ABOUT THE ALLIANCE
The CT Community Nonprofit Alliance (The Alliance) is the statewide association of community nonprofits in Connecticut. Our mission is to advance excellence in community-based nonprofits through advocacy and capacity building. We share the passion and purpose behind each and every organization’s mission and channel that purpose into a powerful, collective voice. We lead from a position of strength, representing nonprofits while presenting a united front before the Connecticut state legislature, state agencies, the public and the media. We advance strategies and public policies that make it possible for nonprofits to thrive. As the nonprofit funding landscape continues to evolve, The Alliance works closely on all fronts to empower nonprofits small and large to adapt, survive and thrive. The delivery of high quality, effective, and efficient services is a top priority.
 
STRONGER TOGETHER
Hundreds of community nonprofits across CT have joined forces as members of The Alliance. Our membership represents nonprofits across all categories, from Health and Human Service programs to Arts and Culture and beyond. Community nonprofits provide essential services to over half a million individuals and families in Connecticut every year, and employ 14% of Connecticut’s workforce, improving the quality of life in communities across the State. Together, we are much more powerful and influential than we can be as individual organizations.
 
2021 PUBLIC ART INSTALLATION
COMMUNITY MURAL PROJECT
One of the flagship events of The Alliance, is our Annual Nonprofit Conference. The event is the largest of its kind in Connecticut and draws an attendance of more than 600 nonprofit professionals & supporters. The 2021 Virtual Nonprofit Conference will take place December 7-9The Community Public Arts Installation Project was created as an opportunity for designated conference sponsors to support a creative representation of the conference theme: ‘Stronger Together.’
 
This opportunity will create a relationship between an arts organization or individual artist and the project sponsors, to commission a ‘mural’ (on canvas or canvas board) that captures the essence of the theme ‘Stronger Together.’ This opportunity is open to artists who are affiliated with a nonprofit organization/member of The Alliance. The final creation (or representation of the project in process) will be unveiled on the last day of the 2021 Annual Virtual Nonprofit Conference. The completed project will remain on exhibit at the Connecticut Nonprofit Center, Hartford, CT, with acknowledgment of the artist and sponsors.
