The Best Practices Workshop is designed to provide peer-to-peer interactions to share lessons learned (tips for writing successful restoration proposals, issues that have been encountered, etc.) from both those that have and have not received funding. This is an effort to allow applicants to be prepared for the next funding calls from the federal funding agencies. If you are interested in applying for travel funds, please send your contact information and a paragraph describing your interest and involvement in Habitat Restoration efforts in your Great Lakes Community to sboehme at illinois.edu by August 26th. Successful Applicants will be informed by August 31st in order to make their travel plans. Travel stipends will include transportation, hotel, and registration for the AOC conference.
