Finding Grants and Funding
Finding funding opportunities online - This National Resource Center Effective Practice provides a broad oerview of websites and resources for searching for available grants and requests for proposals.
Books
- The Only Grant-Writing Book You'll Ever Need: Top Grant Writers and Grant Givers Share Their Secrets!: A great catch-all guide for grantwriters.
