Preventing Suicide and Interpersonal Violence Among Youth and Young Adults

Summary

The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention's (CDC) National Center for Injury Prevention and Control (NCIPC) seeks investigator-initiated research proposals to evaluate primary prevention-focused approaches to reduce suicide and interpersonal violence among youth and young adults (ages 10 to 24 years). This NOFO will support the evaluation of existing primary prevention approaches (i.e., approaches that are already developed and implemented or have been shown to be ready for implementation) that have not yet undergone rigorous evaluation. For this announcement, "approaches" can include programs, policies, or practices. Applicants can propose to evaluate approaches that: • Reduce suicide-related outcomes, enhancing social connectedness and social cohesion at the community level • Reduce or mitigate the impact of unhealthy behaviors or experiences in online spaces on suicide-related outcomes • Evaluate approaches to reduce the incidence and/or harm caused by technology-facilitated forms of interpersonal violence
