APF: Psychology and Philanthropy

I am deeply honored to receive this grant that will enable me to establish an independent line of research targeted toward addressing the critical needs of Black youth. It is vital funding for early-career researchers who both aim to serve and are part of communities that have been historically marginalized.”

This grant makes it possible for me to investigate the neural foundations of emotion regulation in LGBTQ+ families, work that is often overlooked or deprioritized. It allows me to center inclusivity and diversity in my study population, ensuring that queer individuals from all backgrounds are represented. Most importantly, this support means I can focus on conducting meaningful research that advances both science and advocacy.”

This funding allows me to take the next step in turning research into action, ensuring that psychological science informs policies that support the most vulnerable children and families. It provides an invaluable opportunity to apply my expertise in child development and mental health to real-world challenges, shaping policies that expand access to care and reduce disparities.”

Receiving the Theodore Millon Grant in Personality Psychology has had an incredible impact on me as a budding researcher. This grant will help me take my research to the next level with the highest standards in psychological assessment.”

This award will allow me to advance culturally sensitive and spiritually integrated psychotherapy through my research, writing, and most importantly, supervisory work. Thank you for the opportunity and the honor, encouragement, and motivation to continue serving those in need.”
