1 Program Guidelines and Preparatory Application Instructions FY09 LOCAL ARTS AGENCY GRANT PROGRAM Program Guidelines PROGRAM DESCRIPTION The Connecticut Commission on Culture & Tourism (CCT) Local Arts Agency (LAA) grant program supports LAAs as regional partners of the Commission. Eligible LAAs (see page 3) are invited to apply for a one-year funded Partnership Agreement to develop their ability to serve constituent needs, strengthen cultural resources in their communities, expand relationships within and beyond the arts, and be an important vehicle for change. State and Local Partnerships Through this partnership program, CCT is developing a network of committed LAA partners in the field who are helping to build a state wide arts infrastructure to more effectively serve Connecticut s citizens. Program funding focuses upon service activities that develop an LAA s coordinating and leadership abilities (see below). LAAs submit a Preparatory Application package, attend a mandatory Partnership Conference and consulting session, and submit a final Partnership Funding Request (see The Partnership Grant Process, page 3).

7 Connecticut Commission on Culture and Tourism FY09 LAA Program Preparatory Application Guidelines, Page 7 The SWOT analysis represents: Strengths: Weaknesses: Opportunities: Threats: catalog the internal attributes of your organization that will help to achieve the agency s goals and objectives as an LAA. catalog the internal attributes of your organization that may be detrimental to achieving the agency s goals and objectives as an LAA. catalog the external conditions that will be helpful to achieving the agency s goals and objectives as an LAA. catalog the external conditions that may be detrimental to achieving the agency s goals and objectives as an LAA. The SWOT analysis process produces the greatest value when a number of key staff and/or Board members participate in the process of identifying strengths, weaknesses, opportunities and threats facing the organization. The diversity of perspectives conveyed in a collective process will improve your SWOT analysis and support preparation of the required one page Situational Analysis (see page 8). Your SWOT analysis may be more effective if focused upon a clearly identified objective(s). Begin your SWOT by generating specific strategies toward advancing the mission of your LAA. Concentrate upon identifiable objectives that can be realistically attained within the funding period of the LAA grant program (July 1, 2008 through June 30, 2009). It may be helpful to reflect on the following questions: How can we use and/or emphasize each Strength? How can we minimize each Weakness? How can we exploit current Opportunities? How can we defend against identified Threats? Internal & External Factors: 'Strengths' and 'Weaknesses' are internal to your organization. 'Opportunities' and 'Threats' are presented by the external environment. Internal factors may be perceived as strengths or weaknesses depending upon how they a specific objective(s). One factor may represent a strength with respect to one objective and be a weakness as regards a different objective. External factors may include macroeconomic matters, technological change, legislation, and socio-cultural changes, as well as changes in the marketplace or competitive position. Use the list below to help begin your SWOT analysis. Strengths and Weaknesses Resources: financial, intellectual, location Strong relationships with key stakeholders Customer service Organizational structure Stage of organizational development Quality of programming Key staff & volunteers Management Marketing reach Price & competitive advantages Costs of business Capacity to achieve stated goals Culture, attitude of the organization Philosophy & values Operational efficiency Experience, knowledge, data Innovative aspects Accreditations, qualifications Processes, systems, IT Reputation Cash flow Continuity Reliability Opportunities and Threats Political/Legal/Regulatory environments Economic conditions Expectations of stakeholders Technology development Public expectations Competitors and competitive actions Market developments Industry trends Partners & collaborators Social changes Customers & constituents Global influences New markets, niche markets Program/product development Information & research Market demand Vital contracts Obstacles faced Internal capacities Insurmountable weaknesses Loss of key staff Sustainable finances Seasonalities

8 Connecticut Commission on Culture and Tourism FY09 LAA Program Preparatory Application Guidelines, Page 8 SITUATIONAL ANALYSIS The Situational Analysis is limited to one page. When creating your attachment, please maintain the format requirements listed on page 5 of these Guidelines. Clarify and simplify your narrative. Use bulleted information or charts where appropriate. Your analysis will benefit from the information and knowledge gained by examining your organization s Strengths, Weaknesses, Opportunities & Threats. The Situational Analysis is an intrinsic part of the strategic planning process. As local arts agencies exist within complex and changing environments, it is critical to understand the organization s situation in order to design the best response(s), set program priorities, and assure meaningful decision making with respect to limited resources. The more you know about your organization s situation, the more solid the foundation of your community relationships. An accurate Situational Analysis is essential to understanding the organization s and the community s needs. In order to maintain objectivity and broaden participation in the Situational Analysis, you may wish to consider opportunities to involve key stakeholders in the process of creating this document. Some of the factors to be considered when conducting a Situational Analysis include: community/regional demographics changing population dynamics economic structures of the community/region topographical/geographical characteristics of the community/region available support systems community/regional cultural characteristics, education levels, living standards, income levels other distinguishing features of the community/region (attitudes, motivations, etc.) your organization s current programs/services (core Vs secondary/supporting) community/regional services available competitive situation/advantages community/regional/statewide/national trends your organization s needs and assets diagnosis of current/approaching problems and challenges examination of relevant research consequences of organizational capacity on past and present goals and objectives What are the major factors that shape your organization s current circumstances? In your narrative, attempt to provide details regarding the opportunities, challenges, and needs that are most relevant to the achievement of your organization s and the Commission s LAA program goals. You may choose to describe your organization s top management challenges, organizational capacity matters, evaluations of existing programming, strategic planning considerations, concerns regarding constituent changes or major stakeholders, and so forth. Current circumstances should be defined as the situation prevalent at the time of preparing your application, with an emphasis on conditions that are most likely to influence actions and strategies during the time period of this grant (July 1, 2008 through June 30, 2009). ORGANIZATION BACKGROUNDER The Organization Backgrounder is limited to one page. When creating your attachment, please maintain the format requirements listed on page 5 of these Guidelines. What is an Organization Backgrounder? A Backgrounder is a document that explains the history of your agency and its services, programs, and products. The Backgrounder for this application is intended to help the grant review team and others involved in the partnership process to better know the history and accomplishments of your organization. Backgrounders are generally written for the media. Some of the factors to be considered when preparing the Backgrounder include: organization name, location, date started, why started the main activities/mission of your organization explanation of your services/programs/products
