Under the Ending the HIV Epidemic (EHE) initiative, the National Institute on Drug Abuse (NIDA) is releasing a set of interrelated Request for Applications (RFAs) to create the HIV/Justice Research Network, a coordinated effort to develop innovative strategies to promote improvements in HIV prevention and treatment services for individuals involved in the criminal legal system with substance use disorder (SUD). Separate Notices of Funding Opportunity (NOFOs) are being issued to support three elements: multiple Regional Research Hubs (RRH; RFA-DA-24-015); one Data Coordination and Dissemination Center (DCDC; RFA-DA-24-023); and one Patient Engagement Resource Center (PERC; RFA-DA-24-022). It is imperative that prospective applicants read all of these related NOFOs to better understand the intended purpose and structure of the HIV/Justice Research Network.
This NOFO seeks applications for a Data Coordination and Dissemination Center (DCDC). The DCDC will provide broad coordination and infrastructure support for RRHs funded under RFA-DA-24-015. The DCDC will also work closely with the PERC to engage key stakeholders in network activities. Key responsibilities include administrative and logistical support; data and analytic support; dissemination and stakeholder engagement support; as well as targeted research projects to support the overall work of the network.
