The IEB leadership team recognizes the need to support and promote educational opportunities beyond our current capacity. Many programs, activities, and events that embody antiracism, diversity, equity, and inclusion (ADEI) offer valuable professional development. To ensure budget constraints do not hinder those interested in furthering our mission and personal growth, we offer an IEB grant program to help offset some of the costs associated with participating, attending, or creating ADEI programming.    

The process is simple. Complete this form describing your funding needs. If you are requesting funds for Fall 2025, applications must be completed by October 1, 2025; if you are requesting funds for Spring 2026, applications must be complete by March 1, 2026. As grant request review and decision will require a minimum of two weeks, we firmly recommend submission at least one month in advance of the activity. The IEB leadership team will review your request, evaluating alignment with our mission and vision. You will be notified via email within two weeks about your award status or if additional information is needed. The grant will be open until all funds have been exhausted, at which time we will notify the campus ending that it has closed. We aim to offer the ACE grant annually to support ongoing engagement from staff, faculty, and students, as long as funding allows. 

We will be holding office hours every Tuesday in September from 2-4 p.m. in Worner 216 for those who would like to talk through potential submissions before the October 1 deadline
