Opportunity Information: Apply for HRSA 22 096
The Maternal and Child Health Secondary Data Analysis Research (MCH SDAR) program is a discretionary grant opportunity from the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, Health Resources and Services Administration (HRSA), designed to fund applied maternal and child health (MCH) research that relies on secondary analysis of existing data. Instead of supporting new primary data collection, the program focuses on getting more value out of national data sets and administrative records that already exist, using them to answer timely research questions, test hypotheses, spot emerging issues, and clarify how problems develop and what intervention pathways might work. The underlying idea is practical: MCH programs, policymakers, and practitioners are constantly facing both long-standing and newly evolving public health challenges, including issues affecting children with special health care needs, and they need evidence quickly. When the evidence base is thin or outdated, it becomes harder to design effective interventions or respond to new trends; MCH SDAR is intended to help close that gap by generating actionable findings faster through analysis of already available data.
HRSA expects the research produced through MCH SDAR to directly strengthen and expand the evidence base connected to the Title V Maternal and Child Health Services Block Grant, particularly the Title V National Performance Measures. In other words, funded projects should contribute knowledge that states and other MCH stakeholders can use to track performance and improve outcomes in areas that Title V prioritizes. The program is also meant to inform HRSA’s Maternal and Child Health Bureau (MCHB) investments more broadly by producing research that can shape future programming and decision-making across MCHB initiatives.
A strong application is expected to align with major federal and bureau-level priorities. Projects should address one or more HRSA MCHB strategic research issues such as strengthening public health systems and infrastructure, reducing health inequities and inequalities, improving access to and quality of care, addressing health disparities, advancing health equity, and promoting the health of MCH populations overall. Applicants are also expected to connect their topic to relevant Healthy People 2030 objectives, showing how their proposed analyses will contribute to nationally recognized goals. In addition, projects should fit within the MCHB Strategic Plan Goals and respond to health disparities affecting underserved communities by using existing data to generate evidence and practical strategies that support equity across MCH populations regardless of race or ethnicity. HRSA also emphasizes the importance of research topics with regional and national significance, particularly work that surfaces new insights, highlights emerging data and knowledge, and proposes strategies to reduce the burden of diseases and conditions affecting MCH populations.
Award recipients are expected to do more than complete an analysis and write up results. HRSA lays out several concrete deliverables and responsibilities. Grantees must conduct applied or translational research using secondary analyses of national databases and/or administrative records in ways that clearly align with the program’s research goals. They must also develop and submit a dissemination plan that explains how findings and products will reach scientific audiences, professional stakeholders, and the general public. Dissemination can include peer-reviewed publications, manuscripts, conference presentations, newsletters, webcasts, fact sheets, infographics, policy briefs, publicly accessible websites, and social media content, reflecting an expectation that research results will be translated into formats that are usable outside academia. On the reporting side, recipients must provide HRSA with study sample diversity information through Electronic Handbooks (EHBs) reports, including dimensions such as race and ethnicity, gender or sex, disability status, geographic location, and socioeconomic status. Grantees are also expected to create and implement strategies to sustain and expand the scientific knowledge generated by the award, signaling that HRSA is looking for impact that lasts beyond the grant period. Finally, recipients must present their findings to MCHB staff at an End of Project Presentation (Research Festival), reinforcing the program’s emphasis on direct communication of results to federal MCH leadership.
Key administrative details from the notice include the funding opportunity number HRSA-22-096 and the CFDA number 93.110. The funding instrument is a grant, and the activity category is health.
