Opportunity Information: Apply for PA 17 098
The Administrative Supplements for Research on Sexual and Gender Minority (SGM) Populations (Admin Supp), Funding Opportunity Number PA-17-098, is a National Institutes of Health (NIH) funding opportunity that provides administrative supplement awards to add or expand Sexual and Gender Minority (SGM) health-related aims within already funded, active NIH research projects. Rather than supporting entirely new stand-alone studies, this mechanism is designed to build on existing grants by extending their scope in a way that meaningfully advances knowledge about SGM health. The program is led by the NIH Office of the Director and reflects a trans-NIH effort, meaning multiple NIH Institutes, Centers, and Offices coordinate to stimulate research activity in an area NIH identifies as underrepresented but increasingly important.
A central purpose of this opportunity is to accelerate scientific progress on the health needs of SGM populations. In the announcement, NIH uses a broad definition of SGM populations, explicitly including (but not limited to) lesbian, gay, bisexual, and transgender people, as well as individuals with differences or disorders of sexual development, sometimes described as intersex or by specific clinical diagnoses. By encouraging researchers to incorporate SGM-focused questions, measures, or sub-studies into projects that are already underway, NIH aims to rapidly increase the evidence base, improve understanding of health disparities, and strengthen the pipeline of rigorous, NIH-supported work that directly addresses SGM populations.
The supplement emphasizes a wide range of research interests, leaving room for diverse scientific approaches as long as they are well-justified and aligned with the parent project. The cited topics include studies of increased disease risk, mental health, behavioral and social health, and approaches connected to personalized medicine. The opportunity also highlights access to care, which can include barriers, utilization patterns, quality of care, and structural or systems-level factors that influence whether SGM individuals receive timely and appropriate services. Additional focus areas include reproductive and sexual development, as well as neurological and cognitive development and resilience, reflecting NIH interest not only in risk and disease burden but also in protective factors, adaptation, and strengths that may shape health outcomes across the lifespan.
From an administrative standpoint, the opportunity is categorized as discretionary funding and uses the grant funding instrument type, with an activity category spanning education, health, income security, and social services. It is associated with multiple CFDA numbers (now commonly referred to under Assistance Listings), indicating participation across numerous NIH components and program areas. The sponsoring agency is the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (HHS), National Institutes of Health. The posting lists a creation date of December 23, 2016, and an original closing date of March 1, 2017, situating it as a specific supplement cycle tied to that period.
In terms of scale, the opportunity lists an award ceiling of $100,000 and an expected number of awards of 10. These figures suggest relatively targeted funding intended to support discrete expansions of scope, such as adding SGM-relevant recruitment, measures, analyses, or pilot components that can be completed within the administrative supplement framework. Because the mechanism is an administrative supplement, the practical expectation is that the proposed work remains scientifically and operationally connected to the parent award, is feasible within the remaining project period, and clearly explains how the added SGM focus will produce meaningful insights beyond what the parent project would otherwise deliver.
Eligibility is broad and includes many types of domestic organizations and governmental entities. Eligible applicants listed in the notice include state, county, and city or township governments; special district governments; independent school districts; public and state-controlled institutions of higher education; private institutions of higher education; federally recognized Native American tribal governments and other tribal organizations; public housing authorities and Indian housing authorities; nonprofits with and without 501(c)(3) status (excluding higher education institutions in those nonprofit categories); for-profit organizations other than small businesses; small businesses; and other applicants as described in the full opportunity text. In practice, because these are administrative supplements, the applicant is typically the organization that already holds the active NIH award that will be supplemented, with the supplement request submitted to add the SGM-related component to that existing project.
Overall, this opportunity is best understood as an NIH-wide push to quickly strengthen and broaden the research base on SGM health by leveraging ongoing NIH-funded studies. Its defining features are the administrative supplement mechanism (expanding existing work rather than launching brand-new projects), a broad and inclusive definition of SGM populations, and a wide menu of priority research areas ranging from disease risk and mental health to access to care, development, personalized medicine, and resilience.Apply for PA 17 098
