Portfolio context — this listing covers more than this opportunity

This opportunity is funded under Assistance Listing 93.242 (“Mental Health Research Grants”), a broad federal program that made about 863 new awards per year over the last five fiscal years (median award $552k). Those figures describe that whole portfolio — not this specific solicitation, so we don't show them as if they were this opportunity's track record.

Applicant counts per solicitation are not published by any federal agency — no one can honestly sell you that number. NIH publishes success rates by institute and activity code — source.
