Grant Resources at IPRC
We have access to online and CD-ROM databases on potential government, foundation, and corporate funding sources, as well as print materials. We also can provide detailed profiles of foundation sources, along with information on funding restrictions, contact people and submission procedures. These reference services are provided without charge to Indiana- based prevention programs.
Funding Reference Sources Available at IPRC:
- FC Search, The Foundation Center's Database on CD-ROM
- Directory of Indiana Foundations, CD-ROM
We also have access to several online resources through the Indiana University Research Gateway. Due to copyright restrictions, we are unable to provide direct Internet access to most of the online reference databases that we use to assist local prevention programs identify potential funding sources. We will be glad to conduct the necessary searches for Indiana-based prevention programs, without charge, as part of our technical assistance service.
