Mini GrantsCWP offers mini grants to Teacher-Consultants for up to $500 for innovative projectsrelated to writing in their classrooms or school districts. To apply for a mini-grant, the applicant must be a Teacher Consultant (TC) of the Connecticut Writing Project. TCs must submit a two-page proposal for what they plan to do and how they plan to spend the grant money. At the beginning of the second semester, grant recipients must submit a one-page status report. By the end of the academic and fiscal year, the grant money must be spent appropriately, and the recipient must submit a publishable five-page report on the results of the project and the use of the money. Copies of receipts must also be submitted. There is no deadline for application. Grants will be awarded as they are submitted, but the project must be completed by the end of that school year, and the money must likewise be spent by then. Applicants can receive up to $500.
