Cooperative Agreement to a USA public or private nonprofit entity, government agency, tribe, or health facility to establish a center to address the risk and benefits of social media use for children and youth. Applicants are advised that required registrations may take up to six weeks to complete.

Center of Excellence on Social Media and Mental Wellbeing Cooperative Agreement

The Social Media and Mental Wellbeing CoE aims to:

Increase awareness, education, and knowledge around the risk and benefits of social media use for children and youth to promote social-emotional wellbeing and prevent harm.
Ensure and expand the availability and delivery of publicly available, free of charge training, technical assistance, and consultation for individuals who work with children and youth impacted by social media and negative mental health outcomes.
Synthesize and disseminate to youth and adults best practices and research on appropriate social media use, communication, guidance, and other resources.

The Center of Excellence on Social Media and Mental Wellbeing focuses on three priorities:

Education & Resources around the risks and benefits of social media use for children and youth.
Culturally and linguistically appropriate technical assistance focusing on active
learning, consultation, and support on how to best assist children and youth in
thoughtfully balancing ways to interface with the digital world, particularly social media
and online social engagement, in a way that enhances their mental health while
reducing harm.
Best Practice and Research Updates. This priority will synthesize best practices and up-to-date literature in the field and communicate and disseminate them to all relevant stakeholders.

If you have already completed registrations for SAM and Grants.gov, you need to ensure that your accounts are still active, and then register in eRA Commons. You must register in eRA Commons and receive a Commons Username in order to have access to electronic submission, receive notifications on the status of your application, and retrieve grant information.

By the deadline, you must have successfully completed the following to submit an application:

- The Project Director MUST have an active eRA Commons account (with the PI role) affiliated with the organization in eRA Commons.

Process:
- SAMHSA requires that applications be submitted electronically through Grants.gov.
