About Grant Consulting

We provide grants assistance to ATOD prevention practitioners in Indiana, including:

  • Assistance in identifying potential funding sources
  • Guidance in locating potential partner agencies and consultants
  • Review and critique of proposal drafts
  • Information on program planning and proposal writing
  • Training in proposal development and strategic fundraising skills

Consultation and training are provided without charge to Indiana-based prevention programs. Participants in the proposal-writing courses pay a nominal charge for meals and refreshments.

Intensive grants assistance (up to 200 hours) is available for organizations that have the capacity to manage large-scale, sustainable prevention programs, especially ones that have community-wide scope and have the potential for replication in other Indiana communities.
