Active Living Research is pleased to announce the release
of our ALR 2009-RWJF New Connections Call for Proposals (CFP)



Applications due by 1pm PT on July 29, 2009

Released May 15, 2009, the Active Living Research 2009-RWJF New Connections Call for Proposals focuses on studies of policy and environmental strategies for increasing physical activity, decreasing sedentary behaviors and preventing obesity among children and adolescents. Target populations include children and adolescents ages 3 to 18 that are at greatest risk for obesity: African-American, Latino, Native American, Asian American and Pacific Islander children and children who live in under-resourced and/or lower-income communities.  This funding opportunity is for new investigators (defined as individuals who received their doctorate or terminal degree within the last seven years) from historically disadvantaged and underrepresented communities.
Two types of grants are available through this funding opportunity: Research and Publication Grants.

1.      Research grants (up to four research grants of up to $75,000 each for 12-18 months will be awarded in this category).  Research grants can be either:

a.      Small-scale studies to identify and evaluate environmental determinants or evaluate promising changes to physical activity environments or policies in a variety of settings;

OR

b.  Macro-level analyses of policies and environmental approaches that impact children's physical activity and sedentary behaviors.

2.      Publication grants to support scientific manuscripts relevant to Active Living Research's overall mission that will contribute to the applicant's scholarly productivity (up to three publication grants of up to $12,000 each for 12 months will be awarded in this category).


All proposals for both research grants and publication grants must be submitted online through the RWJF Grantmaking Online system by 1pm PT on Wednesday, July 29, 2009. To view the Call for Proposals, please go to http://www.activelivingresearch.org/alr/grantsearch/grantopportunities.
For detailed formatting instructions and to prepare and submit your proposal, please go to http://grantmaking.rwjf.org/papnci2.
