The NEA Foundation supports a variety of efforts by teachers,
education support professionals, and higher education faculty and

universities across the United States.

The Learning & Leadership Grants program provides opportunities for
teachers, education support professionals, and higher education
faculty and staff to engage in high-quality professional development
and lead their colleagues in professional growth. Grants to
individuals fund participation in professional development experiences
such as summer institutes and action research. Grants to groups fund
collegial study, including study groups, action research, lesson
study, and mentoring experiences for faculty or staff new to an
assignment. The grant amount is $2,000 for individuals and $5,000 for
groups.

Applicants must be practicing U.S. public school teachers in grades
K-12, public school education support professionals, or faculty and
staff at public higher education institutions.
