Proposal Writing

Proposal Writing is an expansion of the successful First Edition. Soraya M. Coley and Cynthia A. Scheinberg have broadened their scope while still maintaining the aspects that made the first edition a bestseller. They have added a chapter on program development; updated the material to reflect changes in service delivery, such as collaborations; and addressed the use of technology in proposal writing. Proposal Writing is an invaluable guide for anyone in the non-profit sector who needs to write grant proposals and compete effectively for funds, and for schools of social work and nursing. cover......Page 1 Title......Page 2 ISBN 0-7619-1960-0......Page 3 Dedication......Page 4 CONTENTS......Page 6 FOREWORD......Page 8 PREFACE TO THE SECOND EDITION......Page 10 1 AN ORIENTATION TO PROPOSAL WRITING......Page 12 2 UNDERSTANDING THE AGENCY AND FUNDING ENVIRONMENT......Page 22 3 NEEDS-BASED PROGRAM DEVELOPMENT......Page 32 4 WRITING THE NEEDS OR PROBLEM STATEMENT......Page 42 5 WRITING GOALS, OBJECTIVES, AND IMPLEMENTATION ACTIVITIES......Page 50 6 WRITING THE EVALUATION PLAN......Page 66 7 CREATING THE BUDGET......Page 78 8 AGENCY CAPABILITY AND FINISHING TOUCHES......Page 94 Appendix A......Page 100 Appendix B......Page 104 REFERENCES......Page 108 ADDITIONAL SUGGESTED READINGS......Page 110 ABOUT THE AUTHORS......Page 112 An Orientation To Proposal Writing -- Understanding The Agency And Funding Environment -- Needs-based Program Development -- Writing The Needs Or Problem Statement -- Writing Goals, Objectives, And Implementation Activities -- Writing The Evaluation Plan -- Creating The Budget -- Agency Capability And Finishing Touches -- Appendix A: Estimating Time -- Appendix B: Funding Resource Information.
