Description:

This funding opportunity seeks research that strengthens the evidence base on barriers and enablers to early intervention and MBC uptake and develops actionable guidance for Canadian Forces Health Services (CFHS) decision-making, with a particular focus on the utility of agentic AI systems, e.g., conversational and reliability assurance AI agents. These digital support tools (including conversational interfaces) may be explored as an intervention to support early engagement and navigation to appropriate resources; provided safety, ethics, and privacy are addressed explicitly.
