COMMUNITY RESOURCES

We are very active in the community and we value making connections, decreasing duplication of services, and increasing collaboration where we can. The first step to any of those is simply knowing what is currently available! As we learn about different resources, we’ll share them here. As we create different resources, we’ll share those here. Knowing what’s available helps us promote effective strategies as well as identify holes that need to be filled.

One of the key funding sources for our local nonprofits is granting foundations and organizations. Each has its own calendar, deadlines, request process, and grant use purposes. It’s a lot to keep track of and often results in missed opportunities for both the grantors and the potential grantees. As one small step to take some of the uncertainty out of the process, here is our first attempt at collecting grant opportunities and application timeframes.

A community health assessment (sometimes called a CHA), also known as a community health needs assessment (sometimes called a CHNA), refers to a state, tribal, local, or territorial health assessment that identifies key health needs and issues through systematic, comprehensive data collection and analysis.

There are several organizations that conduct CHA’s in the Marinette and Menominee communities.

Through the data and information that they find, extensive plans are created to address key populations and community issues.

CAPACITY BUILDING RESOURCES

AVAILABLE BY REQUEST

Provident conducts what we call “Capacity Building” grants. This is where, instead of money, we grant our staff’s time and expertise to nonprofits to increase their fundraising/operating/Board/programmatic/compliance/marketing/etc. capacity. Along with that, we’ve created resources that can be used by nonprofits to increase their capacity without our direct intervention.

Why is this section password-protected? We are cognizant of the fact that the internet is worldwide and our resources are intended to be for a very specific audience - nonprofits in Marinette County, WI & Menominee County, MI. We create these resources in response to direct needs we’ve observed in the nonprofits where we operate or by request of those nonprofits. We want to keep our resources available only to the audience for which they were created so that what we produce doesn’t lose the context within which it will be best understood and relevant.
