Heritage Program Consultants, 2004

Consultants are available at no cost to assist organizations with project planning. A consultant plays an ongoing role in your project once the grant is awarded, offering advice and assisting in the final evaluation.

KHC recommends that you meet with a consultant prior to submitting your Heritage Program Final Application. Consultations requently take place by telephone or email.

Selecting Consultants

Choose a consultant according to the category of your project. If your project activities fall within multiple categories, you may need more than one consultant. Start by contacting an individual in the category most important to your project. Geographic proximity is desirable, but many consultants are willing to travel distances; always inquire at the very beginning if the consultant's schedule will allow time for him or her to meet with your group.

If you need help identifying the right consultant, contact the KHC staff. To find out about consultants who are not listed in the directory, please contact KHC before submitting your outline.

Review the consultant contact information.
