Competitive grants for graduate students studying factors related to chronic disorganization

LARCHMONT, N.Y. - Feb. 9, 2020 - PRLog -- Call for Proposals: Competitive grants for graduate students studying factors related to chronic disorganization

The Institute for Challenging Disorganization (ICD®) is calling for proposals for competitive grant funding for Masters and PhD level students who are researching topics related to chronic disorganization, such as hoarding disorder, ADHD, OCD, depression, anxiety, traumatic brain injury, and more.

Chronic disorganization:

·      persists over long periods of time,

·      frequently undermines quality of life, and

·      recurs despite repeated self-help attempts

Research is needed to better understand the causes, prevalence, and impact of chronic disorganization. The deadline to apply for funding is March 6, 2020 for funding in April/May. Two grants of $1,000 each will be awarded. Recipients of these grants will produce a white paper about their research and present their results at the ICD Virtual Assembly on October 17, 2020.
