Résumé
This 31-month project will address organizational capacity needs of The Enchanté Network to support its incorporation and expansion from coast to coast, strengthen its governance, develop and implement a communication strategy, work on partnership development, organize its founding national general meeting and provide micro grants to support the capacity building of LGBTQ2 centres and establishment of other centres across the country. The additional funding of $700,000 will allow for the continued expansion of the organization by further strengthening its communication practices, mobilizing and disseminating knowledge on its members' capacity, as well as providing them with micro-granting and supports services, and fostering the networking and collaboration between LGBTQ2 service centres. The organization will also join forces with Fierté Canada Pride and 2 Spirits in Motion Foundation to development joint policies, procedures and capacity-building programming, thereby strengthening the infrastructure of LGBTQ2 organizations across the country. The additional funding of $105,000 will allow for the development of a robust, long-term strategic plan and a broad overview of the Canadian 2SLGBTQ+ community organizations landscape. The organization will also refine its internal processes to support the needs of its expanding membership and update its branding, communications, and marketing practices accordingly. The “Centre in a Box” service, a one-stop-shop providing foundational information and resources, will also be created in response to its member organizations’ requests for capacity building resources.

Description (French)
Ce projet de 31 mois portera sur les besoins du réseau Enchanté en matière de capacité afin de soutenir son incorporation et son expansion d’un océan à l’autre, de renforcer sa gouvernance, d’élaborer et de mettre en œuvre une stratégie de communication, de travailler au développement de partenariats, d’organiser son assemblée générale nationale fondatrice et de fournir des microsubventions pour soutenir le renforcement des capacités des centres LGBTQ2 et l’établissement d’autres centres dans tout le pays. Le financement supplémentaire de 700 000 $ permettra de poursuivre l’expansion de l’organisme en poursuivant le renforcement de ses pratiques de communication, en soutenant la mobilisation et la diffusion de connaissances sur les capacités de ses membres, ainsi qu’en leur accordant des microsubventions et des services de soutien, et en favorisant le réseautage et la collaboration entre les centres de services LGBTQ2. L’organisme s’associera également à Fierté Canada Pride et à la Fondation 2 Spirits in Motion pour élaborer des politiques, des procédures et des programmes de renforcement des capacités conjoints, renforçant ainsi l’infrastructure des organismes LGBTQ2 du pays. Les fonds supplémentaires de 105 000 $ permettront l’élaboration d’un solide plan stratégique à long terme et d’une vue d’ensemble des organismes communautaires 2SLGBTQ+ au Canada.
