In light of the documented increases in both alcohol misuse (among some individuals) and domestic violence (DV) as a result of the global COVID-19 pandemic and array of mandated restrictions enacted to mitigate COVID spread, the purpose of this grant application solicitation is to announce NIAAA’s interest in addressing the critical need for research related to developing, testing, and intervening proximal to drinking occasions, when risk of DV is elevated, to decrease the likelihood of alcohol consumption at levels sufficient to trigger DV and to provide skills shown to reduce risk of DV perpetration and victimization. In particular, this solicitation seeks to advance the development, feasibility, acceptability, pilot testing, potential efficacy, and implementation of scalable, low resource, and remotely delivered interventions via mobile devices ( mHealth ) that rely on communication technologies for reducing and preventing alcohol consumption and DV. For this FOA, the term “domestic violence” will extend to child maltreatment (abuse and neglect) and elder abuse, in addition to intimate partner violence (IPV).
This notice applies to due dates on or after June 5, 2023 and subsequent receipt dates through September 8, 2026.
