The grant program is now CLOSED.

Another benefit for International Association of Women Police (IAWP) members is our IAWP Foundation grants!

IAWP Foundation provides grant support:

• To support the educational and professional development needs and activities of the various IAWP affiliates and members in all locations. 
• To provide or conduct training conferences, programs, educational events and workshops relating to women police from anywhere in the world.
• To assist and support women in law enforcement to develop a network or association with the understanding they will seek to affiliate with the IAWP. The above may be reduced in any one year due to funding restrictions or other reasons.

IAWP Foundation’s primary funding purpose is to develop women in policing who are ineligible for funding through other entities.

• Applicants must be active IAWP Members or Affiliate Members.
• Applicants who demonstrate financial need will be given priority.
• Applicants are limited to one IAWP Foundation grant per fiscal year.  Those receiving funding may not re-apply for a three-year period.
• IAWP Foundation grants will be reviewed until all available funds have been allocated.
• IAWP Foundation does not fund expenses incurred before an applicant is awarded funds (retroactive expenses). All expenses listed in the budget justification must be expenses that will be incurred after the grant is awarded.
• IAWP will not provide funds to pay fees for or cover the expenses of speakers at any training conference, program or educational event.

All funding proposals will be reviewed on an annual basis. Follow the instructions provided in the application material.
