If you are interested in applying for an ESRI grant, the information and links are included below. You will need a letter of support, which I will write for you. I am also happy to brainstorm project ideas and review your proposal prior to submission.

4-H GIS/GPS Evaluation:

I am currently putting together an IRB so that we have approval to collect data on the impact of 4-H community mapping projects in Illinois. If you are doing ANY activities with GPS or GIS (you do not need to have an ESRI grant) please let me know by Nov. 7th how many youth you have reached (or plan to reach), the age range, and ethnicity of participants. I will send the evaluation tools once we get IRB approval.
