The William T. Grant Foundation is an American non-profit foundation that funds research in the social sciences, with a particular focus on reducing inequality in youth outcomes and improving the use of research evidence in public policy and practice settings.[1][2] It also funds career development and mentoring plans for post-doctoral researchers in a wide variety of disciplines through its William T. Grant Scholars Program. The Foundation's Institutional Challenge Grant encourages universities to support long-term research-practice partnerships with youth-serving nonprofit organizations, and its Youth Service Improvement Grants provide funding for nonprofit organizations to strengthen the quality existing programs for young people in New York City.[3]
Currently, the Foundation funds research that increases our understanding of: (1) the programs, policies, and practices that reduce inequality in youth outcomes, and (2) improving the use of research evidence in decisions that affect young people.
