Session: Social Work NIH Grant Directory: A Tool to Increase Federal Research Funding (Society for Social Work and Research 15th Annual Conference: Emerging Horizons for Social Work Research)

This session introduces the recently updated Social Work NIH Grant Directory, launched in 2004 by IASWR. This web-based tool lists NIH grants awarded to social work researchers between 1993 and the present time. A range of search criteria assists users in locating information to enhance research initiatives. The Directory facilitates networking and mentorship among researchers across programs and along specific subject areas. It highlights NIH agencies with the largest funding potential and aims at increasing SW funding from NIH.
