assistance until this goal was met. Prior to proposal development, each KickStarterteam performed a STEM-self assessment and developed a STEM plan, out of which researchproposal concepts were identified and matched to the appropriate NSF program, e.g. S-STEM,ATE, and later HSI. In 2016, HSIs in KickStarter cohorts began to acquire grant awards, initiallyin S-STEM and ATE. When the HSI program solicitation was announced, HSIs in KickStarterbegan switching from pursuing the Small Grants for Institutions New to the ATE Program trackto the equivalent track in the HSI program, quite successfully. A total of eleven HSI awardswere earned by 2-year HSIs participating in KickStarter for an 85% award rate. In 2019 theKickStarter program ended and no new
