The National Association of School Psychologists (NASP) Strategic Goal Grant supports small research projects addressing one or more of the association’s strategic goals. NASP allocates non-recurring funds for the program and intends to support one project annually. The program supports new initiatives rather than extensions of existing work or ongoing research, including projects from university faculty or school-based personnel.
Projects must have a clear timeline and defined expected outcomes, with research feasible within a one-year budget period. Review emphasizes potential impact on NASP’s strategic goals, appropriate methods, feasibility, and the researcher’s qualifications. Recipients report their results to NASP and agree to submit findings to a NASP publication outlet.
