Commission on Ethnic Minority Recruitment, Retention and Training Grants

The APA Public Interest Directorate's Executive Office has been allocated $75,000 to be used in support of the association-wide implementation of the CEMRRAT Plan. Approximately $63,000 of these funds are used to support small grants through the CEMRRAT Implementation Grants Fund, which is subdivided into seven priority areas. It is anticipated that approximately two to four proposals will be funded under each of the seven priority areas:

• Training: Professional Development/Linguistic Minorities.

• Current Initiative: Racial/Ethnic Minority Health Disparities.

• Faculty Development.

• Students: Undergraduate/Graduate Innovation.

• Students: STEM.

• Students: Indigenous Approaches.

• Monitoring & Assessment of Ethnic Minority Representation and Participation in Psychology.

Priority areas correspond to the goals and objectives outlined in the CEMRRAT Plan.
