Grants Development

Our approach to grants development incorporates in-depth research and collaborative planning with our clients. Through a partnership with RA, our clients are afforded comprehensive, turn-key grants development including needs assessments, program design, budget development, and sustainability planning.

"We are pleased in every aspect of our relationship with Research Associates. They tailor a grant to sound as though the writer is a lifelong resident of the applicant's community. When we ask them to write a grant for our district, we feel almost assured of getting it. Their follow-up, long-term assistance, and grant support services are outstanding, helping us meet all deadlines and keeping us on task. We have allocated money in our budget just for them."

Areas of Focus

Our current focus is on US Department of Education federal grant programs and proposals for multiyear State Department of Education grants. Geographically, we provide grants development assistance in the southern region. Our recent programs funded through grants developed for our clients include:

  • 21st Century Community Learning Centers
  • School-Based Mentoring
  • Smaller Learning Communities
  • Advanced Placement Incentives
  • Early Reading First
  • Transition to Teaching

Post-Award Support

Our most important role is to allow agency leadership to focus on meeting the needs of their constituents instead of worrying about the frustrating details of grants management. We offer technical assistance, develop required reports for the funder, provide fiscal monitoring, interpret funding policies, and monitor overall grant implementation to help guide our clients in keeping their programs on track.
