Lichtenberg, Ph.D., ABPP, Director of the Institute of Gerontology, Wayne State University "Proposal Planning & Writing outlines rational methods for developing excellent proposals that stand out and get noticed.

Rubel, Sargeant (Ret.), Evanston Police Department; Client Solutions, College of Lake County "Proposal Planning & Writing contains secrets of success from grants experts who practice what they teach.

Whether you're writing to the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation or the National Institutes of Health, these tips work."-John R. Meurer, MD, MBA, Associate Professor and Chief of General Pediatrics Medical College of Wisconsin "The Miners are national grant experts who have found a way to explain how to write project goals, objectives, methods and outcomes without grief!"-Allen C. Harris, Director, Iowa Department for the Blind "With more funding decisions being made on the basis of half points, this book shows you how to make your grant application stand out from the competition."-Kim Casey, Marketing and Grant Writing, Sendero Group LLC "I love being able to see so many examples of complete proposals--operating support, physical facilities renovation, programmatic support--it's all in there."-David Midland, Executive Director, National Association of Health Education Centers "Miner and Associates excellent leadership and contribution to the grant development field continue to be foundational for successful grant seekers."-Kathleen Diaz Taggart, Assistant to the President for Research Compliance and Regulatory Services, Creighton University "The ideas in this book have worked extremely well for me in both the United States and now in Canada.

We've invited them back for many years and continue to take advantage of their success tips and techniques."-Victor Mbarika, Ph.D., Associate Professor of Management Information Systems Southern University and A&M College "Our Advancement team finds the approach this book takes toward the competitive world of grant-seeking to be refreshingly candid and pragmatic. It offers no guarantees, of course, but the authors do an exceptional job of scattering bread crumbs through the forest."-Michael J. Brauer, Vice President, University Advancement Cardinal Stritch University "As a relatively young grant maker, we recognize that applicants are still 'trying to figure us out.' So, at our invitation, the Miners presented their grant writing tips at a special regional workshop we hosted for potential program applicants. The result: the overall quality of grant proposals we received increased dramatically, particularly from attendees."-Cathy Frey, Assistant Director, The Wisconsin Partnership Program "Proposal Planning & Writing is my favorite grant-seeking reference guidebook; my personal copy is dog-eared with colorful post-its marking my 'go-to' passages, especially the 'Time-Saver Tips, ' that I share with library members. I have even dumpster dived to retrieve my copy when the cleaning crew accidentally threw it out. Now, there's a testimonial for you!"-Sharon S. Ball, Grants Coordinator and School/Youth Liaison, North Suburban Library System

Reseña del editor:

In a world of limited funding, grantseeking is extremely competitive. Now in its 4th edition, this standard guide to proposal planning and writing offers new information and examples to help grantseekers in the Internet age. New to this book are updated websites, including 25% more than in the last edition. In response to user feedback, this updated volume also provides more examples of successful proposals, including 9 letter proposals, complete with annotations. The book also offers expanded information on evaluation and outcome assessments, which are key to obtaining grants. Finally, the book gives an extended discussion of project sustainability after grant support runs out, a factor critical to successful applications. As in earlier editions, this book discusses funding from government, foundation, and corporate sponsors. Included are practical advice and examples on developing proposal ideas, identifying funding sources, creating systems and procedures to support grantseeking activities, developing proposal components, budget forecasting, submission procedures, and follow-up techniques.
