AFSA is picky about the projects it funds. AFSA does
not fund studies related to behavioral, psychosocial,
self-help, or movement therapies. All proposals must be
budget-conscious. Your charitable contributions are
definitely needed to help us continue with our
research-funding mission. More than 90% of
contributions to AFSA go directly to research.
