These workshops are for those new to the grant application writing arena. They are one-day workshops covering not only the basics of grant writing but also the preparatory work necessary to produce successful grant applications. The workshops start with sign-in and networking from 8:30 am to 9:00 am. Most workshops conclude between 3:00 pm and 4:00 pm. Seating is limited to the first 75 registrants.

To register for one of these FREE workshops, send an email to SGMS@la.gov, call (225) 342-7412, or visit our website at http://www.doa.louisiana.gov/cdbg/SGMScalendar.htm. Please include the name of attendee, organization name, contact phone number, and return email address.

 

The Introduction to Grant Writing Workshop shows how to:

  • Review your group's funding needs
  • Register to apply for federal grant funds
  • Locate funding sources
  • Understand how grant funding works
  • Organize and write your grant application

 

It is SGMS' goal to help Louisiana groups do well in the grants arena.
