This is a 3-part workshop series focused on crafting successful proposals toward sustainable financing of climate resilience and stormwater-related projects. This series offers knowledge sharing, idea exchange, and real-world advice and inspiration. Participants are led through successive sessions that build upon one another, from understanding what grant agencies look for in their applications, to beginning the process of establishing sustainable financing sources.
In this first workshop, participants will discuss grant opportunities and challenges in facilitated small group discussions. This will be followed by brief presentations by state funding agencies about grant programs, and local communities who have successfully navigated these programs. Participants will come away from Workshop 1 having shared their ideas, been inspired by stories of success from other municipalities, and with a short list of funding opportunities.
