Rethinking Grant Writing:
Using Proposals To Tell Your Program’s Story
The Newark Club - Newark, NJ
Wednesday, January 18, 2012; 9AM - 1PM (includes breakfast & lunch)
Is your organization having trouble meeting its grant writing goals?
Looking for ideas to help your proposal stand out from the competition?
Description
Writing a grant proposal can be very intimidating. But with the right approach, it doesn't have to be. Effective grant writing comes down to being able to tell your program's story - what makes it unique and how your constituents will benefit. Using a sound program model with realistic outcomes and deliverables is a great start.
In this session, you will learn strategies for tackling grant writing with this winning mindset. Through familiar metaphors, everyday examples, and basic frameworks, we will demystify the process, and leave you with the skills you need to win grants in today's tight market.
Attendees will gain:
- Knowledge of the components of an effective proposal, including a compelling Need Statement, sound Budget, and realistic Goals & Objectives
- Tools to ensure your proposals (and programs) are outcome-focused, including a Program Logic Model and Outcome Measurement Framework
- Steps to utilize these winning strategies again and again, including how to engage all levels of staff in your grant development process and how to stay on track with your deliverables
Who Should Attend:
Anyone with grant writing responsibilities - veterans or people new to the task - looking for outcome-focused ideas to make their proposals more competitive.
