The Dirksen Congressional Center is offering awards between $2,500 and $5,000 through the Robert H. Michel Special Project Grant program. The program supports research that increases public understanding of the U.S. Congress though research and/or teaching. The Center accepts submissions at any time, as a committee meets monthly to review proposals and grant awards. For more information, see the link below:
