About this grant
This grant will enable the Communications Consortium Media Center to continue helping Mott’s State Fiscal Analysis Initiative grantees assess their communications needs, expand media contacts and explore new communications technologies, such as Web conferencing. The anticipated outcome of this project is more sophisticated and strategic communications activities among the state fiscal groups. During the pilot grant, the center helped several grantees design and begin implementing strategic communications plans that supported their policy objectives on tax and budget issues.The center, established in 1988, is dedicated to helping nonprofit organizations use media and new telecommunications technologies for public education and policy change.
