LitTAP's Consulting Fund helps New York state literary presenters engage professional consultants in capacity-building efforts. Eligible literary presenting organizations may apply for up to $1,200 for a consultancy in areas such as development/fundraising, marketing, outreach, succession, board development, programming, etc.

Two grants are made each year. Applicants are encouraged to email an inquiry to dott@littap.org before completing full application to check current availability of grants.

Travel & Conference Fund
The Travel & Conference Fund offers very limited assistance of up to $500 to eligible literary presenting organizations within New York state to support attendance at professional development workshops, seminars and conferences.

Doctor's Hours
As part of the LitTAP's technical assistance program, Debora is available to consult with you on your issues of organizational capacity, such as program development, collaborations, board development, and planning.
