Because it is an administrative supplement, eligibility is fundamentally tied to having an active NIMH-supported research award that can receive and administer additional funds.
A wide range of applicant organizations are listed as eligible, reflecting the broad eligibility typical of NIH funding mechanisms when tied to existing awards. Eligible applicants include state, county, city or township governments; special district governments; independent school districts; and public housing authorities/Indian housing authorities. Academic institutions are eligible, including public and state-controlled institutions of higher education and private institutions of higher education. The announcement also includes nonprofit organizations (both those with 501(c)(3) status and those without 501(c)(3) status, excluding institutions of higher education in those nonprofit categories), as well as for-profit organizations other than small businesses and small businesses. Tribal entities are included, both federally recognized Native American tribal governments and other tribal organizations, along with tribally controlled colleges and universities.
The eligibility language also explicitly points to additional eligible applicant types such as historically underserved and special-designation institutions, including Historically Black Colleges and Universities (HBCUs), Hispanic-serving institutions, Alaska Native and Native Hawaiian Serving Institutions, and Asian American and Native American Pacific Islander Serving Institutions (AANAPISISs). Faith-based and community-based organizations are listed, as are eligible federal agencies. The announcement also allows participation by non-U.S. entities (foreign organizations), regional organizations, and U.S. territories or possessions, which signals that the program is not limited strictly to domestic institutions, provided the supplement is appropriate for the parent award and meets NIH and NIMH requirements.
