Assistance Listing Number: 14.267

OMB Approval Number: 2506-0112

Deadline Date: November 21, 2024

Description:

The Continuum of Care (CoC) Builds (CoCBuilds) NOFO targets efforts within CoC geographic areas to address and reduce persons experiencing homelessness by adding new units of permanent supportive housing (PSH) through new construction, acquisition, or rehabilitation through one-time CoCBuilds awards under the CoC Program. Through the CoCBuilds NOFO, HUD is encouraging CoCs to leverage funds provided for construction, acquisition, or rehabilitation of new PSH units with other funding sources to maximize the amount of housing that can directed to meeting the needs of individuals and families experiencing homelessness. PSH is permanent housing in which supportive services are provided to assist individuals with a disability and families where at least one household member has a disability and is experiencing homelessness to live independently. Additionally, no more than 20 percent of each award may be used for other eligible CoC Program activities associated with the PSH project (e.g., supportive services, operating costs (Section IV.G.3 of this NOFO)), and no more than 10 percent of an award may be used for project administration.

Remote Assessments of Substance Use Disorder (SUD)-Relevant Measurements

Overview:

The National Institute on Drug Abuse (NIDA), one of the components of the National Institutes of Health (NIH), is announcing the “Remote Assessments of Substance Use Disorder (SUD)-Relevant Measurements” Challenge. The goal of the Challenge is to identify and highlight the current best practices and state-of-the-art approaches to collect remotely assessed measurements of SUD-relevant cognitive, behavioral, physiologic, and environmental information, and compare these to measurements collected in controlled experimental settings (e.g., laboratory or clinical settings). Examples of relevant measurements include physiologic and biological measures, cognitive task performance, behavioral and social measures, and environmental characterizations. 

Further, remote assessment approaches should demonstrate the ability to lower the burdens of participation for research participants, particularly disproportionality affected groups and/or under-resourced communities. NIDA expects that the Challenge will inspire adoption of best practices in remote assessment of SUD-relevant measurements by the wider research community. To accomplish these goals, this Challenge will provide both monetary support and exposure to current best practices and methodologies. NIDA will also convene a meeting to highlight the winning submission(s) to foster a community of current and future remote assessment practitioners.

The Challenge will offer up to three awards: up to $150,000 for one first place entry and up to $50,000 each for two second place entries, as well as up to two honorable mention awards of up to $25,000 each. The Challenge total purse is up to $300,000. 

Key Dates:

  • Challenge Launch: September 30, 2024
  • Submission Start: October 15, 2024 9:00 AM ET
  • Submission End: January 15, 2025 6:00 PM ET
