Please join us for the FREE webinar: “Writing Grant Proposals for WRAP” with Katherine F. H. Heart, president of Heart Resources on February 9, 2012 – 2:00 pm to 3:30 pm EDT.
This webinar will provide basic information about seeking grants for Wellness Recovery Action Plans. Grants can be found to: start or expand the number of WRAP groups, train facilitators, integrate WRAP into formal systems of care, and apply WRAP to other community programs that serve the needs of children and families, veterans, and other people with health and mental health issues. Participants will learn about the grant seeking process, basic proposal writing, researching potential funders, and resources for further study. WRAP Facilitators may be able to advance their careers by developing knowledge and skill in grant proposal writing.
This is a great opportunity for anyone looking into ways to fund a WRAP program as well as for people looking to advocate to get more WRAP into their agency or organization. It is ideal for WRAP Facilitators, administrators, volunteers, board members, and those using WRAP or those supporting others to use WRAP.
Katherine F.H. Heart, M.Ed. presented this topic at WRAP Around the World and offers an eGuide: Writing Grant Proposals for WRAP and Wellness Recovery Programs. Katherine founded Heart Resources, LLC, a social enterprise company dedicated to spreading wellness with grant projects, presentations and publications that assist nonprofits to solve challenging health problems. She received a master’s degree in health and physical education from the University of Pittsburgh in 1984. Katherine managed nonprofit programs in fitness/ health promotion and victim services for 15 years before she became disabled with Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) – her wellness story can be found among the Voices for Recovery at SAMHSA’s National Recovery Month website. In the past 10 years, Katherine’s efforts have earned millions of dollars in grant awards for health and human service organizations from corporate, foundation and government funders. She makes frequent presentations on wellness and grant topics. Her company participated in the consortium to develop the Health People 2020 Objectives and signed the 10×10 Wellness Campaign pledge. Katherine recently started a blog to disseminate a peer-advised physical activity program developed with the Steel Valley Council of Governments and funded by the Office of Health Promotion/Disease Prevention.
