Ethics: The Ethics of Program Design – Plans and Partners

 

 

Ethics: The Ethics of Program Design: Plans and Partners
Session 5 of the Ethics Series

Creating a high-quality grant proposal can be challenging when organizations may also be designing the program at the same time. Alignment to the mission of the organization and its strategic plan versus chasing funding can lead to ethical questions. This can become even more complicated when adding community partners to a grant project. Creating a quality partnership requires trust, but often partnering in a grant together breeds distrust due to each organization fearing they are losing out on funding they could be receiving. This session will examine the issues of ethics which develop while a program is being developed and a grant proposal is being created.

It will examine issues of program alignment and internal approval, how to involve partners in program design, how to describe a partner and partnership, how partner services are compensated and how this compensation is described, and how funder intent should be carefully considered in all of these matters.
