About the Workshop Series: The Climate Resilience &amp; Stormwater Management Workshop Series builds from ongoing local initiatives to help Rhode Island municipalities move from successful grant writing toward sustainable financing of climate resilience and stormwater management projects. This 4-part series offers knowledge sharing, idea exchange, and real-world advice and inspiration. Participants are led through successive sessions that build upon one another, from understanding what grant agencies look for in their applications, to beginning the process of establishing sustainable financing sources.<ul><li>Workshop 1: Feb. 20, 2020 | "Preparing for Success"</li><li>Workshop 2: March 19, 2020 | "Developing the Perfect Proposal" </li><li>Workshop 3: May 4, 2020 | "Sustainable Financing"</li><li>Workshop 4: May 12, 2020 | "Climate Resilience Financing"</li></ul>For more information about the SNEP Network, check out our webpage at http://snepnetwork.org/.
