The HAC seeks funding to expand the position of Program Coordinator from half- time to full -time. This would provide support for growing ongoing operations and advance initiatives aimed at serving more diverse communities and improving long -term sustainability. The HAC faces a classic bootstrapping situation in a period of growth. Professional staff and equipment are needed in order to raise more funds, but funds are needed first to pay for the staff and equipment.
