[OMS_MANAGERS] FW: RARE AmeriCorps Program - Call for Community Applications!

Mon Feb 19 11:46:10 PST 2018

Hello, all. I am working on a grant application for a project to build on a
community engagement/assessment that we did a couple years ago that
identified some areas that our local community would like to see improved
upon. I'd like to move that into the next phase, and want to have some
consulting work done on feasibility studies that give us a better sense of
priority and focus. Anyone have recommendations?
