Proposal Writing: Effective Grantsmanship (Sage Human Services Guides)

• The Practice of Macro Social Work
• Direct Social Work Practice: Theory and Skills (with InfoTrac®)
• Community Organizing and Community Building for Health
• The Only Grant-Writing Book You'll Ever Need: Top Grant Writers and Grant Givers Share Their Secrets
• Building a Strong Foundation: Fundraising for Nonprofits

This book has been updated and revised to help beginning students and grantwriters write an effective proposal, which increases their chances of success. The Third Edition of Proposal Writing: Effective Grantsmanship is not an exhaustive text on proposal writing; its purpose is to provide a solid foundation upon which to add years of experience to fine-tune grant writing skills. Authors Soraya M. Coley and Cynthia A. Scheinberg de-mystify the grant writing process and provide a guide to writing that is as jargon-free and simple to use as possible.

New to the Third Edition
