W.T. Grant Research Awards

William T. Grant Foundation

The foundation funds research that increases understanding in one of two focus areas:

  • programs, policies, and practices that reduce inequality in youth outcomes, and
  • strategies to improve the use of research evidence in ways that benefit youth.

Stronger theory and empirical evidence in these two areas is desired.

Research grants about reducing inequality typically range between $100,000 and $600,000 and cover two to three years of support. Research grants about improving the use of research initiative will range between $100,000 and $1,000,000 and cover two to four years of support. This shift to a million dollar ceiling reflects the foundation's renewed commitment to this focus area and its interest in funding bold, large-scale studies to significantly advance the field. Projects involving secondary data analysis are at the lower end of the budget range, whereas projects involving new data collection and sample recruitment can be at the higher end. 

Deadline: August 1, 2018
