Free Grant Application Consulting
Grant Application (GA) Consulting is available at no cost for all applicants in developing (proposals/applications/bids). The King County Department of Community and Human Services GA/CB team will prioritize small entities with fewer than 20 full-time equivalent (FTE) staff and an operating budget of less than $4 million in the prior fiscal year.

GA Consultants can:
- Assist in determining appropriate fit between your project and the request for proposals
- Provide guidance on how best to answer questions
- Support (proposal/application/bid) review, including editing and budget review.
