Writing for Green (WFG) is planning a train-the-trainer program for the TCTACs, to equip trainers to provide grant-writing training and support to the organizations and communities they will be serving. The training, follow-up support, and access to WFG's suite of products and services (which are valued at $30,000 per TCTAC) will be sponsored by the EDF and FRI (Dr. Margot Brown). The training event will be co-hosted by CEEJH (Dr. Sacoby Wilson) and will take place over two days (October 25-26) in Washington D.C. at AKA Alexandria, 625 First St, Alexandria, VA 22314. During the event, TCTACs will be trained on WFG’s core training & coaching platform. Details about the substance of the training can be found here.
