Title Science and Technology Centers: Integrative Partnerships Agencies National Science Foundation (NSF) Description The Science and Technology Centers (STC): Integrative Partnerships program supports innovative, potentially transformative, complex research and education projects that require large-scale, long-term awards. STCs conduct world-class research through partnerships among academic institutions, national laboratories, industrial organizations, and/or other public/private entities, and via international collaborations, as appropriate. They provide a means to undertake significant investigations at the interfaces of disciplines and/or fresh approaches within disciplines. STCs may involve any areas of science and engineering that NSF supports. STC investments support the NSF vision of advancing discovery, innovation and education beyond the frontiers of current knowledge, and empowering future generations in science and engineering. Centers provide a rich environment for encouraging future scientists, engineers, and educators to take risks in pursuing discoveries and new knowledge. STCs foster excellence in education by integrating education and research, and by creating bonds between learning and inquiry so that discovery and creativity fully support the learning process. NSF expects STCs to demonstrate leadership in the involvement of groups traditionally underrepresented in science and engineering at all levels (faculty, students, and postdoctoral researchers) within the Center. Centers use either proven or innovative mechanisms to address issues such as recruitment, retention and mentorship of participants from underrepresented groups. Centers must undertake activities that facilitate knowledge transfer, i.e., the exchange of scientific and technical information with the objective of disseminating and utilizing knowledge broadly in multiple sectors. Examples of knowledge transfer include technology transfer with the intention of supporting innovation, providing key information to public policy makers, or dissemination of knowledge from one field of science to another. More Information http://www.nsf.gov/pubs/2011/nsf11522/nsf11522.htm?WT.mc_id=USNSF_25&WT.mc_ev=click Submission Limits A single organization may submit a maximum of three preliminary proposals as the lead institution. Full proposals are to be submitted only when invited by NSF. There is no limit to participation as a partner institution. The STC program will not provide support for more than one proposed Center from any one lead institution in this competition. Cost Sharing: The PAPPG has been revised to implement the National Science Board's recommendations regarding cost sharing. Inclusion of voluntary committed cost sharing is prohibited.

Title Challenge America Fast-Track Agencies National Foundation for the Arts and the Humanities (NFAH) Description The Challenge America Fast-Track category offers support primarily to small and mid-sized organizations for projects that extend the reach of the arts to underserved populations - those whose opportunities to experience the arts are limited by geography, ethnicity, economics, or disability. Age alone (e.g., youth, seniors) does not qualify a group as underserved; at least one of the underserved characteristics noted here also must be present. This category, as an essential component of the Arts Endowment's goal of providing wide access to artistic excellence, supports local projects that can have significant effects within communities. Grants are available for professional arts programming and for projects that emphasize the potential of the arts in community development. Partnerships can be valuable to the success of these projects. While not required, applicants are encouraged to consider partnerships among organizations, both in and outside of the arts, as appropriate to their project. These Fast-Track grants extend the reach of the arts to underserved populations that have limited access to the arts due to geography, ethnicity, economics, or disability. The involvement of professionally trained, experienced artists, and arts professionals is essential. The grants are limited to the specific types of projects outlined below. The Challenge America Fast-Track category supports focused, distinct projects that take place over limited periods of time and involve limited geographic areas. Such projects generally are smaller in scale and shorter in duration than those in the Access to Artistic Excellence or Learning in the Arts for Children and Youth categories. Each applicant must present a simple, straightforward project that reflects only one of the project types below. Fast-Track grants are available only for: 1. An arts event or events that will feature one or more guest artists. The project (such as a festival, exhibit, recital, reading, performance, screening, broadcast, lecture) must include the participation of guest artist(s). Artistic staff and resident artists of an applicant organization do not qualify as guest artists. In addition to artists' fees, the project may include public relations, professional documentation, and program enhancements that are integral to the event. Examples of program enhancements include interpretive material, transportation, program accommodations (e.g., sign language interpretation, audio description), catalogues, brochures, or publications. Other enhancements such as specific lecture-demonstrations, pre- or post-event talks, or workshops relevant to the proposed arts event also are eligible. Note: Projects that involve curriculum-based arts instruction are not eligible (applicants seeking funds for such projects should see the Learning in the Arts category). 