Grants for Community Organizing in the Northeast

Community Training and Assistance Center: Intermediary Support for Organizing Communities

The Intermediary Support for Organizing Communities Program, administered by the Community Training and Assistance Center (CTAC), provides small grants and technical assistance to build the capacity, sustainability, and impact of grassroots organizations that are engaged in important community organizing work in low-income communities. Six to eight grants of up to $20,000 will be awarded to groups in Connecticut, Maine, Massachusetts, New Hampshire, New Jersey, New York, Pennsylvania, Rhode Island, or Vermont. Applying groups must demonstrate a track-record of successful community organizing within their low-income community or constituency. Priority will be given to organizations with the capacity to effectively partner with networks at the city, state, and/or national levels in efforts to promote broad-based social change movements.

The application deadline is May 21, 2010.
