KASP has established a program to provide for action research support. Action research consists of projects or ideas that grow from a school psychologist’s desire to know if a new intervention or new strategy is working and is effective in helping students.  Like all other KASP awards, it is only available to active members.

The purpose of the action research program is to encourage and support innovative practices in school psychology, e.g., new models of assessment or alternative service delivery models. This program will only fund innovative projects; therefore, we cannot fund expansion of existing programs, programs that are the responsibility of a school district, those that have been previously funded by the district, or trips.
