*Call For Proposals for AY22-23

Grant Period (July 1, 2022 to June 30, 2023)

The College of Health and Human Services invites full-time faculty and staff of former academic units of the School of Family and Consumer Sciences (Fashion Merchandising and Design, Hospitality and Tourism, Human Services and Community Leadership, Nutrition & Dietetics, and Career & Technical Education) to apply for an AY 2022-2023 Winkleblack Family Fund (WFF) grant for charitable, scientific, literary or educational purposes that are consistent with the University’s academic mission, instructional commitments, and financial capabilities.

Funding Priorities: (1) student recruitment or programming for students, (2) faculty development, and (3) student development. Faculty and staff may apply for more than one grant during the FY 23 (AY 22-23) funding cycle. A review committee consisting of faculty representation from each of the former FCS academic units will evaluate applications and submit funding recommendations to the CHHS Dean no later than September 23, 2022. The CHHS Dean’s Office will inform grant recipients of their award on or by Friday, September 30th.

Please make certain that you discuss your ideas with your Department Chair to avoid other faculty from your Department submitting funding proposals for duplicate items or projects. Your application may not be considered for funding this year if you received funding last year and did not submit a final report or have received funding in the past but not spent a substantial amount of it without explanation. 

Faculty/staff applicants: You will need to submit 1) The cover sheet form (see below) and 2) a 1-2 page narrative of your project IF you have additional information to add (e.g., regarding rationale or budget). . You do not need references or other supporting documents; the committee or Dean’s office will request as needed. Once you complete the form, save it and upload it into the machform (link below). SEE COVER SHEET (MAIN APPLICATION FORM), MACHFORM, and SUMMARY/INSTRUCTIONS BELOW.
