Secured a lucrative municipal grant by demonstrating the value of the programs and highlighting the unmet needs of individuals in the county who are not participating. Obtained extensive Federal grants and grew programs to 450 from 360 by devising a top-down email campaign and grassroots initiative and establishing relationships with key stakeholders at selected schools.
