Indiana Clinical & Translational Sciences Institute (CTSI) Community Health Partnerships (CHeP) is soliciting proposals for the development of community-university partnerships to improve health, examine social determinants of health (SDoH), or enhance health equity, to result in future collaborative research proposals.
Donor Name: Indiana Clinical & Translational Sciences Institute (CTSI)
State: Indiana
County: All Counties
Type of Grant: Grant
Deadline (mm/dd/yyyy): 08/01/2022
Grant Size: up to $5,000
Details:
The award can be used to establish new partnerships or to strengthen/expand existing community university partnerships to solve critical health problems affecting Indiana residents. This award will not fund research pilot projects; instead, it will fund activities to help develop partnerships between organizations that have potential to later engage in joint research projects to address health, health equity, or SDoH. The expected outcome of this award is the development of a future research proposal for opportunities such as the Community Health Partnerships Trailblazer Award (Trailblazer Award). Examples of partnership development activities they are interested in funding include meetings, conferences, travel expenses, and quality improvement assessments.
Funding Information
Awards will be up to $5,000 to support partnership growth and collaborative grant proposal development.
They are interested in funding partnership development through conferences, travel, collaborative meetings, and other activities that will culminate in a community-engaged collaborative research proposal application to the Trailblazer Award (or other funding mechanism).
Application Requirements
Applicants must describe the strategies they will use to build or strengthen a partnership and the short-term goals of the partnership. The goals should include plans for co-designing collaborative initiatives and grant applications to address health, health equity or SDoH. A few examples of SDoH include economic stability, access to care and resources, exposure to trauma, and immigration status. There must be at least one university-based partner and one community-based partner. All partners must currently be employed in Indiana-based institutions or organizations.
