The Dan E. Homeyer Play Therapy Research Award of the Texas Association for Play Therapy (TAPT) bestows two $500 research awards twice a year.
To qualify for the Dan E. Homeyer Play Therapy Research Award, you must:
- Attend or teach at a Texas college or university
- Use play therapy in some aspect of your research
- Have approval of the Human Subjects Institutional Review Board (IRB)
Once the research is completed:
- Write a short synopsis of the research findings which will be published in the TAPT Newsletter (in such form that will not preclude your publishing the findings elsewhere)
- Present the findings at the next TAPT Annual Conference (held in April). The Dan E. Homeyer Play Therapy Research Award Fund will pay for two nights at the conference hotel and TAPT will provide a gratis conference registration.
