Advanced Laboratories for Accelerating the Reach and Impact of Treatments for Youth and Adults with Mental Illness (ALACRITY) Research Centers

Funds interdisciplinary research centers that speed up how mental-health treatments and services reach real-world practice, in youth and adults.

ScheduledNational Institutes of HealthUnited States

A treatment that works in a trial does not automatically reach the clinic, and NIMH built this notice to close that gap directly rather than fund more basic research.

Advanced Laboratories for Accelerating the Reach and Impact of Treatments for Youth and Adults with Mental Illness โ€” ALACRITY โ€” supports interdisciplinary teams of mental health researchers running practice-based research centers. Tโ€ฆ

Interdisciplinary, practice-based mental-health research centers under NIMH's ALACRITY initiative, optimizing therapeutic and preventive interventions, developing patient-, provider- and system-level interventions for mental health care access and quality, and improving the durability of optimized interventions for people with or at risk of mental illness, including serious mental illness, in youth and adults.
