Grant Applications Are Currently Closed — Be Part of What's Next

Thank you for your interest in the Illinois Nurses Foundation’s grant program. At this time, we are not accepting new applications as we work to strengthen and improve our funding process to better support nurse-led innovation across Illinois.

We are currently collaborating with a dedicated Task Force to build a more accessible, effective, and impactful grant program—one that truly meets the needs of nurses and nursing organizations.

What’s Happening Now

The Task Force will work from July through September, engaging in virtual meetings and reviewing feedback to shape a more user-friendly funding experience. Recommendations will be presented to the INF Board in October, with a newly revised program launching in January 2026.

We appreciate your patience and commitment as we invest in a stronger, more inclusive future for nursing innovation.

Stay connected for updates—and thank you for all that you do to advance nursing in Illinois.
