It is frequently the case in the reality of a modern day not-for-profit that research activities are put on the back burner, a result of an overworked staff struggling to keep up with client needs and funding realities. JPA can help with your research needs so that you can focus on utilizing the results of these projects. We can research and identify potential corporate, foundation, governmental and private funding prospects, conduct a needs assessment, prepare and administer surveys and evaluation instruments or customize our services to your needs.

Needs Assessments

In these challenging economic times, it is now more important then ever to identify and document the needs of the population you serve. With governments struggling to pay their bills, demand for foundation grants far out-pacing their grant making resources and individual donors becoming more selective in their giving patterns, the need to document the need for

your services is more important than ever. We can help you to develop the information necessary to make your case for a share of those dollars. Equally important, having current information on the needs of your clients will help to ensure that your organization and its programs can continue to be responsive to the needs of those you serve.
