DESCRIPTION:Employing equity-driven practices when managing and supporting 
 community-based initiatives require comprehensive and intentional design i
 n all attempts to engage community. Participatory grantmaking (PGM)\, a st
 yle of grantmaking that emphasizes decentralized decision-making where gra
 ntees have a level of influence in funding decisions\, is one way of shift
 ing power to those closest to community work. In this presentation\, we do
 cument our team’s experience developing and facilitating a style of part
 icipatory grantmaking called network voting\, within the context of an exi
 sting cohort of community-based project partners. In obtaining feedback fr
 om participants\, we document lessons learned to amend our process and inf
 orm the most recent PGM iteration in its second form\, as we continue to c
 enter those invited to apply.
