Group Foundation for Advancing Mental Health Seeks Applications for Group Therapy Research Projects
mke...@westga.edu
The Group Foundation for Advancing Mental Health is dedicated to changing lives through therapeutic group work by advancing the most effective and innovative approaches to group therapy education, training, research, and community outreach. To that end, the foundation is seeking research-focused applications in support of group psychotherapy research focused on one of five clinical populations: children, the elderly, the chronically mentally ill, substance abusers, and significantly ill patients with marked functional impairment.
Grants of up to $15,000 will be awarded based on the importance of the research to the field, the seniority of the investigators, and the number of research applications received.
Funding can be used to support the basic costs of research (e.g., supplies, research equipment, photocopying, postage, computer services, statistical consultation and research assistant salaries); investigator salaries and travel expenses will not be funded. (Equipment purchased for use during a research project must be donated to an institution at the completion of the project.)
