Research Opportunities in Crisis Response Services for Suicide Prevention (R01 Clinical Trial Optional)

Funding Opportunity RFA-MH-25-135 from the NIH Guide for Grants and Contracts. As part of the Suicide Prevention Transformative Project workgroups research agenda, the purpose of this Notice of Funding Opportunity (NOFO) is to support research examining the impact of state and local policy on the introduction, implementation and outcomes of crisis response services, including those under the 988 rollout (e.g., research focused on how policy impacts the availability, use, nature, and outcomes of services). Research is sought that is conducted in real-world settings, where a wide range of clinical presentations, psychosocial factors, age-related (e.g., youth; adult; older adult), geographic (rural/remote settings), cultural considerations, and health disparities influence the types of care that are provided. Studies are encouraged that address the continuum of crisis service systems, as well as applications that address crisis services for children and under-resourced populations.
