The course includes navigational tools for understanding state and federal funding processes; working with elected officials and case studies; addressing project management issues; maximizing project impact and evaluation; financial accountability; and how to put a grant package together, from strategy to timely completion.  A private 20-minute consultation with Instructor Cora Edwards will follow the May 12 session, between 1:30-4:30 pm.
