WVEMS and the Virginia Department of Health, Office of EMS will host an informational session to assist your agency in writing applications and obtaining grants from various sources to assist in your programs and mission. The goal of the workshop is to teach agencies how to (1) identify, (2) plan for, and (3) write grant applications for multiple sources. Participants will walk away with at least one new grant prospect, knowledge of where to look for other grant sources, and proposal writing basics, such as how to write in active vs. passive voice, etc. The projected outcome of this endeavor is twofold: on one hand, participants will be able to secure additional grant sources, and the other is that they'll submit stronger applications for RSAF in the future with knowledge of how to develop boiler plate language and read their own writing from the perspective of a reviewer.
Featured speakers: Luke Parker, Grants Manager, Virginia Department of Health, Office of EMS and Kevin Dillard, Chair, Financial Assistance Review Committee (FARC)
