Webinar: Early Capital Planning Phases, September 24
Is your health center considering a renovation, expansion, or new site? The success of any capital project is determined long before the first blueprint is drawn.
The early planning phases -where strategic vision meets operational and financial reality – are the most crucial. This webinar will provide your leadership team with a proven framework to navigate this complex process, align your project with community need, and build a compelling case for funders.
Join Capital Link, a national nonprofit with over 30 years of experience guiding health centers through $1.6 billion in successful capital projects, for this essential deep dive into early-stage planning.
