The essential role of Grants Administration is to complement the practical knowledge of department directors by advising and assisting with grant activities. Grants Administration actively seeks grant funding and provides administrative oversight for all County grant activities ensuring that both the granting agencies and the County fulfill and administer grants according to all requirements of laws, regulations, and formally established policies.
