Grant To Build Research Capacity in the Area of Behavioral 
Disorders and Youth Violence Notice of Availability of Funds

A. Purpose

    The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) announces the 
availability of fiscal year (FY) 2001 funds for a grant program to 
build research capacity in the area of behavioral disorders and youth 
violence. This program addresses the ``Healthy People 2010'' focus area 
of Violence and Abuse Prevention. The purpose of the program is to 
build capacity for further research that will discover new approaches 
to intervene and prevent complex behavior problems in children and 
youth resulting from genetic and environmental conditions in early 
childhood that significantly impact the problem of youth violence.

B. Eligible Applicants

    Assistance will be provided only to the Kennedy Krieger Institute. 
No other applications are solicited.
    Eligibility is limited only to the Kennedy Krieger Institute 
because fiscal year 2001 Federal Appropriations specifically directs 
CDC to award this non-profit institute funds to develop new approaches 
to help prevent youth violence and behavioral problems.

C. Availability of Funds

    Approximately $810,288 is available in FY 2001 to fund this award. 
It is expected that the award will begin on or about September 1, 2001, 
and will be made for 12-month budget period within a project period of 
one year. Funding estimates may change.
