Grant Writing 101: Nothing Is Impossible

SESSION INFO

Monday, August 28, 2023
9:15 AM - 10:45 AM
Session Type: Workshop

Are there programs you’d like to have for your clients, but can’t afford? Are there things your clients need that you can’t provide? Do you have no idea how to obtain funding for these things? Would you like to learn the basics of writing grant proposals and get information on where to look for funding? This workshop will provide basic skills needed to write successful funding proposals and will provide information on how to find funding opportunities. Participants will look at samples of proposals that wouldn’t be funded and samples of proposals that were successful and determine the differences between them. You will leave the workshop with a dream goal and steps to begin the process. Remember – NOTHING is impossible!
