Technical Assistance

Technical Assistance and Capacity building
The Clinic Technical Assistance program is designed to provide nonprofit organizations with on-site or office-assisted help with specific organizational and management problems. Nonprofit organizations that have identified specific needs, or require assistance identifying their organizational needs to enhance their effectiveness and performance can benefit from the technical assistance. The technical assistance includes, but is not limited to:
  • Community Need Assessment
  • Strategic Planning
  • Grant Writing
  • Board Development
  • Program Evaluation
  • Marketing/Public Awareness
  • Information Technology
How to request assistance:

We ask that a nonprofit organization submit its request in writing, either by letter or by e-mail. After the Clinic receives the request, it is evaluated to determine how the Nonprofit Clinic may assist the organization. After the needs assessment of the requesting nonprofit organization is completed by the Clinic, the Clinic staff contacts the requesting nonprofit organization for further necessary action. A scope of services letter shall set forth the specific technical assistance that the Clinic will provide the nonprofit organization.

It is anticipated that the technical assistance will be of short duration, in most cases not exceeding more than a few weeks. If clinical services do not require an on-site presence, the Clinic staff may be able to assist a nonprofit organization by identifying internet-based links or sources of information available in the Clinic's Information Library

Costs:

In most cases, qualifying organizations will receive clinic assistance at low cost.
