Funder: Johns Hopkins University
Due Dates: Rolling (proposals)

Summary: Supports Johns Hopkins faculty responding to Baltimore City government requests for work that advances health and health equity.
Key Information: Every proposal needs a Baltimore City or quasi-city collaborator and a named key project partner.
The Johns Hopkins Urban Health Institute supports Johns Hopkins University faculty working directly with Baltimore City government to advance health and health equity. Proposals must respond to a city government request for specific assistance on a significant project intended to improve the health of Baltimore.
The work can take several forms, including helping the city draft a grant application, evaluating a city initiative, conducting short-term research to answer a city question, or preparing a policy review and recommendations for an agency. The program connects faculty expertise with practical needs identified by city government rather than prescribing a single research topic.
