DEEL is investing $1 million to increase access to clinical therapeutic mental health services and supports for Seattle secondary students and/or youth ages 13-24 who live and/or attend school in Seattle, including opportunity youth whose education has been interrupted to support their return to school and/or career.
DEEL mental health investments are designed to improve the mental wellness of Seattle youth and support improved education outcomes and career readiness. This investment is part of the City’s Every Child Ready Initiative and funded by the Families, Education, Preschool, and Promise (FEPP) Levy.
A primary goal in expanding access to therapeutic mental health services for Seattle youth is to ensure availability of culturally and linguistically responsive services for populations where local need and underreach are evident.
A needs analysis and landscape assessment conducted by DEEL staff identified youth populations in Seattle who are not currently accessing existing mental health services or experience disproportionate barriers including gaps in culturally responsive and linguistically appropriate care.
DEEL is seeking applications from providers with a demonstrated history of effectively serving: Immigrant and refugee youth Youth who speak a primary language other than English BIPOC youth served at low rates and/or underserved relative to their share of the youth population in Seattle by current community-based therapeutic services, including Native Hawaiian/Pacific Islander American Indian/Alaska Native North African/Middle Eastern youth A total of $1M in funding is available for the contract period from September 1, 2026 to August 31, 2027.
The available funding amount per provider varies based on proposals and contract negotiations, with anticipated award amounts ranging from $170,000 to $830,000. Please note: Funding awards and contract execution under this RFP are contingent upon approval of the 2025 Families, Education, Preschool and Promise (FEPP) Levy Implementation and Evaluation Plan by Seattle City Council and the availability of appropriated FEPP Levy funds.
DEEL reserves the right to modify, delay, or cancel awards based on Council action or changes to available funding.

The NSF CAREER award puts a minimum of $400,000–$500,000 over five years behind a single untenured faculty member, and it is the credential that shapes a research career. Here is who is eligible, why the integration of research and education is the criterion that decides it, and how to approach the July 22, 2026 deadline.
Read articlePA-27-034, PA-27-035 and PA-27-036 replace the institute-specific R25 announcements that research education programs have been built around for a decade.

Here is what the consolidation actually changes: an 8% indirect cost ceiling, a US-citizens-and-permanent-residents participant rule, a cooperative agreement variant that only exists on one of the three, and no clinical-trial-allowed companion anywhere.
Read articleNSF's Faculty Early Career Development Program — the CAREER award — has a July 22, 2026 deadline, a $400,000 floor, a five-year runway, and roughly 500 awards a year across every directorate. It is the most prestigious grant a pre-tenure scientist can win, and the one most often lost on the integration requirement rather than the research. Here is what the award actually funds, who is eligible, and how to build a proposal that treats research and education as one program instead of two.
