PACEs and the Social Sciences

PACEs occur in societal, cultural and household contexts. Social science research and theory provide insight into these contexts for PACEs and how they might be altered to prevent adversity and promote resilience. We encourage social scientists of various disciplines to share and review research, identify mechanisms, build theories, identify gaps, and build bridges to practice and policy.

 Two CDC grant proposal Requests.

Research Funding Opportunity

Research Grants for Preventing Violence and Violence-Related Injury (RO1)



On December 30, 2020, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) released RFA-CE-21-004, Research Grants for Preventing Violence and Violence-Related Injury. CDC intends to commit up to $1,050,000 in FY 2021 to fund up to three applications. CDC is soliciting investigator-initiated research that will help expand and advance the understanding about what works to prevent violence that impacts children and youth, collectively referred to as Adverse Childhood Experiences (ACEs).



Research will focus on preventing child abuse and neglect and at least one other form of violence affecting children and youth, including teen dating violence, sexual violence, youth violence, and exposure to adult intimate partner violence. Proposed effectiveness research will address one or more of the following research objectives:

  1. Strategies that improve the social or structural conditions that contribute to health inequities across population groups and are associated with child abuse and neglect or other forms of violence affecting children and youth.
  2. Strategies that enhance protective factors to reduce violence against children or within families.
  3. Strategies that incorporate a dual-generation approach for caregivers and their children that breaks the cycle of violence and adversity.

Violence is a significant public health problem in the United States. Exposure to violence in childhood and adolescence can increase risk for later violent experiences, which can have a cumulative and compounding impact on health and well-being across the lifespan. The CDC’s National Center for Injury Prevention and Control Division of Violence Prevention works to stop violence before it begins.

Grant Request #2



Research Funding Opportunity

Grants to Support New Investigators in Conducting Research Related to

Preventing Interpersonal Violence Impacting Children and Youth (K01)

On December 30, 2020, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) released RFA-CE-21-003, Grants to Support New Investigators in Conducting Research Related to Preventing Interpersonal Violence Impacting Children and Youth. The purpose of CDC’s National Center for Injury Prevention and Control (NCIPC) Mentored Research Scientist Development Award (K01) is to provide support for an intensive, mentored career development experience in conducting violence prevention research.



CDC’s NCIPC intends to commit up to $250,000 in FY2021 to support up to two awards. Applicants must propose a research project that addresses at least one of the interpersonal violence prevention research gaps in the NCIPC Research Priorities as they relate to violence impacting children or youth from birth through age 17. These research priorities include:

  • Child abuse and neglect
  • Youth violence
  • Intimate partner violence (teen dating violence)
  • Sexual violence
  • Cross-cutting violence prevention

Exposure to violence or other adverse childhood experiences can negatively affect health and development across the lifespan. CDC’s Division of Violence Prevention’s Strategic Vision includes “addressing factors that cut across multiple forms of violence” as a guiding principle. Investigators are encouraged to address multiple forms of violence impacting children or youth when possible. Applicants are expected to identify an experienced mentor who will supervise the proposed career development and research experience
