APA Grants for Internship Programs
Request for Proposals
The American Psychological Association (APA) has allocated up to $3 million over a period of three years for seed funding under a grant application process to increase the number of APA-accredited internship programs and positions. The dual purposes are to expand the number of accredited internship positions and to promote quality training for professional practice. This grant program is one component of multifaceted efforts across the profession and APA to address the significant imbalance in supply and demand for accredited internships. These grants will be limited to applicant internship programs operated by nonprofit entities.
For the initial round of funding, applications must be received by November 30, 2012 for award in December 2012. The APA Board of Educational Affairs (BEA) Internship Grants Review Group will be reviewing applications in early December 2012 and applicants will be contacted once the review process has concluded. Subsequent funding cycles will occur every 6 months for the next 2.5 years.
To apply please complete the application found at: http://apps.apa.org/internship
