Interrupting the Cycle of Violence Against Women Through Targeted Approaches: The We Care Initiative

The National Institute of Nursing Research (NINR), alongside other NIH Institutes, Centers, and Offices, plans to release a funding opportunity notice for the "Interrupting the Cycle of Violence Against Women Through Targeted Approaches: The We Care Initiative." This initiative aims to support research that employs diverse designs and methodologies to broaden the scientific understanding of effective strategies for preventing, treating, and ultimately eliminating violence against women. The focus is on addressing the specific living conditions and contexts influencing individuals’ lives to improve health outcomes related to violence against women. Applications will be solicited to fund studies that contribute to a stronger evidence base in this area, enabling targeted approaches that can disrupt the cycle of violence. The initiative emphasizes the importance of contextual and tailored solutions in enhancing health and well-being for women affected by violence. The point of contact for this opportunity is Dr. Shalanda A. Bynum from the National Institute of Nursing Research, and further details will be accessible via the NIH grants website when the notice is published.
