Applications for Research Focused on Immigrant Children Deadline: November 1, 2007 The Foundation for Child Development provides fellowship support through its Changing Faces of America's Children - Young Scholars Program for investigators to conduct research that aims to identify and understand the challenges faced by immigrant families and their children in the United States. The goals of this competitive award program are to 1) stimulate both basic and policy-relevant research about the early education, health, and well-being of children living in immigrant families from birth to age ten, particularly those who are living in low- income families; and 2) to support young investigators from the behavioral and social sciences or in an allied professional field (e.g., public policy, public health, education, social work, nursing, medicine) who are untenured but in tenure-track positions or who have received tenure in the last four years from a college or university in the United States. No applications from full professors will be accepted. Eligible researchers will have earned their doctoral degrees within the last fifteen years and be full-time faculty members of a college or university in the United States. Applicants must be U.S. citizens, legal permanent residents, or those who have employment authorization from the Bureau of Citizenship and Immigration Services for the duration of the award. Three to four fellowships of up to $150,000 each for use over one to three years (maximum) will be awarded competitively. Visit the foundation's Web site for complete program information.
