## What the grant funds

The NEA seeks a Cooperator to manage the Local Arts Agencies National Cohort Program (LAANCP), a new initiative to broaden support to Local Arts Agencies (LAAs) by providing services such as dedicated coaching, virtual programming, access to on-demand resources, in-person convenings, networking, and peer learning activities. The NEA’s primary goals for this program are: 1) to build and strengthen a network of LAAs throughout the country and facilitate a multi-dimensional learning community for LAA leaders to exchange strategies and tools to respond to the field’s trends and learn from peers and the field’s experts; and 2) to offer resources and other assistance to LAAs based on best practices in the field.
