Deadline: 31 August 2024
The American Psychological Foundation is inviting applications for its grant program to increase public awareness of the benefits of psychoanalytic principles and treatments, and the applicability of psychoanalytic thought to clinical, organizational, and social problems.
Through the annual grants, the Fund seeks to recognize and promote the contributions of psychoanalysis to psychology as a science and profession. It encourages and supports programs in education, research, and service that will advance the profession and keep the psychological community and the public informed of developments in psychoanalytic scholarship, research, and practice.
The Fund hopes to focus on populations that are in need of support, such as early career professionals, students from diverse backgrounds, and therapists working with underserved populations.
