Foundation Seeks Grant Proposals for Juvenile Probation Research Projects

The Annie E. Casey Foun­da­tion is request­ing pro­pos­als for two research projects that will inform efforts to trans­form juve­nile pro­ba­tion. One of the projects is a nation­al review of state and local juve­nile pro­ba­tion poli­cies; the oth­er is an analy­sis of state and local fund­ing of juve­nile jus­tice, with an empha­sis on the financ­ing of pro­ba­tion services.

The Foun­da­tion will award a $100,000 grant for each of the suc­cess­ful pro­pos­als. Depend­ing upon the pro­pos­als sub­mit­ted, Casey may select the same orga­ni­za­tion to con­duct both projects or encour­age two orga­ni­za­tions to coor­di­nate their efforts.

The select­ed orga­ni­za­tions will have the demon­strat­ed capac­i­ty and the rel­e­vant exper­tise and knowl­edge to car­ry out these projects. The Foun­da­tion also is seek­ing orga­ni­za­tions that have shown a com­mit­ment to racial equi­ty and inclu­sion and that have active­ly engaged affect­ed pop­u­la­tions in their work.
