Abstract
Brief description of the proposal (usually about 500 words): Executive summary Very important: first section evaluator will read
On a review panel, primary reviewer(s) will read the whole application, but voting members may only have the abstract
Write after entire grant has been completed
Address each required area, lift the most significant sentence from each
![Page 22: Grant Writing - NJHA · 2019-06-06 · Most grantors will explain the review criteria: chances of getting funded are increased if you design your proposal with the review criteria](https://reader031.vdocuments.site/reader031/viewer/2022011900/5f02e0487e708231d40672b8/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
Writing SMART Objectives
SMART: Specific: Targeted rather than generalized
Measurable: Quantify the change you want to see
Attainable: Don’t try to cure world hunger, promise too much or reach for the stars.
Relevant: Does it make sense in the context of your proposal, is it tied to reality
Time bound: When will this objective be met, what is the due date, what is your time frame?
![Page 23: Grant Writing - NJHA · 2019-06-06 · Most grantors will explain the review criteria: chances of getting funded are increased if you design your proposal with the review criteria](https://reader031.vdocuments.site/reader031/viewer/2022011900/5f02e0487e708231d40672b8/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)
OBJECTIVES To be sure your statement is an objective begin with words such as:
To provide……
To establish.…..
To create…..
Example
Within 6 months of the program implementation the following objectives will be accomplished:
Hire 1 nurse
Conduct lead screenings to 250 children
Educate 50 parents about lead hazards and prevention

How are grants reviewed?
Many good grants are submitted: more than there is funding to cover them
Granting agency must find a fair way to decide which will be selected for funding
Most grantors will explain the review criteria: chances of getting funded are increased if you design your proposal with the review criteria in mind.
When writing your grant look for ways to showcase how this element or a particular outcome is what the grantor is looking for
Use key words and phrases from the grant guidelines and review criteria that can be easily found by the reviewer
Provide evidence to support a good score for your grant proposal

What is the average grant award for this type of proposal
What is allowable under this grant
Can funds be carried over
Are no cost extensions allowed?
Policies of your agency
Salary scale for your agency
Fringe benefit amount
Indirect costs
Resources and costs associated with each project task

Top Reasons for Not Getting Fundedhttp://www.einstein.yu.edu/ogs/Guide/Hints.htm
Guidelines are ignored Importance of the project is
unclear Hypotheses are not supported by
literature and/or preliminary data Project is technology-driven rather
than hypothesis-driven Required personnel and expertise
not assembled Experimental plan is unfocused
and hard to understand Experiments do not include all relevant controls
Potential obstacles and alternate approaches are not discussed
Work load, budget and/or time-frame unrealistic
Problems with methods and data analysis Weak conceptual framework Inappropriate acknowledgement of
previously published research Investigators and/or consultants named
in research narrative but not listed on budget or "Key Personnel" page
Institutional resources are insufficient Letters of support were weak or
unrelated to the proposal
