Instead of focusing on short-term fixes, The Courage Collaborative helps organizations build a multi-year strategic plan for sustainable funding and long-term impact.  On-going relationship development and communication with potential funders as well as an awareness of evolving infrastructure needs within the organization are key elements that support sustainability and organizational growth.
