The Annie E. Casey Foundation 2011 Professional Development and Learning Series for New Haven Nonprofits

Source: http://www.caseyfamilyservices.org/resources/pubdetail/719/

The Annie E. Casey Foundation/Casey Family Services’ Professional Development and Learning Series is structured to help you and your organization get ahead by providing access to new skills and education that can expand your learning.

In 2011, the Learning Series continues to build on the Foundation’s approach to results accountability by offering training on how to introduce evidence-based practices into your agency programs. We believe a focus on implementing and adhering to evidence-based practice is a strong complement to our results framework, and will accelerate strengthening of local programs and services. We are seeing our emphasis on teaching results accountability starting to pay dividends as more New Haven nonprofits are moving to implement Results-based Accountability (RBA), and reporting improved understanding of program data and performance.

In addition to the training on evidence-based practice, other new topics include an intermediate session on writing federal grants, effective practices in case management, public policy advocacy, and a session on how to work effectively in teams. As you look through this catalog, we hope you see training opportunities that fit you and your organization.

In addition to our workshop series, we will continue the quarterly Lunch and Learn sessions.

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.

Mobile Home Residents in Washington State Are Calling the Shots After Buying Their Park

Manufactured housing, which 20 million Americans call home, is one of the few affordable housing options in the United States. The residents of two Washington State mobile home communities recently succeeded in purchasing their parks with help from ROC USA and over $2 million in financing from Rural LISC. As a result, they have been able to stabilize their housing costs, upgrade their communities and remain in the places they love.
