Ambassadeur 2 & 4
Session Description

The aim of this presentation is to provide information to enhance ability and skills in grant search and development. The presenters will review primary funding sources and provide tips in locating the right funding to support your research and other grant funding needs in promoting evidence-based practice. During the session, we will also discuss the key components in developing a grant proposal, with special focus on the Recreational Therapy Foundation research grant application. Participants may find it easier to engage in activities if they bring a laptop computer or tablet.

This is the second of two complimentary sessions on supporting evidence-based practice. Attendees do not need to attend both, but may find it helpful.
