MRG Foundation's MIC Project (Maximizing Impact with Communications) helps MRG grantees use strategic communications to increase their numbers, deepen relationships and score more victories.
 
MIC was launched in fall, 2009, and assists current MRG grantees in a number of ways:

• Our website can now promote the stories and successes of MRG grantees: check out our Grantee profiles.
• Our website now includes a resource section for grantees that includes tools to help groups learn about communications for social change.
• We'll provide communication training and coaching to select MRG grantees through MIC workshops. The first workshop was in November, 2009. Grantees that participate in the workshop are receiving coaching in 2010 to help them build on the skills they've gained in the workshop.

As grantees develop and deepen their communications work, we'll look at what's the best way to support them over time.

If you are an MRG grantee and you have questions about MIC and how it can help your organization, feel free to contact Kathleen Pequeño.
