RR2 Funding Details

  • What are appropriate uses of grant funding?

    Funding requests should only be for activities that applicants had yet to complete on the original, terminated grant. This can include salary support, participant incentives, dissemination activities (e.g., open access fees, conference presentations, product development), tuition and other support for graduate students, and other research costs. This must NOT include funding to conduct NEW research activities, aside from additional funding for dissemination to reach the $50k minimum grant threshold.

  • What are allowable grant durations?

    Grant durations up to 24 months are permitted.

  • How much funding is available per award?

    Awards may range from $50,000 to $200,000, inclusive of all budget periods and indirect costs. We ask that applicants request only what is needed to allow for maximizing support for as many recipients as possible. We expect larger awards to correspond with more distributed funding (e.g., multiple people’s salaries or multiple activities). The requested amount must be equal to or less than the funding that was guaranteed and remained unspent on the original project.

  • What is the indirect or Facilities and Administrative (F&A) cost rate?

    Indirect costs, also known as F&A or overhead costs, are limited to 15% for colleges/universities and hospital or health systems, 30% for other nonprofit organizations, and 0% for for-profit or government entities. These are fixed rate and are nonnegotiable. 

  • How many awards do you anticipate funding through this call?

    Our goal is to support as many early-to mid-career, antiracist, anticolonial health equity researchers as possible with the available funding. The exact number of grants depends on the size of the grants awarded, but we anticipate funding between 25 and 60 projects.
