This project will develop a community of practice among Historically Black Colleges and Universities (HBCUs) to facilitate proposal submissions to NSF. It will also prepare faculty at HBCUs to be more active in the proposal review process. If successful, this activity will serve as a model that can be expanded to other types of emerging research institutions. The project seeks to increase the submission of successful research proposals originating at HBCUs. It develops and implements a replicable model for technical assistance support for HBCU researchers and sponsored programs personnel at HBCUs that will strengthen research development and reviewing skills. The project will recruit two groups of people at each one of the HBCUs involved: one group focused on the development and submission of proposals and a second group that receives immersive training in proposal review. Amongst other training activities, participants in the project will be mentored in the process of proposal development and proposal submission and participate in mock review panels. An external assessment component will examine the impacts of the training. This award is funded in whole or in part under the American Rescue Plan Act of 2021 (Public Law 117-2).This award reflects NSF's statutory mission and has been deemed worthy of support through evaluation using the Foundation's intellectual merit and broader impacts review criteria.

该项目将在历史上的黑人学院和大学（HBCU）之间建立一个实践社区，以促进向NSF提交提案。它还将使HBCU的教师在提案审查过程中更加积极。 如果成功，这一活动将成为一种模式，可以推广到其他类型的新兴研究机构。 该项目旨在增加来自HBCU的成功研究提案的提交。它为HBCU研究人员和HBCU赞助方案人员制定并实施了一个可复制的技术援助支持模式，这将加强研究开发和审查技能。该项目将在每个HBCU招募两组人员：一组专注于提案的开发和提交，另一组接受提案审查方面的沉浸式培训。除其他培训活动外，该项目的参与者将在拟订提案和提交提案的过程中得到指导，并参加模拟审查小组。 外部评估部分将审查培训的影响。 该奖项全部或部分由2021年美国救援计划法案（公法117-2）资助。该奖项反映了NSF的法定使命，并通过使用基金会的知识价值和更广泛的影响审查标准进行评估，被认为值得支持。
