The Coordinating Committee on Women''s Health represents U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) agencies and offices throughout the Department. It has identified the prevention and intervention of domestic/intimate partner violence (IPV) as a priority focus for its cross-federal work. There is a critical need for guidelines for health practitioners to effectively screen patients for IPV and provide appropriate counseling. At the request of Dr. Howard Koh, HHS convened a research symposium at the National Institutes of Health (NIH) in December 2013 with the purpose of identifying gaps in research in screening and counseling for IPV in primary health care settings and to shape priorities in the national research agenda moving forward. Ultimately, the Department’s goal is to promote effective strategies for health care practitioners for screening and counseling.

The National Institute on Aging (NIA) is soliciting applications using the National Institutes of Health R01 and R21 award mechanisms for translational research that move evidence-based research findings toward the development of new interventions, programs, policies, practices, and tools that can be used by community-based organizations to help elderly individuals remain healthy and independent, and living in their own homes and communities. The goal of this initiative is to support translational research involving collaborations between academic research centers and community-based organizations with expertise serving the elderly, specifically encouraging connections with Area Agencies on Aging, organizations affiliated with the Corporation for National and Community Service, and other entities that will enhance our understanding of practical tools, techniques, programs and policies that communities across the nation can use to more effectively respond to needs of their aging populations.
