Who Should Attend: Nonprofit professionals who want to be prepared to navigate the federal grant process with confidence.

Applying for federal grants can – to put it mildly – be daunting. In this training, we make it easier by guiding participants through the major components, the key similarities and differences between foundation and federal grants, and how policy can impact the timelines of federal grant opportunities and deadlines. We then guide you through some of the pitfalls and highlights of writing federal grants, including planning, writing, submission, management, and the hotly debated topics of writing styles and budgets/finances.

What You’ll Learn:

• How to examine major trends in federal funding  
• How to find appropriate grant opportunities for your organization as an awardee
  or as a partner agency
