Grant Overview
Priority Outcomes for Racial Equity Research in West Virginia
The Banking Institution's Grants For Research on Racial Equity aims to support research, evaluation, and implementation of programs that define and promote racial equity in West Virginia. The state's unique demographic and socioeconomic characteristics make it an ideal location for studying racial equity. The West Virginia Center for Civic Life, a state agency, has been instrumental in promoting civic engagement and addressing issues related to racial equity.
Target Outcomes in West Virginia
The grant prioritizes outcomes that address the state's distinct challenges. West Virginia's rural landscape and Appalachian culture present unique barriers to achieving racial equity. For instance, the state's predominantly rural population, with 64% of residents living in rural areas, can limit access to resources and opportunities. Furthermore, the state's economic history, heavily reliant on coal mining and manufacturing, has contributed to persistent socioeconomic disparities. The grant seeks to support research that tackles these challenges and promotes equitable outcomes. Some of the target outcomes include reducing disparities in education, healthcare, and economic opportunities.
West Virginia's beekeeping industry is an example of a sector where racial equity research can have a significant impact. With the state offering grants for beekeeping initiatives, research on how to promote diversity and inclusion in this industry can help address historical inequities. Additionally, small business grants in West Virginia can be used to support minority-owned businesses, fostering economic growth and equity. The state's humanities council also provides grants that can be used to promote cultural understanding and address issues related to racial equity.
The grant also focuses on addressing the needs of underserved communities in West Virginia, including those in frontier counties. The state's rugged terrain and limited public transportation can exacerbate existing disparities, making it essential to develop targeted interventions. By supporting research that prioritizes these outcomes, the Banking Institution aims to promote meaningful change and advance racial equity in West Virginia.
