Child Safety and Health Project Grants Available from National Children’s Center for Rural and Agricultural Health and Safety

Friday, June 26th, 2026 -- 11:01 AM

Some grants are available for child agricultural safety and health projects.

Letters of Intent will be accepted until noon (Central Time), July 13, 2026, for grants up to $45,000 to support small-scale projects and pilot studies addressing emerging issues in agricultural safety and health.

The National Children’s Center for Rural and Agricultural Health and Safety will prioritize rapid responses to new or unresolved/complex problems, especially those that reduce and prevent youth exposures and hazards on the farm, increase safety culture, or widely disseminate best practices and other information for use by families and employers.

Applicants may request up to $45,000 for research studies and up to $17,000 for non-research or outreach projects. Applicants must submit a one-page Letter of Intent that includes project goals, objectives and key personnel. Send letters of intent to [email protected].

If the project concept is judged to have merit, the applicant will be invited to submit a full proposal. For more information, visit https://marshfieldresearch.org/nccrahs/rfa.
