Next Stetson Campaign: Upcoming Events!

Something exciting is happening in our community - Stetson Library is preparing to move into a new home in the Dixwell Q House. As a cornerstone of the reimagined community center, the new Stetson Library will enjoy a 60% increase in space and feature an expanded collection of books and materials, improved and enhanced services, state-of-the-art technology and hands-on learning equipment to better serve the evolving needs of New Haven's residents.

Mark Your Calendars: Online Giving Day is November 3
On November 3 giveGreater.org will feature the New Haven Free Public Library Foundation and the Stetson Campaign in an exclusive Online Giving Day, and the Community Foundation for Greater New Haven will cover the costs of credit card fees on the first $5,000 raised that day! Plus, all gifts between $50 - $10,000 will be matched dollar for dollar thanks to a generous challenge grant from the Seedlings Foundation. Visit www.nextstetson.org to learn more, and don't forget to donate at bit.ly/nextstetson this Friday, November 3!

Then, join us the following day to see your gift in action at the Q House Groundbreaking Ceremony on Saturday, November 4 at 11:00am! Following the groundbreaking and speaking program, we invite you to celebrate with fellow Q House advocates across the street at Stetson Library.

New Report: A Close Look at the Reality of Community Violence Interrupters

Dr. Kathryn Bocanegra and Dr. Shani Buggs, eminent researchers and experts on the work of community violence intervention, have published, together with LISC, Supporting the Frontline Through Community Healing: Advancing Science on Violence Intervention Outreach and Trauma Exposure. The study, focused on safety efforts in Kansas City, MO, is a deeply researched and compassionate look at the trauma CVI workers confront every day and how to support the field so that practitioners “are protected from the same harms they work to prevent.”

“A Gateway for Possibilities”: Resident Leadership and Community Ownership

LISC's Institute for Community Power has published a new Spotlight examining three leadership development programs designed and implemented by LISC and local partners for distinct communities in different parts of the country: Training the Trainers (T4T) in Houston; the Newark Resident Leadership Academy (NRLA); and Community Connectors in Philadelphia. Each group has leveraged the leadership program to inform and strengthen their work and, in turn, to serve their communities more effectively.

As a result, they have been able to stabilize their housing costs, upgrade their communities and remain in the places they love.
