Each year, New York State’s Consolidated Funding Application (CFA) provides multiple opportunities for state grant funding for capital projects, land acquisition, marketing, housing, town revitalization, canals, health and human services, environmental conservation, and capacity building
Although only one application is submitted, funding from a variety of state agencies including Empire State Development and Office of Parks, Recreation, and Historic Preservation, can be accessed with this one application. The application can be daunting, but we’re here to provide some tips that will help make it more manageable.
While this webinar will not cover the online application process, it will:
- Provide advice about answering questions
- Identify resources for research
- Give tips on making the case for economic impact, a statewide priority for funding
Join CFA grant writing expert Susan A. Mathisen for a few tips that can help you win CFA funds.
