Event Description

Community Action Agency of New Haven (CAANH) is holding its 1st Passport to Prosperity Walk & Activity Day on October 4th at 419 Whalley Avenue, New Haven. The day kicks off with a 3 mile walk at 10am and continues with games, food, music and vendors until 4pm. The purpose for this event is to increase conversations and inspire action regarding opportunities and prosperity for low-income and working class families.

Passport to Prosperity is CAANH’s program that provides a network of comprehensive, client- centered services to CAANH's youth and families. The ‘passport’ serves as a catalyst for acquiring knowledge, skills, and partnerships that improve lives and helps clients move toward self-sufficiency.

The mission of CAANH is to offer pathways to prosperity to those in poverty in the Greater New Haven area through Service, Collaboration, Advocacy, and Knowledge Generation.

For more information on, or volunteer opportunities for the walk-a-thon, please call 203-387-7700, ext. 114, or go to walk@caanh.net

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.
