Direct Preservation Planning Assistance:

• Historic Resource surveys: this includes surveys of a town's historic resources, or surveys of a type of resource, such as barns, mills, modernist architecture in the state, etc.
• State and National Register of Historic Places nominations.
• Structural and engineering analyses of historic resources.
• Historic Structures Reports

Organizational Development and Program Support:

• Projects or plans that strengthen the organizational structure and direction of an organization whose mission is directed to community preservation, including governance, financial management, fundraising, staffing.
• Preservation projects that have potential to connect with larger/broader preservation efforts or plans in a community.
• Projects or programs that add to the technical expertise of preservationists or a collaborative group.

The Historic Preservation Technical Assistance Grant Line is a partnership of the Connecticut Trust for Historic Preservation and the Connecticut Humanities Council, with funding from the Connecticut State Legislature.
