In 2020, the Foundation for ACPE in partnership with the ACPE Research Committee launched the Research Grants Initiative and funded two research projects: one that explored the relationship between CPE and Emotional Intelligence ($54,987), and the other that examined the Impact of Covid-19 on CPE ($18,883). You can learn more about the findings from those two projects below. Congratulations to the research team(s) for their stellar work!

- COVID-19 and Clinical Pastoral Education: How ACPE Educators Pivoted Amid the Pandemic
The Foundation for ACPE will issue a call for proposals later this summer for research projects that advance spiritual care education, with a special emphasis on projects that further ACPE's commitment to justice, diversity, equity, and inclusion.
