Transformation of Mental Health Care Program
This grant provides funding to academic researchers in the U.S. to develop innovative strategies for improving access to quality mental health care for children and adolescents, especially those from under-resourced or minoritized backgrounds.
The Transformation of Mental Health Care Program by the Klingenstein Third Generation Foundation (KTGF) offers a two-year grant to academic researchers in the U.S. aiming to improve access to quality mental health care for children and adolescents, particularly those from under-resourced or minoritized backgrounds. The program provides up to $100,000 per year for a total of $200,000, focusing on projects that demonstrate innovative approaches to accessible mental health care, such as digital tools, non-traditional care settings, or utilizing non-professional personnel to expand service capacity. Projects should show a clear path to scalability and include rigorous plans for evaluating outcomes. Eligible applicants include academic researchers who are well-established or working with senior collaborators and have preliminary data supporting the proposed project. KTGF encourages projects involving care in primary, school, or community settings rather than expanding services within existing mental health organizations. Proposals should include a comprehensive research plan, a detailed budget (indirect costs capped at 10%), and letters of institutional support.
