Participants will learn how to prepare strong grant proposals. Elements of general proposal writing will be discussed: mission, purpose, budgets, partnerships, timelines, the value of pilot projects, possible sources of funding, consideration of continuity of project through permanent funding. Establish priorities, distill essence of their needs in proper format…. A bibliography of resources will be provided. Examples of weak proposals will be critiqued.

- to identify a weak proposal.
