Join Evidence for Action (E4A), a national program of the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation (RWJF), to discuss the Indigenous-Led Solutions to Advance Health Equity and Wellbeing Call for Proposals (CFP). Under this CFP, we will fund community-prioritized investigation into strategies for advancing Indigenous health equity and wellbeing in what is now known as the US and its territories.
In addition to providing a brief introduction to the CFP, speakers will:
- Discuss the impetus behind the focus on Indigenous health and wellbeing and the process by which the CFP was developed;
- Acquaint participants with the review process and who will serve as reviewers for brief and full proposals;
- Share information about eligibility, project fit, anticipated funding levels, and grantee expectations;
- Demonstrate how to navigate the online proposal submission platform, the RWJF Application & Review System;
- Inform participants about the a Technical Assistance program they may be invited to participate in if not funded under this CFP; and
- Answer participant questions.
