About the Retreat
We are not currently accepting applications for CAHSSA Writing Retreats. Future opportunities will be advertised through the CAHSSA Mailing list.
Purpose
CAHSSA Writing Retreats are intended for faculty who are actively preparing proposals for submission to a federal agency, foundation, or other external sponsor and who would benefit from structured writing time and targeted feedback. Participants will:
- Make substantial progress on a research proposal for external funding
- Receive individualized feedback from experienced research development mentors
- Build a network and community with social scientists from across the CSU and UC systems
The retreat emphasizes protected writing time, supplemented by short, optional workshops and one-on-one mentor consultations.
