Opportunity Information: Apply for RFA HD 24 009
This funding opportunity (RFA-HD-24-009) from the National Institutes of Health supports a cooperative agreement to establish and run the Implementation Science Coordinating Center for the Prevention and Treatment through a Comprehensive Care Continuum for HIV-affected Adolescents in Resource Constrained Settings Implementation Science Network, referred to as PATCH-IN (also described as PATC3H-IN in the notice text). The overall purpose is to strengthen and coordinate a multi-site implementation science research network focused on adolescents and youth in low-to-middle income countries, with an emphasis on both preventing new HIV infections among adolescents at risk and improving the full care continuum for youth living with HIV, including identification, linkage to care, retention in care, and sustained viral suppression over time. The coordinating center is meant to act as the backbone for the network, helping align research efforts, promote consistent methods and measures, and support collaboration across participating sites and investigators.
A central theme of the opportunity is expansion: the network is expected to build on successes from the earlier PATC3H initiative by extending effective approaches into new geographic areas that have limited implementation science research capacity. It also aims to push the field to better include and serve adolescent populations that are often missing or underrepresented in international HIV research, particularly groups facing layered stigma and structural barriers such as sexual and gender minorities, commercial sex workers, and adolescents who use drugs. By explicitly naming these groups, the program signals that proposals should not only address biomedical outcomes but also the real-world delivery challenges that determine whether interventions reach the young people who need them and can be sustained in routine settings.
Because the award mechanism is a cooperative agreement, applicants should expect substantial NIH involvement in the conduct and direction of the program compared to a standard research grant. In practice, this typically means the coordinating center will be expected to work closely with NIH program staff and network partners on shared milestones, harmonized study procedures, common data elements where appropriate, and cross-site learning and dissemination. The notice also indicates the award is "clinical trial optional," meaning applications may include a clinical trial component if it fits the coordinating center role and network needs, but a trial is not strictly required.
In terms of who can apply, eligibility is broad and includes many types of U.S. and non-U.S. organizations. Eligible applicants listed in the source include state, county, and local governments; special districts; independent school districts; public and state-controlled institutions of higher education; private institutions of higher education; federally recognized tribal governments and other tribal organizations; public housing authorities/Indian housing authorities; nonprofits with or without 501(c)(3) status; for-profit organizations other than small businesses; small businesses; and other entities. The notice also highlights additional eligible applicant categories such as Historically Black Colleges and Universities, Hispanic-serving institutions, Tribally Controlled Colleges and Universities, Alaska Native and Native Hawaiian Serving Institutions, Asian American Native American Pacific Islander Serving Institutions, faith-based or community-based organizations, U.S. territories or possessions, and non-U.S. entities and regional organizations. This wide eligibility aligns with the program's emphasis on building implementation science capacity and partnering with organizations that are positioned to do real-world work in diverse settings.
Key logistics included in the opportunity summary are that it falls under the discretionary funding category and the health-related assistance listing CFDA 93.865. The original closing date shown is December 6, 2023. The award ceiling is listed as $1,250,000, and the opportunity anticipates making awards (the exact number is not provided in the excerpt). Overall, the funding is geared toward creating strong coordination and technical infrastructure for a network that can generate practical implementation science evidence on what works, for whom, and under what conditions, to prevent adolescent HIV infections and to improve long-term treatment outcomes for adolescents and youth living with HIV in resource-constrained LMIC settings.Apply for RFA HD 24 009
