Benefits of Capacity Grants

Organizations talk about the changes they've seen because of their grants:

 

  • "Wow! Our strategic plan turned into an annual plan for each program and staff person.  We are doing quarterly reviews of the plan.  It has helped us to communicate with all staff, experienced and new, what their goals are and has allowed us to do a better job celebrating the progress we have made."

 

  • "With the ability to monitor the profit/loss results for each program much more closely, the board is much more likely to quickly close a poorly performing program."

 

  • "We have begun a community wide obesity initiative with the assistance of a retired pediatrician. We took this project on as a result of goal setting through our strategic planning process."

 

  • "The impact is still being made.  Three great examples: 1) increase our services in the far West (Clay, Cherokee, Graham and Swain), 2) moved forward in strengthening our connection in the Qualla Boundary, 3) excellent outreach efforts for the foreclosure prevention loan fund."

 

  • "Pathways helped us build a true working strategic plan that keeps the board focused on the next two years.  This realistic approach facilitated a new way to look at our programs and services without having an overwhelmingly visionary approach of a 5 or 10 year plan."
