Mentoring Clusters Grants
Mentoring Cluster Grants support groups of early-career faculty in theology and religion who gather regularly with experienced mentors for mutual support, professional development, and vocational reflection. These grants foster a culture of collegiality, resilience, and flourishing by investing in the formative early years of academic life. Funding supports retreats, travel, hospitality, and facilitation for intentional mentoring relationships.
Stronger Together: Building Communities of Mutual Support
Peer Mentoring Cluster Grants provide up to $10,000 to support small groups of BIPOC faculty in Religion and Theology. These grants create spaces for learning, professional growth, mutual support, and communal care.
Sharing Wisdom, Strengthening Community.
Intergenerational Mentoring Cluster Grants provide up to $30,000 to support small groups of faculty who want to explore the practices and possibilities of mentoring across generations in higher education. These grants foster collegial relationships, professional growth, and communal care among early career faculty and senior colleagues in religion and theology.
Grant Coaching
The Wabash Center understands our grants program as a part of our overall teaching and learning mission. We are interested in not only awarding grants to excellent proposals, but also in enabling faculty members to develop and hone their skills as grant writers. Therefore we offer grant coaching for all faculty interested in submitting a Wabash Center Project Grant proposal.
