Project Description

The Gulf Research Program (GRP) is developing new programming around health and community resilience that prioritizes the needs and challenges of at-risk communities who are disproportionately impacted by disasters. This funding opportunity will support efforts that reduce the burden of disaster-related mental health (DRMH) with a focus on the mental health consequences of acute disasters. Specifically, the outcomes of this opportunity will fill knowledge gaps on culturally appropriate interventions that address (e.g., treat, reduce, prevent) adverse DRMH for at-risk communities that are disproportionately affected by acute disasters.
