To help members of non-profit agencies and government agencies decipher the intricacies of the grant seeking process, the Thurston County Prosecutor’ s Office,  in conjunction with the Washington State Vocational Rehabilitation Council, are hosting a week- long grant writing workshop.

The training will be held May 16-20, 2005 at Lacey Government Center located at 1009 College Street SE in Lacey WA .
