Resident Funds Program
2009 CALL FOR PROPOSALS
Applications are due by 4:00 pm CDT, July 31, 2008
Only online submissions will be accepted
The
Community Access to Child Health (CATCH) Resident Funds program supports pediatric
residents in the planning of community-based child health initiatives. Grants
of up to $3,000 are awarded twice each year on a competitive basis for pediatric
residents to address the needs of children in their communities. CATCH Resident
Funds grant projects must include planning activities and also may include some
implementation activities. Resident grants are available twice a year—May
to July, during the CATCH
Planning Funds grant cycle, and November to January, during the CATCH
Implementation Funds grant cycle.
Contact your Chapter CATCH Facilitator and your District Resident CATCH Liaison to discuss your ideas for a CATCH grant project and to obtain assistance with proposal development.
CATCH staff also is available to assist you. Contact your CATCH Program Coordinator at catch@aap.org.
CATCH would like to show you how easy it is to get assistance with proposal development. Please send a brief paragraph describing the idea for your project to catch@aap.org, and you will receive help from your Chapter CATCH Facilitator, Resident CATCH Liaison and/or CATCH staff. Please send this information no later than July 15, 2008.
The 2009 Cycle 1
CATCH Resident Funds program is administered by the AAP CATCH Program and is supported
by Wyeth and the AAP Friends of
Children Fund.
