Research Grants for Preventing Interpersonal Violence and Suicide Among Youth and Young Adults (R01)

Funder: Dept. of Health & Human Services: Centers for Disease Control & Prevention

The Research Grants for Preventing Violence and Violence Related Injury (R01) aim to fund innovative effectiveness research addressing interpersonal violence and suicide among high-risk groups, particularly youth aged 10-24. This initiative emphasizes evaluating untested programs and policies, with a focus on understanding their impact on various affected populations. The goal is to support studies that prevent violence and promote safety through evidence-based interventions.

This initiative is intended to support effectiveness research to evaluate innovative programs, practices, or policies to address risk for interpersonal violence and suicide among groups experiencing a high burden of these issues. Innovative approaches are those that have not been rigorously evaluated for effectiveness in reducing interpersonal violence or suicide. Analyses examining how the approach affects different populations that are most impacted by these issues are a priority. Funds are available to conduct studies focused on preventing interpersonal violence or suicide involving youth or young adults (ages 10–24 years), including child abuse and neglect, intimate partner violence, sexual violence, suicide, and youth violence.
