Research Support

Our Pilot Award program provides small grants for early-stage research on the workforce that supports people living with dementia. The next Request for Applications will be released in early 2025.

The Research Fellowship program provided funds to support mentored research through travel to meet with mentors, data purchases, and other support.

Grantwriting groups are small groups that provide an intensive, supportive peer group for preparing proposals to NIH or similar proposals to other funders.   [link to new page – see below]

The groups will run for about 4 months before the submission deadline. (e.g., for February deadlines, groups will start by mid-October)

Participants should expect to commit 6 hours of time per week. Two hours will be for synchronous group feedback sessions. Four hours will be for writing, which can be done in two 2-hour synchronous sessions or on your own time.
