Our members at the heart of our actions: towards a concerted strategic reflection

EF 2019-20 · 2019-09-03

Résumé
This 32-month project will enable the organization of a provincial gathering of LGBTQ2 organizations to engage in strategic reflection on developing a shared organizational vision that considers the diversity of realities and issues faced by LGBTQ2 communities in Quebec. It will also contribute to strengthening the organization's financial sustainability and its capacity to support its members by improving its communication practises, implementing a micro-financing program primarily for LGBTQ2 service organizations located outside of the province's metropolitan areas, and providing fundraising support services and capacity-building activities to its members. The additional $300,000 in funding will allow for continued expansion of the organization through the strengthening of its governance and communication practises, in addition to program development. The organization will also implement an action plan derived from its own strategic planning in order to build the capacity of its member organizations by creating an intra- and inter-regional mentorship program, exploring new networking opportunities, developing a fundraising strategy, and organizing a second provincial LGBTQ+ consultation meeting with member organizations. The 12-month extension and the second tranche of additional funding will allow the organization to build a culture of solidarity and mutual support among its members in order to strengthen the democratic practices, representativeness and legitimacy of the council, and to reinforce the cohesion of their working team as well as its internal skills.

Description (French)
Ce projet de 32 mois permettra l’organisation d’un rassemblement provincial d’organismes LGBTQ2 en vue d’amorcer une réflexion stratégique sur l’élaboration d’une vision organisationnelle concertée et tenant compte de la diversité des réalités et des enjeux des communautés LGBTQ2 au Québec. Il contribuera également à renforcer la viabilité financière de l’organisme et sa capacité à soutenir ses membres en améliorant ses pratiques de communication, en mettant en œuvre un programme de microfinancement ciblant principalement les organismes de services LGBTQ2 situés à l’extérieur des régions métropolitaines de la province et en offrant des services de soutien à la collecte de fonds et des activités de renforcement des capacités à ses membres. Le financement supplémentaire de 300 000 $ permettra de poursuivre l’expansion de l’organisme en renforçant sa gouvernance et ses pratiques de communication et en développant sa programmation. L’organisme mettra également en œuvre un plan d’action fondé sur sa planification stratégique afin de renforcer les capacités de ses organismes membres par la création d’un programme de mentorat intrarégional et interrégional, d’explorer de nouvelles possibilités de réseautage, de développer une stratégie de collecte de fonds et d’organiser une deuxième réunion provinciale de consultation LGBTQ+ avec les organismes membres. La prolongation de 12 mois et le deuxième financement supplémentaire permettront à l’organisme, d’une part, de bâtir une culture de solidarité et d’entraide entre ses membres afin de renforcer les pratiques démocratiques, la représentativité et la légitimité du Conseil, et d’autre part, de renforcer la cohésion de son équipe de travail ainsi que ses compétences à l’interne.
