Opportunity Information: Apply for HRSA 20 057
The R40 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 entirely on secondary analysis. In practice, this means projects must use existing, publicly available and accessible national datasets and/or administrative records, rather than collecting any new primary data. The main value of the program is speed and efficiency: it supports researchers who want to ask new questions, test hypotheses, and examine potential intervention pathways using data that already exist, avoiding the cost and time burden of fielding new surveys, recruiting participants, or conducting new measurements.
The program is structured to ensure that funded studies are not just academic exercises, but directly useful for public health and policy. HRSA expects the findings to strengthen and expand the evidence base tied to the Title V Maternal and Child Health Services Block Grant National Performance Domains, which are central planning and accountability areas used by states and jurisdictions in their Title V work. Projects are also expected to align with HRSA Maternal and Child Health Bureau (MCHB) priorities by addressing strategic research issues such as improving public health systems and infrastructure, reducing health inequities, increasing access to and quality of care, and promoting health across MCH populations. Applicants are encouraged to explicitly connect their research aims to relevant Healthy People 2020 objectives, showing how the work advances nationally recognized health targets.
A notable emphasis of the opportunity is on HRSA clinical priorities, specifically opioid use disorder, mental health, telehealth, childhood obesity, and maternal mortality. Research that strengthens evidence, clarifies risk and protective factors, identifies disparities, or evaluates real-world patterns of care related to these topics fits well within the program’s intent. Beyond these established priority areas, the opportunity also invites proposals on emerging regional or national research topics that introduce new data, knowledge, or strategies for addressing disease burden and health challenges affecting maternal, infant, child, and adolescent populations.
Award recipients are expected to carry out two broad categories of work: rigorous secondary-data research and active dissemination. On the research side, the expectation is applied or translational analysis of critical and emerging MCH issues using appropriate methods and clearly defined, accessible national datasets and/or administrative records. On the dissemination side, each project must develop and submit a plan for sharing findings and products with multiple audiences, not only scientists but also professional stakeholders and the general public. HRSA highlights a wide range of acceptable dissemination products, including peer-reviewed papers, manuscripts, conference presentations, newsletters, webcasts, fact sheets, infographics, policy briefs, publicly available websites, and even social media content when appropriate. The opportunity also requires reporting on study sample diversity, with attention to race/ethnicity, gender/sex, disability, geography, and socioeconomic status, reflecting the program’s interest in equity and the ability to interpret findings across different populations. Finally, awardees are expected to think beyond the grant period by developing and implementing strategies to sustain and expand the scientific knowledge generated, so results continue to inform practice, programs, and future research.
Key administrative details from the notice include the funding opportunity number HRSA-20-057 and CFDA number 93.110. The agency anticipated making about five awards, with an award ceiling of $100,000 per award. The opportunity was posted on October 11, 2019, and originally closed on January 8, 2020.
