The beginner-friendly class will take place on Monday, March 30, 2026, from 9:00 AM to 12:00 PM at the Deep East Texas Council of Governments (DETCOG), located at 1405 Kurth Drive in Lufkin. The training is open to the community and designed for anyone interested in learning the fundamentals of securing grant funding.
