Opportunity Information: Apply for 22 584
The National Science Foundation (NSF) grant opportunity titled "LSAMP National Coordination Hub and Louis Stokes Community Resource Centers" (Funding Opportunity Number 22-584) funds two new kinds of awards under the long-running Louis Stokes Alliances for Minority Participation (LSAMP) program: an LSAMP National Coordination Hub (the "LSAMP Hub") and Louis Stokes Community Resource Centers (LSCRCs). Together, these awards are meant to strengthen and scale LSAMP's core mission: diversifying the United States STEM workforce by increasing the number of STEM bachelor's and graduate degrees earned by students from groups that are historically underrepresented in STEM, specifically Blacks and African Americans, Alaska Natives, American Indians, Hispanic and Latino Americans, Native Hawaiians, and Native Pacific Islanders. The emphasis is not only on getting more students to graduation, but also on ensuring they graduate well-prepared and competitive for STEM graduate programs and STEM careers.
A central feature of this solicitation is the creation of the LSAMP Hub as a national "connector" for the LSAMP ecosystem. The Hub is intended to promote more intentional coordination, stronger collaborations, and richer interactions across the broader LSAMP community. In practice, that means the Hub serves as a bridge not just among existing LSAMP alliances, but also between alliance and non-alliance organizations, helping the program share effective practices more widely and create more coherent national-level momentum. The Hub is described as the nexus for LSAMP activities, linking and aligning efforts across LSAMP alliances, existing Louis Stokes Regional Centers of Excellence in Broadening Participation (LSRCEs), and the newly funded LSCRCs. The solicitation highlights that Hub activities should be comprehensive, evidence-based, innovative, and sustainable, with the clear outcome of increasing completion and advancement in STEM for LSAMP-eligible populations.
The second major component, the Louis Stokes Community Resource Centers (LSCRCs), is designed to accelerate knowledge-building and dissemination around what works in broadening participation in STEM. These centers are positioned as engines for research, communication, and community-building in areas such as STEM education for LSAMP populations, broader participation strategies, and preparation tied to national STEM priorities. In addition to producing and spreading research findings and practical lessons, LSCRCs are expected to support a community of scholars and practitioners by facilitating scholarly opportunities, helping create a stronger pipeline of research-based approaches that can be adopted across institutions. The idea is that LSCRCs will not just generate insights, but also help those insights travel, get implemented, and improve outcomes at scale.
Taken together, the Hub and LSCRCs are meant to complement and amplify the work of existing LSAMP alliances rather than replace them. The solicitation frames this as an effort to strengthen knowledge production, expand dissemination, and deepen partnerships both inside the LSAMP network and with other national initiatives focused on STEM education and workforce development. NSF also explicitly ties the opportunity to broader national priorities and strategy documents, including the NSF Strategic Plan for FY 2022-2026 (with its focus on STEM talent development and delivering benefits from research), the National Science Board's Vision 2030 (including the "missing millions" talent gap concept), and the federal STEM education strategic plan, "Charting a Course for Success: America's Strategy for STEM Education." This alignment signals that proposals are expected to contribute not only to local or regional improvements, but to a coordinated national approach to expanding STEM talent.
From an administrative standpoint, this is a discretionary NSF grant opportunity in the Science and Technology and other Research and Development category (CFDA 47.076). Eligibility is listed as unrestricted, meaning proposals are broadly open to many entity types, subject to any specific eligibility clarifications in the full solicitation text. The opportunity was created on April 24, 2022, with an original closing date of January 9, 2023. NSF anticipated making about six awards, with an award ceiling of $5,000,000, indicating that these projects are expected to be substantial in scope and capable of influencing practice and coordination across a wide community rather than operating as small, isolated pilots.Apply for 22 584
