On December 30, 2020, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) released RFA-CE-21-004, Research Grants for Preventing Violence and Violence-Related Injury. CDC intends to commit up to $1,050,000 in FY 2021 to fund up to three applications. CDC is soliciting investigator-initiated research that will help expand and advance the understanding about what works to prevent violence that impacts children and youth, collectively referred to as Adverse Childhood Experiences (ACEs). Research will focus on preventing child abuse and neglect and at least one other form of violence affecting children and youth, including teen dating violence, sexual violence, youth violence, and exposure to adult intimate partner violence. Proposed effectiveness research will address one or more of the following research objectives:
Violence is a significant public health problem in the United States. Exposure to violence in childhood and adolescence can increase risk for later violent experiences, which can have a cumulative and compounding impact on health and well-being across the lifespan. The CDC’s National Center for Injury Prevention and Control Division of Violence Prevention works to stop violence before it begins. |
