About the Collections Assessment Program 

"The Collections Assessment for Preservation (CAP) program provides small and mid-sized museums with partial funding toward a general conservation assessment. The assessment is a study of all of the institution's collections, buildings, and building systems, as well as its policies and procedures relating to collections care. Participants who complete the program receive an assessment report with prioritized recommendations to improve collections care. CAP is often a first step for small institutions that wish to improve the condition of their collections.

CAP is administered by FAIC under a cooperative agreement with the Institute of Museum and Library Services. Funding for each program year is subject to the availability of funds in the federal budget." - American Institute for Conservation
