Grants and Technical Assistance
LISC Connecticut offers technical assistance to community-based organizations to strengthen outcomes and increase impact for residents. LISC utilizes a variety of tools and resources, and provides support one-on-one with organizations, as well as through coordinated group learning opportunities. We support organizations as they leverage funding opportunities, navigate complex housing regulations, develop comprehensive housing strategies, strengthen organizational practices, and increase their ability to serve as an effective neighborhood partner.
LISC Connecticut invests strategically statewide to foster stronger and healthier communities.
While the bulk of our financial support is in lending and equity investments, much of it could not be done without also supporting the neighborhood groups that have the vision and ideas to get things done. Through our local office and national programs, we strategically provide grant funding to assist nonprofit organizations. Grants are designed and provided consistent with local strategies and local community development needs.
What we offer
- Organizational development grants that assist community organizations to improve their administrative structures, management and financial systems, and real estate development and management capacities.
- Technical assistance and guidance from local office staff and national experts; and
- Training opportunities and online resources delivered in person or through LISC’s Institute
