Technology-Enhanced Adoption Recruitment and Matching Innovation Hubs (TE-ARM)

No Applicants // Limit: 1 // Tickets Available: 1

Limiting Language
An organization may submit only one application as lead applicant and may apply for only one region. An organization may participate as a partner or subrecipient on applications for other regions, provided such participation does not create conflicts of interest or compromise the organization’s ability to fulfill its primary commitment.

Summary
Child welfare agencies continue to face challenges in recruiting and matching adoptive families for children awaiting permanency, due in part to outdated processes, limited data integration, and inconsistent access to effective tools. Most jurisdictions rely on static photo listing services, fragmented data systems, and manual caseworker knowledge to identify potential matches. While existing national recruitment resources provide important visibility for waiting children, there is a growing need for modern, technology-enabled approaches and tools that actively support caseworkers in timely, data-informed, and high-quality matching decisions. 

ACF will fund regional innovation hubs to design, implement, and evaluate human- centered technology-enabled solutions that improve adoptive family recruitment and matching. These solutions may include data-informed recruitment tools, AI-assisted matching, and predictive analytics to accelerate permanency for children in foster care. 

ACF expects to fund three regional innovation hubs—you must apply to the appropriate region: 

  • Eastern Region. 
  • Central Region. 
  • Western Region. 

Innovation hubs will partner with pilot jurisdictions in their region to develop, deploy, and evaluate these tools; strengthen agency capacity; and support implementation through intensive technical assistance, training, and continuous quality improvement. Hubs will also disseminate tools, best practices, and lessons learned to jurisdictions across their region and collaborate nationally to promote shared learning.

For the purposes of this NOFO, pilot jurisdictions must be public child welfare agencies that administer Title IV-E foster care and adoption assistance programs at the state, territorial, tribal, or local level. 

If awarded, recipients will focus on the following activities: 

  • Applied research, development, and testing of technology-enabled recruitment and matching solutions. 
  • Training, coaching, and technical assistance to support implementation. 
  • Advancement of interoperability and data standards. 
  • Implementation of privacy, security, and safeguards. 
  • Dissemination and knowledge sharing to support the broader field. 

To support effective implementation of all program activities, each innovation hub must establish and implement a robust performance measurement and continuous quality improvement (CQI) framework to assess progress, inform decision-making, and drive continuous improvement. 

Through these activities, the program aims to accelerate permanency, improve the quality and stability of adoptive placements, and strengthen the child welfare system’s ability to use data and technology to support children and families.

2026 Greenwall Faculty Scholars Program in Bioethics

Limit: 1 // Tickets Available: 0 

D. Alharthi (College of Information Science) 

Limiting Language:

Only one applicant from a university or non-profit research institute will be considered in each application cycle. Institutions are expected to conduct an internal review and selection process, as the Foundation will not consider multiple letters of intent from a single institution. For purposes of this policy, the Foundation considers the parent university to be the relevant institution. Accordingly, a university with a law school, medical school, several teaching hospitals, and a faculty of arts and sciences may only submit one letter of intent in total. If a university system, such as a state-wide university system, comprises several universities, each university within the system may nominate one applicant.

Program Overview
The Greenwall Faculty Scholars Program in Bioethics is a career development award to enable early-career faculty members to carry out innovative bioethics research. The program is designed to support projects that address a significant bioethics problem and extend beyond current work in bioethics, while fostering a community of Scholars and Alums committed to advancing the field.

Each year, the Foundation selects approximately three Greenwall Faculty Scholars to receive 50 percent salary support for three years to pursue a defined research project and further develop their research program.

Scholars and Alums attend twice-yearly meetings, where they present their works in progress, receive feedback and mentoring from the Faculty Scholars Program Committee and other Scholars and Alums, and have an opportunity to cultivate collaborative relationships across institutions and disciplines. Third-year Scholars are expected to help plan these meetings. Program Alums remain actively engaged, providing mentorship to newer Scholars and creating a sustained network for professional development, collaboration, and scholarly exchange. In addition, all first-year Scholars participate in a philosophical bioethics seminar series, and other professional development opportunities may be offered through the Program.

The Program Committee oversees the Faculty Scholars Program, selects Scholars and recommends them for funding, and plays an active role in mentorship and professional development activities.
