The Center for Retirement Research sponsors the annual Steven H. Sandell Grant Program for scholars in the field of retirement or disability research and policy. The program is funded by the U.S. Social Security Administration (SSA) to provide opportunities for junior or non-tenured scholars (within seven years of receiving their Ph.D.) from all academic disciplines to pursue cutting-edge projects on retirement or disability issues. Individuals from historically underserved or underrepresented communities are encouraged to apply.
Applicants must demonstrate that their proposal focuses on at least one of SSA’s research focal areas: * Understanding service needs and improving service delivery; * Studying causes and inequities of overpayment and underpayment; * Addressing barriers to disability and SSI programs participation and processes; * Understanding and improving communication; * Identifying disparities by race, ethnicity, and sex; * Examining economic security of program applicants and beneficiaries; and * Addressing employment barriers for people with disabilities. There are 2 awards available. To find out more, visit the grant program's web site. | |
