2013 Interdivisional Grant Program

The Committee on Division/APA Relations has released its Call for Proposals for the 2013 Interdivisional Grant Program. CODAPAR seeks proposals for collaborative projects sponsored by two or more APA divisions.  The purpose of the program is to support joint activities that enhance the work, interests, or goals of two or more divisions. Examples include, but are not limited to:

·         furthering APA’s goals of working to advance psychology as a science, a profession, and a means of promoting human welfare;

·         projects that promote collaboration between the science and practice of psychology;

·         fostering the recruitment of ethnic minorities into psychology, APA or division membership, or APA governance; and

·         activities that focus on a currently unaddressed topic or area in psychology.

 

Up to $25,000 will be awarded by CODAPAR to support projects in 2013 (typical projects are funded under $5,000). Proposals must meet the following requirements to be considered by CODAPAR:

·         Projects must be sponsored by at least two divisions.  Priority will be given to projects that demonstrate significant collaboration between the sponsoring divisions;

·         The projects may not duplicate an activity currently being undertaken by another APA office or group; and

·         The project must be completed within 12 months of receipt of funding. If projects will extend beyond 12 months, proposals must indicate which deliverable tasks will be funded by the grant in the initial 12 months of funding. Failure to complete the funded deliverable tasks within 12 months may render participating divisions ineligible for future IGP requests.

 

The attached Call provides a template for submission and further information. The deadline for applying for the 2013 IGP is September 14, 2012. If you have questions, please contact CODAPAR Staff Liaison Chad Rummel (crummel@apa.org) or your division’s CODAPAR Representative, which can be found at http://www.apa.org/about/governance/bdcmte/division-relations.aspx.

 

Thanks,

Chad
