Spencer Foundation announces Research-Practice Partnerships Program call

The Spencer Foundation is accepting proposals to support Research-Practice Partnerships (RPPs), including but not limited to place-based research alliances, design-based research teams, and networked improvement communities. We seek to provide intermediate-term stability to existing RPPs by supporting a range of activities vital to their operation. Our hope is that our support will assist grantees in deepening and enhancing ongoing research efforts, strengthening leadership, building infrastructure and data archives, broadening outreach, and building a coherent and focused longer-term research agenda.

Through this program, we will provide grants of up to $400,000 for up to three years to support each funded partnership. Proposals are due at 4 p.m. CDT on June 1.

More information can be found on the Spencer Foundation RPP website. Additionally, the Spencer Foundation will be holding an information session for this program at 11 a.m. CDT on April 17. Register online.
