DAISY to fund health equity grants

The DAISY Foundation announced a call for proposals for two types of funding opportunities. The first, the DAISY Health Equity Grants, aim to support the delivery of patient- and family-centered care to disadvantaged populations by funding nursing research and evidence-based practice (EBP) projects designed to address social determinants of health and improve health outcomes. The deadline to submit an application is Jan. 25. The second opportunity, the J. Patrick Barnes Grants for Nursing Research and EBP, offers funds for work addressing treatment for cancer or auto-immune diseases. The deadline to submit a letter of intent is Feb. 24. Both funding opportunities are open to nurses and nurse-led teams.
