Arc of Washington Trust Fund
The Arc of Washington Trust Fund was established in 1950 to provide funds for research
into intellectual and other developmental disabilities. The Trust Fund is administered by a
Board of Administrative Trustees. The purpose of the Arc Trust is to promote research on
the causes, prevention and treatment of intellectual and other developmental disabilities
and their personal, social and legal consequences. The Trust Fund also provides student
stipends with the hope that this will allow colleges and universities to attract and retain
students interested in working in the field as researchers, teachers or practitioners.
Research Grants:
Most successful applicants have been affiliated with research universities and have
addressed educational, medical or psychological issues, but the Arc welcomes innovative
proposals from any applicant on any topic related to its purposes. Grantees must live or
work in Washington, Oregon, Idaho, Alaska or British Columbia.
Letters of intent explaining the nature of the proposal and how it relates to the Trust’s
purposes, with an estimate of the amount of support required (maximum of $10,000) may
be submitted no later than August 15 of each year. Researchers will be notified by August
25 as to whether or not the Trust Board requests a formal grant proposal.
