Accessing State and Non-Federal Funding Sources Kenneth J. Gill, Ph.D., CPRP
How do you do this? • Think about who needs the expertise of SHRP? • State agencies • Health care providers • Insurers • School Districts • Understand their funding mechanisms • RFPs, RLIs, State register • Relationships
How to approach? • Build on your own contacts • Start among the people you know • Clinicians • Clinical faculty • Graduates • Work as a team if possible • Use your alliance with state associations • Ask for meetings • “Fortune is a friend to the bold” • We’re between being seen as a state agency and privatization
How to approach? • Make yourself a pest? • Let it be known you (your department, program) are a potential resource to them and you are approachable! • Has to be couched in how you will meet their needs • Develop thick skin • Later, they may approach you
Benefits to Researchers and Clinicians • State and other agencies rarely fund research, but they want (or tolerate) evaluation, which we should do for every project • This program evaluation is a form of research or at least scholarship • “Spin-offs” of projects for scholarly activity • Spin-off of consultations, other services • Directly building on these contacts and projects and your success
