Federal Grant Readiness Review
The Grant Readiness & Funding Infrastructure Review is designed for agencies and organizations that want to pursue grant funding but need a clear understanding of where to begin.

The final deliverable includes a readiness summary, system/access checklist, general eligibility considerations, opportunity search guidance, and recommended next steps for becoming more prepared to pursue grant funding.
This service does not include a full review of a specific grant opportunity, application strategy, budget development, narrative writing, or proposal submission.
