Offering Mini Grants for Contextual Instruction

Hello,

We are having a discussion in the Health Literacy Group about a new curriculum for ESOL. At the moment,we are hearing about some mini grants that have been offered to programs throughout Florida. You can see that comment here: https://community.lincs.ed.gov/comment/9992#comment-9992

I'd love to hear from program administrators what you think of a mini grant program like this. Have you ever done something like this in your programs? What would be the pros and cons?

Thanks for any thoughts you can share!

Julie
