Request for Proposals: Recovery-Oriented Mental Health Research Grants in Texas

The Hogg Foundation for Mental Health invites eligible higher education institutions in Texas to respond to this request for proposals (RFP) to fund mental health recovery-oriented research projects. The goal of this initiative is twofold: 1) to support research that furthers knowledge of and evidence for recovery-oriented practices, including, but not limited to, research on person-centered care, innovative mental health supports, developing and evaluating recovery outcome measures, and peer specialist workforce issues; and 2) to increase the pool of Texas-based higher education faculty engaged in quality mental health research.

Depending on the quality of proposals received, the foundation plans to award grants up to $22,000 to eligible higher education institutions. This total award amount includes 10% for overhead expenses.

Please read the RFP carefully before submitting your proposal. Any additional information about the RFP will be posted on the foundation’s website at www.hogg.utexas.edu. It is the applicant’s responsibility to refer to the website for the most current information.
