PCORI's Online System will open on Jan. 16, 2024, for the submission of Letters of Intent (LOI) for three PCORI Engagement Award Program funding announcements under the April 2024 Cycle. None of these programs are research funding opportunities.

Engagement Award: Capacity Building. Funds projects that build communities prepared to participate in patient-centered CER. 

Engagement Award: Dissemination Initiative. Aims to support projects that help organizations and communities actively communicate pertinent PCORI-funded research findings to their specific audiences, including patients, clinicians, communities and others, in ways that will command their attention and interest and encourage use of this information in their healthcare decision making.

Engagement Award: Stakeholder Convening Support. Provides support to organizations and communities to hold multi-stakeholder convenings, meetings and conferences that include a combination of patients, caregivers, researchers, clinicians, purchasers, payers, health system leaders and/or other stakeholders.
