About AOTF
Established in 1965, AOTF is an independent 501(c)(3) charitable, scientific, and educational organization. We serve as the premier resource for occupational therapy research and scholarship, working alongside researchers, educators, practitioners, community partners, and students to build evidence-based practice that improves lives.
As the only foundation dedicated exclusively to advancing occupational therapy science, we bridge the critical gap between innovative research and real-world practice. Our work ensures that occupational therapy interventions are grounded in rigorous scientific evidence, ultimately improving outcomes for millions of people worldwide.
Hand in Hand Research Grant
Background
To address the urgent need for more practice evidence in hand and occupational therapy, the American Occupational Therapy Foundation (AOTF), American Society of Hand Therapists (ASHT), and the American Hand Therapy Foundation (AHTF) have joined forces to launch the Hand in Hand Research Grant- a proof-of-concept initiative designed to close the gap between research and real-world practice.
Program Mission
The Hand in Hand Research Grant aims to spark innovative, early-stage research that is deeply rooted in community engagement. This grant is designed to help lay necessary groundwork for future large-scale studies by supporting foundational work that advances real-world impact in hand and upper extremity therapy.
This grant seeks to catalyze partnerships among researchers, clinicians, and community stakeholders, fostering collaboration at every stage of the research process. By prioritizing research that is grounded in the lived experiences and practical realities of diverse communities, this initiative aims to ensure that findings are not only evidence-informed but also actionable in everyday practice settings.

Hand Foundation's Student Grant Program
Through The Hand Foundation's Student Grant Program, we provide scholarship grants to full-time aspiring students attending or preparing to attend an accredited college, university, or trade school.

Prospective students shall complete a Letter of Interest prior to submitting an application (which can be started here on the site via submit). The letter should include two elements - first, a personal bio with high school history (achievements, activities, skills, interests, etc.) and second, college objectives and goals (institution planning to attend, area of focus, projected start and end date, career goals). The student candidate will provide their contact information - mailing address, phone number, email.
The Foundation will review the letter based on merit and budget, then, will send an application to the student candidate to complete.

Grants are considered for charitable and impactful programming as well as capital endeavors that assist in supporting a nonprofit organization’s core mission.
Emerging Program and Capital Grants support high-impact, sustainable, and responsive nonprofit organizations in delivering their core missions through thoughtful and time-bound projects. These grants help address an immediate need that is critical to the organization’s work. Grant amounts are up to $100,000, most often paid over one year.
Transformational Capital Grants provide major funding for nonprofit organizations to permanently and profoundly improve their mission delivery by supporting the development of physical spaces and/or assets that create a meaningful difference in enhancing the ability to provide high-quality, impactful programs and services to those served. Grant amounts are over $100,000, often payable over multiple years.
Organizations that have not been previously funded by the Foundation are encouraged to apply for Emerging Program and Capital Grants to familiarize the Foundation with its work before submitting an application and proposal for a Transformational Capital Grant.

Commonwealth Innovative Internship Fund and Program
In 2018, the Virginia General Assembly appropriated funding to the State Council of Higher Education for Virginia (SCHEV) to stimulate public colleges and universities to develop partnerships to provide innovative paid internship opportunities for their students. In 2019, the effort was expanded and enacted into law as the Innovative Internship Fund and Program.

Transforming Federal Work-Study and On-Campus Jobs Program
Recognizing the diversity of Virginia’s higher education institutions and the fact that institutions are at various stages in the process, the intent of this call for applications is to support institutions wherever they are at in their journey to transform federal work-study (FWS) jobs and/or on-campus jobs to be internships/more internship-like while adhering to federal policy requirements for FWS.
The grants can be used for implementation planning, piloting or scaling transformed FWS programs and/or on-campus jobs, depending on where an institution is in the process.
Three competitive grant tracks for funding will be offered to meet an institution wherever they are at in the process; the tracks are summarized below. Institutions do not have to start at the beginning (implementation planning) unless necessary; otherwise they apply for the stage they are in or about to undertake.
Institutions that operate Federal Work-Study (FWS) programs must prioritize transforming their FWS positions but may also propose broader transformations of other on-campus jobs. Institutions without FWS programs may submit proposals under the tracks below focused on transforming on-campus positions to be more internship-like.
Implementation Planning Grant
One-year award.
This track applies to institutions just starting to think about (or in the midst of) aligning key offices, functions, positions and shoring up leadership support for the transformation. This stage is predominately institution/internally-focused.
