What to Expect if Awarded
If your group receives a PRO Neighborhoods Planning & Design Service Award, you can expect the following:

1. Signing a Memorandum of Understanding

Upon notification of your award, your group will develop and sign a Memorandum of Agreement between the group members, PRO Neighborhoods, and the Professional Team. The MOA will define the scope of the project and clarify responsibility for each aspect of it.

2. Reporting to PRO Neighborhoods

Groups are asked to keep in touch with PRO Neighborhoods staff over the course of the project. Groups are required to submit short written reports every four months. PRO Neighborhoods staff will make at least two site visits to meet with the group and see how the project is progressing. Staff is also available to help with advice and referrals, and to participate in group work days.

3. Participating in PRO Friends

Members of award groups volunteer a total of 6 hours through the PRO Friends program. These hours can be completed by hosting a community meeting, inviting at least 10 neighborhood residents who are not already involved in the project to let them know about the project and about PRO Neighborhoods. The volunteer hours can also be completed in one or more of the following ways:

• Mentor another grantee group
• Review grant applications
• Assist PRO Neighborhoods staff in the delivery of a workshop
• Develop a tracking system, a document, or a tool useful to other grantee groups.

4. Moving On

When groups have completed their projects, staff will make a final site visit and the group submits a final report. All members are invited to sustain their relationship with PRO Neighborhoods by coming to our workshops, seeking technical assistance, or applying for a cash grant. We are always interested in supporting previously funded groups who move on to even more challenging activities.
