View the 2018 Institutional Challenge Grant Application Guidelines

The Institutional Challenge Grant encourages university-based research institutes, schools, and centers to build sustained research-practice partnerships with public agencies or nonprofit organizations in order to reduce inequality in youth outcomes. To do so, research institutions will need to shift their policies and practices to value collaborative research. They will also need to build the capacity of researchers to produce relevant work and the capacity of agency and nonprofit partners to use research. The online application will open on June 15, and all applications must be received by September 7, 2018, 3:00 PM EST.
