Copyediting

Project details

What we need
  • Review of up to 20 pages of copy for grammar, style, tone, and consistency
  • Advice on how to write effective copy going forward
Additional details

We are looking for someone to help us with our Parent Handbook to make sure that it is easy to understand and more concise.

What we have in place
  • We currently have a draft, which should make it easy for you to get started. We also have expertise about what regulations need to be included, and the ability to provide any other information you need.
How this will help
This project will save us $1,792 , allowing us to redesign our client meeting spaces to be more child friendly.

This handbook lets our clients understand our program, their rights and the regulations that dictate the child care financial assistance program that they're a part of.
