Grant Overview
Target Outcomes in Nebraska's Translational Research Internship Grant
The Nebraska Internship Grant for Translational Research, funded by the Banking Institution, aims to support undergraduate or post-bachelors candidates in psychology, education, public health, or related fields. The program focuses on achieving specific outcomes that address the state's unique challenges and opportunities. The Nebraska Department of Health and Human Services, in collaboration with the University of Nebraska, plays a crucial role in identifying priority areas for research and internship placements.
Nebraska's rural landscape and agricultural economy present distinct challenges and opportunities for translational research. The state's frontier counties, with limited access to healthcare services and resources, require innovative solutions to address the mental health needs of their residents. The grant's target outcomes are designed to address these needs, with a focus on improving mental health outcomes, enhancing community resilience, and promoting evidence-based practices in the state.
Priority Outcomes for Nebraska's Internship Grant

Improving Mental Health Outcomes in Rural Nebraska: The grant prioritizes research and internships that address the mental health needs of rural Nebraskans, particularly in frontier counties. Projects may focus on developing and evaluating interventions, improving access to mental health services, or enhancing community-based support systems.
-
Enhancing Community Resilience and Trauma-Informed Care: Nebraska's communities have faced numerous challenges, including natural disasters and economic stressors. The grant supports research and internships that aim to enhance community resilience and promote trauma-informed care practices. This may involve developing and evaluating community-based programs, providing training and technical assistance to service providers, or assessing the impact of trauma on community outcomes.
-
Promoting Evidence-Based Practices in Education and Public Health: The grant prioritizes research and internships that promote evidence-based practices in education and public health.

For instance, the Nebraska Community Foundation provides funding and technical assistance for community-based initiatives that promote health and wellness.
To achieve the grant's target outcomes, successful applicants will be placed with host organizations that have a strong track record of conducting translational research and providing high-quality mentorship.
