PURPOSE: The objective of this Notice of Special Interest (NOSI) is to solicit applications for Resource-Related Research Projects, including a Coordination, Consultation, and Data Management Center (CCDMC) and Regional Consultation Hubs (RCHs), that will support ongoing implementation science research funded by the National Institutes of Health (NIH) to address the goals of the Ending the HIV Epidemic in the U.S. (EHE) initiative. The EHE initiative was announced by the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) in 2019 with the overall goal of reducing the number of new HIV infections in the United States by at least 90% by 2030, compared to the baseline infection rate in 2017. The CCDMC and RCHs will provide scientific leadership and technical assistance to support the NIH EHE research portfolio and will synthesize findings across research projects to create generalizable and actionable implementation knowledge. Recipients will work closely with program officials at the National Institutes of Health (NIH) and will communicate regularly with staff at other HHS agencies, with the goal of accelerating dissemination of best practices to federal and local implementing partners involved in EHE.
