NCMHD Building Research Infrastructure and Capacity (P20): Purpose.

The BRIC Program was previously known as the NCMHD Research Infrastructure in Minority Institutions (RIMI) program. Mechanism of Support. This FOA will utilize the P20 grant mechanism. Funds Available and Anticipated Number of Awards. The total amount to be awarded under this funding opportunity is approximately $5 million (total costs) per year for an estimated four to five new and renewal applications.
