Sponsors & Grants
Supporting sponsored research and grant collaborations: From individual grants to multi-institutional efforts to community partnerships, we are building funding pipelines and have grant support on staff.
Teaching Opportunities
Building teaching opportunities around community justice research: We are inspired by the breadth of faculty expertise focusing on both Appalachia and community justice across our university system. If you are interested in teaching in the Appalachian Justice Research Lab or Justice Studies program, we can find ways to support this as part of your regular teaching load.

Research Support
Supporting research-related needs: For AJRC projects, the Center will help with institutional review board processes, public data requests, and community records access. We want to streamline your pathway to community and research.
Tenure & Promotion
Advocating for innovative research deliverables and their recognition in university promotion processes: We seek to be relevant and accessible in the research that we do with communities and are working with partners across the University to ensure that research deliverables that are meaningful to communities count toward tenure and promotion.
Academic Connections
Creating networks of scholars on campus and across the region: We seek to bring the core research faculty in Appalachia together around the developing goals of our community research collaboratives.
