APA is supporting an initiative by Research! America and the National Science Policy Network to offer grants to scientists to increase engagement between scientists and candidates in the upcoming midterm elections. The Bipartisan Candidate Engagement Initiative supports science graduate students and trainees in working to elevate the importance of scientific research, innovation, and public health—including mental health—in the national conversation among candidates. Science policy groups managed by graduate students and postdocs are eligible to apply; awards range from $1,000 to $3,000, with the potential for up to $5,000 for high-impact proposals. Proposals are due by August 10. Learn more and apply.
