Current Contract and Grant Opportunities
Whether it is improving policy, tracking trends, or bettering life in our hometown of Philadelphia, The Pew Charitable Trusts seeks tangible results through a rigorous, analytical, and evidence-based approach. The foundation of our work is careful planning; a consistent focus on facts, science, and data; strong partnerships; and a commitment to innovation and measurable results. To achieve our goals, we often seek grantmaking opportunities or look to hire a variety of organizations with expertise in one of our fields of interest.
Below are our current opportunities:
State Policies and Efforts Addressing Health Impact of Changing Environmental ConditionsDescription: The Pew Charitable Trusts is seeking proposals from qualified organizations to evaluate current state-level policy approaches and actions aimed at addressing the health impacts of changing environmental conditions such as temperature, air quality, and weather patterns. The selected contractor will conduct a landscape evaluation of state health agencies and their efforts to develop and implement programs that minimize negative health impacts from changing environmental conditions; to integrate environmental and health data that supports health care and public health responses to environmental events; and to develop and implement surveillance tools and predictive models that identify emerging health threats.

Research, Analysis, and Modeling to Help States Conduct Long-Term Expenditure ForecastsType: RPF Description: The Pew Charitable Trusts seeks a contractor to produce research, provide analysis, and develop tools to help states conduct expenditure forecasts. This includes developing a typology of possible approaches to long-term expenditure forecasting, identifying or designing a promising approach, producing an example forecast, and drafting a guidebook to support implementation. The goal of this work is to demonstrate effective methods and produce practical, actionable guidance for states. The resulting product will be used to help inform and advance Pew’s efforts to expand and strengthen states’ capacity for long-term expenditure forecasting.

Hospitals and Suicide Care: Cost-Benefit AnalysisType: RPF Description: The Pew Charitable Trusts seeks a contractor to conduct a comprehensive analysis of the costs and benefits to hospitals and health systems of implementing universal suicide screening and suicide risk discharge care. This includes reviewing existing research, identifying of direct and indirect costs and benefits (monetary and nonmonetary), conducting quantitative and qualitative analyses, and drafting a paper for publication. The goal is to assess the business case for hospitals to adopt evidence-based practices—universal suicide screening, safety planning, lethal means counseling, warm hand-offs to outpatient care (i.e. one provider connects a patient in-person or virtually to another provider), and follow-up contact—that help identify and engage patients at risk for suicide. This project builds on the understanding that while many providers recognize the importance of suicide prevention services, significant gaps remain because of resource constraints. The resulting work will support informed policy and practice decisions in hospital settings. Contact: Patial Sherzai ([email protected]) Key Dates:
