Grant Writing Bootcamp is a 2-day "deep dive" into the federal grant proposal process. Throughout the session, you will study 8 important parts of a federal grant request. You will write a Need Statement, Project Budget, Project Goals and Objectives, and Evaluation Plan. We will talk about best practices in grant management, 2020 laws and funding, and learn how to build a good logic model- a new requirement for many grants.
