Grant Writing Proposal Institute
The Proposal Writing Preparedness Institute was the product of over six months of collaborative work with other capacity-building assistance (CBA) providers. It was an idea that had its beginnings over four years ago and is rooted in the front-line experiences of working with agencies in Los Angeles County.
Over three days, the institute intended to enhance the capacity of agencies to write competitive proposals that would ultimately result in high-quality, high-impact prevention and treatment services. Additionally, the institute provided agencies with useful skills-building resources and enhance services that agencies currently provide to communities of Los Angeles County.
