AHRQ has also announced that it will no longer be co-sponsoring the R01, R03, and R21 program announcements, "Understanding and Promoting Health Literacy" (PAR-10-133, PAR-10-134, and PAR-10-135).  This does not affect participation by Institutes of the NIH, which will still be funding applications to these program announcements.

Health literacy applications that respond to AHRQ program announcements can still be submitted. These include:

  *   Understanding User Needs and Context to Inform Consumer Health Information Technology (IT) Design (R01) - PA-11-199 (http://grants.nih.gov/grants/guide/pa-files/PA-11-199.html<http://capwiz.com/aacom/utr/1/BSTQQZXHIJ/EADKQZXHNU/7746265891>)
  *   AHRQ Health Services Research Projects (R01) - PA-09-070 (http://grants.nih.gov/grants/guide/pa-files/PA-09-070.html<http://capwiz.com/aacom/utr/1/BSTQQZXHIJ/MPWMQZXHNV/7746265891>) - NOTE: total budget limited to $250,000 per year in total costs
