Graduate Psychology Education Program

The Health Resources and Services Administration (HRSA) is issuing a limited competition for awards among the 40 current Graduate Psychology Education (GPE) Program grantees whose project periods end June 30, 2016. No more than $1,000,000 will be made available in federal fiscal year (FY) 2015 in the form of 1-year project period grants. These awards are specifically for interprofessional training of doctoral psychology graduate students and interns to address the psychological needs of military personnel, veterans, and their families in civilian and community-based settings, including those in rural areas. An estimated five grants will be awarded with a ceiling amount of $190,000 per grant for 1 year. These funds will be used to establish, expand, and/or enhance activities that were funded under the FY 2013 GPE Program. Program funds are to be used for stipend support for interns and doctoral students, faculty development, curriculum and instructional design, program content enhancement, program infrastructure development, and the supervision and training support of interns.
