Abstract

The Engaged Scholarship Funding Program solicits proposals in the fall. The intent of this funding program is to assist College of Human Sciences and Human Sciences Extension and Outreach faculty and staff to procure funding for research projects that focus on engagement, translate research into practice, and involve and benefit individuals, families, and communities in Iowa. Faculty and staff develop and lead projects in Iowa counties targeted to individuals, families, and communities, and Iowa’s counties and people are exposed to and incorporated into projects that include collaboration with researchers and scholars at Iowa State University.
