AAMC NEXT Grant 2023 Application Form
Racial, health, and health care inequities remain a national concern and an area of focus for the nation’s medical schools and teaching hospitals. With the implementation of health care reform and the challenges associated with rising health care expenditures, COVID-19, and lagging population health outcomes, AAMC member institutions are increasingly engaging with community partners to address local health priorities. Community-partnered solutions are necessary as the United States continues to confront racial and ethnic inequities rooted in systemic racism.
Educating and training the next generation of health professions leaders in how best to partner with their communities is essential to addressing systemic racism to improve population health. Health care providers must be equipped with the knowledge and skills to deliver high-quality, equitable health care in their communities and know how to engage in collaborative environments.
To further enhance the teaching and application of principles to advance racial equity in our nation’s medical schools and teaching hospitals, the AAMC is seeking applications for the AAMC Nurturing Experiences for Tomorrow's Community Leaders (NEXT) Grant. Eligible applicants include AAMC-member institutions that represent accredited medical schools and teaching hospitals, and Accreditation Council for Graduate Medical Education (ACGME)-accredited U.S. residency programs. This grant, now in its third year, seeks to support equitable and sustainable medical education initiatives that specifically address racism through community partnerships. The AAMC will award five (5) grants of up to $40,000 each to develop or enhance an initiative that addresses local community health needs to confront racism and advance racial equity. The award period for this grant will be two years from the project start date.
Please review the Request for Applications (RFA) prior to beginning your submission.
