Applications being accepted for community health improvement grants

The Case Western Reserve University School of Medicine is accepting applications from members of the campus community for small grants of $2,500 to $10,000 to address community health issues through university-community partnerships. Up to three awards are expected, subject to the number and quality of applications.

To receive funding, applications must reflect a partnership between a community organization and a CWRU faculty member. Partnerships are intended to leverage the expertise of members of the community in improving health and promoting wellness.

Applications are encouraged from all students and faculty members. Student applications, however, must be submitted by a faculty member who is active in the Clinical & Translational Science Collaborative. For all applications, the principal investigator must be a School of Medicine faculty member. Interested investigators from other institutions should partner with a School of Medicine faculty member for the submission.

Applications are due by 11:59 p.m. on Dec. 3.
