This is not another how-to-write-a-grant-proposal book. Unlike those books, Getting Grants argues that no matter what type of organization, there is a direct relationship between the organization's internal proposal development process and how successful the organization is at securing grant funding. Existing books focus solely on writing grant applications. Getting Grants deals with every step of the process: how and where to find sources of funding; The pre-proposal planning and development stage; The completion of a grant proposal; The role of the grant writer and/or grants office in an organization; The role of the project director in the grants process; How to tailor the proposal and the budget to the funder; How to nurture relationships with grant partner organizations; Getting Grants includes a CD-ROM with forms and checklists in MS Word format. Use these forms in grants administration, as well as links to other valuable resources.

This book provides an overview of the six grant types, provides criteria for defining a block grant and uses that criteria to provide a list of current block grants, examines competing perspectives concerning the use of block grants versus other grant mechanisms to achieve national goals, provides a brief historical overview of the role of block grants in American federalism, and examines recent changes to existing block grants and proposals to create new ones. The authors also describe key sources of information on government and private funding, and outlines eligibility for federal grants. Moreover, how to develop and write a grant proposal is also discussed in this book. In preparation for writing a proposal, the report first examines preliminary information gathering and preparation, developing ideas for the proposal, gathering community support, identifying funding resources, and seeking preliminary review of the proposal and support of relevant administrative officials. The second section covers the actual writing of the proposal, from outlining the project goals, to finally developing the proposal budget. This book consists of public documents which have been located, gathered, combined, reformatted, and enhanced with a subject index, selectively edited and bound to provide easy access.
