The purpose of this notice of funding opportunity (NOFO) is to support planning and development, including pilot or feasibility research, to improve health in Native American populations. Proposed research may address health promotion, disease prevention, treatment, recovery, or services research to inform intervention implementation and dissemination. Research with Native American populations requires engagement with tribal partners and communities to develop and/or adapt interventions and clinical trial protocols, understand intervention feasibility and acceptability, and identify and/or develop scientifically rigorous and culturally appropriate study designs and methods. Preparatory studies may fill information gaps, address unknowns, allow for strengthening of partnerships with Native American community leaders and organizations, and pilot test the feasibility of the intervention and clinical trial design, thereby improving scientific rigor and cultural appropriateness of a future efficacy, effectiveness, or implementation trial. This NOFO is part of the Intervention Research to Improve Native American Health (IRINAH) initiative, which also includes PAR-23-298 , which uses the R01 Research Project Grant mechanism and PAR-23-299 , which uses the R21 Exploratory/Developmental Research Grant mechanism.
For the purposes of this NOFO, Native Americans include the following populations: Alaska Natives, American Indians (whose ancestral lands fall at least partially within the U.S. mainland border), and Native Hawaiians. The term ‘Native Hawaiian’ means any individual any of whose ancestors were natives, prior to 1778, of the area which now comprises the State of Hawaii.
