Upcoming 2025 Call for Proposals: Community-Led Systems Research to Address Systemic Racism

The Robert Wood Johnson Foundation anticipates the release of a new research funding opportunity through the Systems for Action research program in mid-January 2025.

This year’s funding opportunity will provide research funding for community-led pilot-test studies that test the feasibility of new interventions designed to dismantle and disrupt forms of systemic racism through the alignment of medical, social, and public health systems. Pilot studies must be led by a community-based nonprofit, government agency, or tribal organization that serves communities affected by systemic racism, working in partnership with an experienced research team. 

Awards of up to $200,000 each are anticipated to fund pilot-test studies that con be completed over a 12-month period. The anticipated deadline for proposal submission is early June 2025.
