Emergency Medicine Residents’ Association Seek Applications for Local Action Grants

The Emergency Medicine Residents’ Association is accepting applications for projects that promote the involvement of emergency medicine residents in community service and other activities supporting the specialty of emergency medicine.

A single grant of $1,000 will be awarded to a project related to improving community health through education, direct services, or preventive programs (e.g., developing a local bicycle helmet education program); supporting the specialty of emergency medicine through community awareness, advocacy of local and state medical societies, or involvement with local and state government; and/or improving opportunities for resident education and interaction on the residency, state, or regional level (e.g., travel honorariums for speakers or the development of a regional EM resident conference).

Any EMRA member (medical student, resident, fellow) or any emergency medicine interest group whose principal applicant is an EMRA member is eligible to apply.

See the EMRA website for complete program guidelines, information about previously funded projects, and application instructions.

DEADLINE: FEBRUARY 15, 2016
