AmeriCorps Planning Grant 2010

Applications Must Be Received By 11:59 p.m. on Monday, March 22, 2010 to jjohnson@ctdhe.org.

The Connecticut Commission on Community Service (CCCS) will target its AmeriCorps planning grants at organizations that see a community need for services and have an idea for meeting that need, but who have not fully developed a plan to provide the needed services.  Planning grants will fund program development rather than actual programs, but will prepare organizations to compete for AmeriCorps operating grants that will fund their proposed program. 

 Planning grant recipients are not guaranteed operating grants, but will have time and resources to produce very competitive operating grant proposals.
