Child Health Collaborative Grant Award

The Child Health Collaborative Grant Award aims to improve the health of children and adolescents throughout Minnesota. 

The grant program supports collaborative research that addresses important, unmet child health issues in Minnesota by developing and translating innovative, evidence-based health improvement strategies.

CTSI teamed up with the University of Minnesota’s Department of Pediatrics and Children’s Hospitals and Clinics of Minnesota in 2014 to create this program as part of a broader effort to support research partnerships among community and University child health researchers. Research teams funded through this program must involve at least two co-principal investigators – one from Children’s, and one from the University – and demonstrate active engagement with the Department of Pediatrics.
