Opportunity Information: Apply for PA 19 226
The grant opportunity titled "Behavioral and Social Research to Address Health Disparities in the U.S. (Admin Supp Clinical Trial Optional)" (Funding Opportunity Number PA 19-226) is a National Institutes of Health (NIH) funding announcement from the Department of Health and Human Services, specifically tied to the National Institute on Aging (NIA). It is set up as a discretionary grant opportunity and is meant to provide administrative supplement funding to research teams that already hold an active, funded NIA behavioral and social science research award. In practical terms, this is not a standalone, new grant for an entirely new project; it is additional funding meant to extend or strengthen work that is already underway under an existing NIA-supported project.
The central purpose of the announcement is to advance behavioral and social science research that addresses health and aging disparities in the United States. The supplements are intended to help investigators incorporate a stronger disparities lens into ongoing research on aging and health, with an emphasis on understanding and reducing unequal outcomes across different populations. The FOA supports two main types of supplement requests: first, adding a health disparities component to an existing NIA-funded behavioral or social science project that did not previously focus on disparities; and second, expanding and deepening the disparities focus in a project that is already centered on health disparities. This structure is designed to quickly build the evidence base by leveraging current studies, cohorts, methods, and research infrastructure rather than requiring applicants to start from scratch.
The opportunity is labeled "Clinical Trial Optional," meaning the administrative supplement work may include a clinical trial component if it fits the parent project and the proposed supplement aims, but it is not required. This provides flexibility for projects that might involve interventions, behavioral programs, or other human-subjects research approaches where clinical trial considerations could apply, while still allowing purely observational, secondary data, qualitative, or mixed-methods disparities work where a clinical trial is not part of the design.
Funding details in the source information indicate an award ceiling of $45,500 per supplement, with an expected total of about four awards. That combination suggests relatively small, targeted boosts to existing projects, likely intended for discrete and feasible additions such as collecting additional measures, oversampling or recruiting disparity-affected groups, adding new analytic aims focused on disparities, conducting focused qualitative interviews, enhancing community-engaged components, or carrying out dissemination activities targeted to disparity-impacted communities. Because the mechanism is an administrative supplement, the proposed work would typically be expected to align closely with the scope of the parent award and be achievable within the remaining project period and with limited additional budget.
Eligibility is broad in the sense that many organization types are listed as eligible applicants, including state, county, and local governments; special districts; independent school districts; public and private institutions of higher education; federally recognized tribal governments and other tribal organizations; public housing authorities; nonprofit organizations with or without 501(c)(3) status; for-profit organizations other than small businesses; and small businesses, along with "other" entities as described in NIH eligibility clarifications. Even with this broad list, the key practical eligibility constraint is that the applicant must already have a relevant, active NIA-funded behavioral and social science research project that can receive an administrative supplement under NIH rules.
Administratively, the opportunity was created on March 20, 2019, with an original closing date of May 6, 2019. The CFDA number listed is 93.866, and the activity category is Health. Overall, the announcement is best understood as a targeted NIA effort to accelerate progress on aging-related health disparities by quickly adding or strengthening disparities-focused aims within existing behavioral and social science research projects, using small supplemental awards to generate timely, actionable findings.Apply for PA 19 226
