SWK 685 - Community Development & Grant Writing

Credits: 3

This course seeks to deepen and expand the student’s knowledge and understanding of community-based organizing and economic development and how they can be combined through community-building strategies that are shaped by participative organizing and advocacy. Students will receive grounding in the factors underlying community distress: social, political, and economic, and explore managing financial resources, principles of philanthropy, fund raising planning and management, grant writing, and stewardship/accountability requirements.
