FUNDING GUIDELINES &
PROCESS
Start working on your proposal at
least 3 months before the
deadline. The CPC will not consider incomplete or late
proposals. First, download and read the funding
guidelines and forms below carefully.
Then contact us for an in-person meeting, so we can answer questions
and
provide computer-fillable forms (the forms linked to this page are
read-only). |
Contact us at any time of year to ask:
- if your proposal can be considered
off-cycle (early)
- if you can use the
shorter, supplemental funding
process
- for help in preparing a pre-proposal (a
"one-pager") to get early confirmation of your
proposal's eligibility, seek
matching funds, or
make the CPC aware of a future proposal
