NEH Grants for Strengthening Humanities Initiatives at Community Colleges

NEH Humanities Initiatives may
• create opportunities for faculty members to study together, in order to improve their capacity to teach the humanities;
• support new humanities programs (which may include but are not limited to new humanities minors, first-year seminars, and capstone courses), and enhance existing ones;
• support humanities contributions to professional training (in such fields as business, law, economics, technology, and nursing and medicine);
• develop bridge programs for at-risk and nontraditional students;
• help institutions take advantage of humanities resources, especially in the digital humanities; and
• support collaborative projects in the humanities between the applicant institution and another institution, such as a college or university, a school or school system, a museum or library, or a historical or cultural society.
Each project must be organized around a core topic or set of themes.
