Youth Purpose Research Awards The Stanford Center on Adolescence is excited to open our 2009 Youth Purpose Awards Program. In our 2nd year (2008) we received over 40 applications for four awards. We will be granting up to four awards again this round. The awards are available to scholars in all disciplines. Because you are familiar with the Center, you may know of eligible doctoral students, postdocs, or early-career colleagues in related fields who would be interested in applying. We would greatly appreciate your help in spreading the word about this funding (up to $10,000) to study youth purpose. A flyer is attached; the text of the flyer in simplified format has also been pasted below. Additional information is on our web page: http://coaawards.stanford.edu William T. Grant Foundation The William T. Grant Foundation has a longstanding interest in supporting research that can inform policy and practice. Our particular focus is on policies and practices that affect youth ages 8 to 25 in the United States. In this area, there are significant gaps between research and policy, and between research and practice. Applicants should submit letters of inquiry by May 12, 2009. Selected applicants will be invited to submit full proposals, which will be due by October 6, 2009. Funding decisions will be made at the Board of Trustees meeting in June 2010, and awards will be made available shortly thereafter. More information is available at http://www.wtgrantfoundation.org/. Spencer Dissertation Fellowship: The Spencer Foundation would like to announce that we are accepting applications for the 2010 Spencer Dissertation Fellowship for Research Related to Education, and would like to ask for your help in bringing it to the attention of others. As you may know, approximately 30 Fellowships of $25,000 are awarded each year by the Spencer Foundation to support doctoral candidates in a variety of fields whose dissertations promise to contribute fresh perspectives to the history, theory, or practice of education. Please note that although the dissertation topic must concern education, graduate study may be in any academic discipline. In addition, although applicants must be candidates for a doctoral degree at a graduate school in the United States, they need not be citizens of the United States. Past applicants tell us they learned about this fellowship from people like you. Thus, we would appreciate it if you would forward this email to any qualified graduate student(s) you might know and/or to any office which might publicize the fellowship to likely candidates. Applications must be submitted electronically by Wednesday, October 21, 2009. Please visit our website http://www.spencer.org/programs/fellows/dissertation.htm for more information about the Fellowship as well as to apply online and find the full announcement here. Society for Research in Child Development, Millennium Scholars Program The Frances Degen Horowitz Millennium Scholars Program was developed as a vehicle to encourage and support undergraduates from underrepresented groups to pursue graduate work in child development and other related disciplines. To that end, the program provides educational and professional development for these undergraduate students, giving them a launching point for a career in the field of child development. Applications are sought for Scholars, Junior Mentors, and Senior Mentors.
