<p class="x_MsoNormal">Good morning! I am looking for peer reviewers for the 2024/2025 Improving Access to Information grant program. If you have experience writing or reviewing grants and have some time this summer, we need you! If you would be interested
in doing this, it consists of reading 5 to 6 proposals in June/early July, completing the review rubric for each one and attending a grant review meeting in mid/late July. Grants are reviewed fully online in a grant reviewer portal of our grant system. I’ll
do a brief training meeting for the online grant review portal in early June. The review meeting is both in-person and virtual attendance and is required.</p>
<p class="x_MsoNormal"> </p>
<p class="x_MsoNormal">Let us know if you might be interested in participating as a reviewer.