2. The creation of professionally directed public art projects such as murals, sculptures, or environmental art that are developed through community engagement. 3. Civic design activities that involve the renovation, restoration, or adaptive reuse of structures to be used as cultural facilities. Projects may include architectural studies, design competitions, charettes (design workshops), or feasibility plans. Funding is not available for actual renovation or construction costs. 4. The unified promotion of community-wide arts activities and resources to enhance cultural tourism or activities in cultural districts. Unified promotion is defined as the professional assessment, design, and/or distribution of public relations tools (calendars, websites, brochures, rack cards, signage, etc.) designed to benefit several local organizations. Note: Promotional projects for a single organization are not eligible. More Information http://www.grants.gov/search/search.do?mode=VIEW&oppId=64513 Submission Limits 1. An Organization may submit only one application through one of the following FY 2011 Grants for Arts Projects categories: Access to Artistic Excellence, Challenge America Fast-Track, and Learning in the Arts for Children and Youth. 2. Starting with grants that are awarded in FY 2011 (that result from applications received under this year's May 27, 2010, deadline), an organization that receives Challenge America Fast-Track grants for three years in a row will not be eligible to apply to the Fast-Track category for the following one-year period. For example, if an organization receives grants in FY 2009, 2010, and 2011, it may not apply again in FY 2012. During FY 2012, the organization may apply to other Arts Endowment funding opportunities including Access to Artistic Excellence and Learning in the Arts for Children and Youth. The organization would be able to apply to the Challenge America Fast-Track category in FY 2013. Cost Sharing: All grants require a non-federal match of at least one to one.

Title Community Action for a Renewed Environment (CARE) Program Agencies Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) Description This request for proposals (RFP) announces the availability of funds and solicits proposals from eligible entities for financial assistance through the Community Action for a Renewed Environment (CARE) competitive grant program. CARE is a unique community-based, community-driven, multimedia demonstration program designed to help communities understand and reduce risks due to toxic pollutants and environmental concerns from all sources. The CARE grant program works with applicants and recipients to help their communities form collaborative partnerships, develop an understanding of the many local sources of toxic pollutants and environmental risks, set priorities, and identify and carry out projects to reduce risks through collaborative action at the local level. CARE's long-term goal is to help communities build self-sustaining, community-based partnerships that will continue to improve human health and local environments into the future. The objective of the CARE grant program is to work collaboratively within the community to investigate the effectiveness of the CARE 4-step process (as described in the CARE brochure at http://www.epa.gov/air/care/library/2008CAREtrifold.pdf) which fosters a cross-Agency, multi-media approach to provide greater environmental benefits rather than either non-collaborative or traditional regulatory single media approaches. Under this RFP, EPA will award CARE cooperative agreements at two levels (Level I and Level II) that support different types of activities: Level I cooperative agreements will support the following types of activities: working with the recipient to form community-based collaborative partnerships; identifying and developing an understanding of the many local sources of risk from toxic pollutants and environmental concerns; and setting priorities for the reduction of the identified risks and concerns of the community. Level II cooperative agreements will support activities to identify and implement actual "on the ground," community-based projects for the reduction of the prioritized risks and concerns in their community. Level II agreements are for recipients that have already received a Level I agreement. Note: Due to appropriation law concerns, until Congress provides separate authorization, EPA can only award CARE Level II cooperative agreements to recipients that have already received CARE Level I cooperative agreements. EPA-OAR-IO-11-08 replaces EPA-OAR-IO-10-04 More Information http://fundingopps.cos.com/cgi-bin/fo2/getRec?id=98562&if=search Submission Limits Only one proposal may be submitted per applicant organization. However, an applicant organization can be a partner for more than one CARE project proposal. Cost Sharing: Although cost-sharing or matching is not required as a condition of eligibility under this competition, EPA will evaluate Level II proposals based on a leveraging criterion.
