Budgeting in human services organizations brings  about many challenges. Human services agencies must be creative in  managing their budget due to the increased demands on the agency and the  needs of the clients and stakeholders. There are many legal,  contractual, and other requirements under the concept of financial  management, as such agency administrators need to be creative to obtain  funding. Applying for grants in both the private and public sectors is  one access to funding resources. Most grants will require that you  present a proposed budget for use of the funds. Thus, grants and  budgeting often go hand in hand.

For this  Discussion, think about grant writing and the elements needed to write a  successful grant. Then, review sample grants at . Identify one grant to discuss. 

By Day 3

  • Provide a brief description of the grant proposal you selected and  explain the strengths of the proposal and any areas where it could be  improved.
