Project Description
This section is often the bulk of a Grant Proposal and requires a great deal of thought, planning and purposeful writing.
The first step is to write a goal with a series of objectives to solve “the problem” you identified in the “Statement of Need”. The objectives need to be chronologically ordered and specific. A combination of behavioral, performance, process and product objectives are recommended. In general, you will have three objectives for each goal. Each objective will have multiple strategies and each strategy will have multiple activities. This is why it is important to focus on one problem/need. I suggest creating no more than one or two goals for this proposal.
Then based on the project goal and objectives, you need to identify and explain the activities to implement your organization’s “solution” based on your strategies. Be sure your activity description is comprehensive. For example, if you plan to hire new staff, think through all the issues to get this process done [e.g. advertisement, interviews, background checks, references check, etc…] and the time it would take to complete the hiring process.
You also need to keep in mind two other issues. First, your objectives are the items to be assessed in the evaluation component of the Grant. Objectives should be SMART. Secondly, when you create your budget summary, the individual line items will reflect the costs associated with the activities that are fulfilling the objectives.
Don’t forget to use a timeline table in your Project Description. Whether it’s a Gantt chart or a similar table illustrated in the textbooks, it serves as a valuable planning function.
This section will be the longest part of your grant proposal.
This assignment should be in APA style.
