The Horowitz Foundation, as of the 2007 distribution, approves approximately ten
grants each year, in amounts ranging from $3,000 to $5,000 per grant.

The Foundation makes targeted grants for work in major areas of the social sciences,
including anthropology, area studies, economics, political science, psychology, sociology,
and urban studies, as well as newer areas such as evaluation research. Preference
will be given to projects that deal with contemporary issues in the social sciences and
issues of policy relevance and to scholars in the initial stages of research. Awards are
allocated solely on the basis of merit.

Applicants are not required to be U.S. citizens or U.S. residents. Candidates may propose
new projects, and they may also solicit support for research in progress, including
final work on a dissertation, supplementing research in progress, travel funds, or preparing
a work for publication. Preference will be given to advanced graduate students
and untenured assistant professors and instructors.

Candidates should submit applications no later than January 31, 2008. Awards will be
announced in May 2008. Applicants are invited to request an application from:
