An Executive Committee has been established; a Program Advisory Committee and Fund Development Committee are in the process of being formed . These committees are designed to enhance the work of MCC and to involve the member institutions in MCC activities. A rough draft of MCC bylaws has been developed and is being circulated to the MCC Executive Committee with the intention of having the bylaws approved at the next Council of Presidents meeting on May 14. The Council of Presidents meeting on May 14 is being hosted by The Kresge Foundation and being held at the Detroit Renaissance Club. Venture Grants The MCC Venture Grant Cycle 14 opened on February 17, 1997, and closes on April7, 1997. Approximately $11 ,000 is available for Venture Grants this cycle. Financial awards will range up to $2,500. Faculty, staff, and students from MCC member institutions are eligible to apply. The selection committee will meet during the week of April 21-25 to make decisions on recommendations for funding . Final approval will be made by the Council of Presidents at their semi-annual meeting on May 14. Annual Student Recognition Ceremony The 1997 Student Recognition Ceremony will be held on Saturday, April12 at 6:00p.m. at the Kellogg Center in East Lansing. Nomination forms were sent to all MCC community service coordinators, presidents, faculty representatives, and SCAN members. Applications and a cover letter were sent to nominated individuals. A selection committee comprised of staff and students reviewed the applications and award recipients were named. Five "Outstanding Community Impact Award" recipients and seventeen "Commitment to Service Award" recipients will be honored at the awards ceremony. Applicants that did not receive either of these awards were sent the "Heart and Soul Award" certificate and letter in the mail. Presidents' Leadership CoUoquium The Presidents' Leadership Colloquium (PLC), sponsored by the national Campus Compact was held on February 22-23, 1997 at the Grand Hyatt Hotel in Washington, DC immediately preceding the ACE (American Council on Education) Annual Meeting. This year' s theme was "Colleges and Universities As Citizens: Connecting Higher Education and Communities." The PLC assembled Campus Compact presidents from around the country to share strategies for enhancing their institutions' commitment to civic engagement and citizenship via a renewed commitment to community service. The speakers were Jeremy Rifkin, John Kretzman, and Ed Zlotkowski. The Thomas Ehrlich Award recipient was Richard Kraft from Colorado State University. The panel of past Howard Swearer recipients included Monisha Kumar (one of three �on the panel), a University ofMI graduate, and one oflast year' s MCC Outstanding Community Impact Award recipients. Poster Contest MCC and the Michigan Community Service Commission co-sponsored a poster contest to promote community service and service learning in higher education in Michigan. Each MCC community service coordinator received information about the contest and were asked to publicize the contest on their campuses. The judging for the poster contest occurred on February 27. The quality of submissions was incredible. The winning poster entry will be unveiled at the Governor' s Community Service Awards program on May 8, 1997. Service Leadership Camp 1997 Service Leadership Conference, "Each One, Reach One," will be held Friday, September 12 through Sunday, September 14, 1997 at the YMCA Storer Camp in Jackson, MI. The Leadership Camp is designed to provide an opportunity for campuses to develop their community service plans for the upcoming school year and develop their leadership teams. COOL Conference The Campus Outreach Opportunity League (COOL) held their national conference on Friday, March 13 - Sunday, March 16, 1997 at Cleveland State University in Cleveland, OH. Students from across the state attended this conference. Each community service coordinator received conference registration information from COOL. MCC did not sponsor a bus this year due to the fact that Cleveland is such a short drive for everyone. SCAN did a great job presenting a session at the conference on creating state-wide student networks. MCC Summer Break Dave Waterhouse (U of M) proposed a new Summer Break initiative that will be sponsored by MCC. This program will address the need that some students/staff have to get together and network during the summer. Since the MCC Service Leadership Camp will be held in September this year, the Summer Break concept will allow anyone interested to do a state-wide service project sometime during the summer months. Faculty Institute on Service Learning The Faculty Institute on Service Learning will occur in the fall of 1997 and will be hosted by the University of Michigan. The tentative focus of the conference will be on research and assessment. The purpose of the Institute is to bring faculty and staff together to learn about service learning that occurs in an academic setting. The Faculty/Staff Service Learning Award recipients will also be recognized in conjunction with the conference. Community Service Coordinator Meeting The last two meeting ofthe year will be from 10:00 a.m. to 2:00p.m. on Monday, April7, 1997 at the Kellogg Center in East Lansing and Friday, June 13, 1997 at Andrews University. �Curriculum Development Committee A working group of the Curriculum Development Committee will meet on Friday, April 11 , 1997 for a one day retreat to work on creating a service learning curriculum that will be shared with other faculty in the state to be used as a training and development tool. Student Community Action Network The next SCAN meeting will occur on Friday, April 11 , at Davenport College in Grand Rapids from 5:30p.m. to 8:30p.m. Along with the business that is discussed at this meeting, the host institution has provided an opportunity for those interested to stay the night and participate in a campus service project the next day. ref:a :mcc.rpt �Michigan Campus Compact Annual Recognition Ceremony 1997 Award Recipients Outstanding Communitv Impact Award This award is given to 5 students in recognition of their outstanding contributions in service.

Michigan's New Partnerships VISTA project is administered by the Michigan Nonprofit Association in partnership with the Council of Michigan Foundations and the Michigan Community Service Commission. PROGRAM FOCUS: In six areas of the state, VISTAs will support the New Partnerships concept for community problem solving, through communication, citizen action and collaboration among private, nonprofit, and government sectors. VISTA efforts will strengthen inter-sector partnerships and support citizendriven community solutions particularly related to school success and to youth development during non-school hours. LOCATIONS: Three AmeriCorps*VISTA volunteers will work in each of the six areas (centered, but not limited to that town): Jackson, Muskegon, Detroit, Roscommon, Saginaw, and Marquette. FOCUS GOALS: • To assist in collaborative community strategic planning for service and volunteerism. • To assist local collaboratives in developing their own program capacity and alternative funding sources. • To develop community "asset maps," link new partners, and recruit volunteers to meet identified needs. • To facilitate the development of service learning and other community service opportunities, especially in the form of"one-stop shopping" models for comprehensive community-based program services.

The program title, ConnectAmericaTM, was taken from remarks by former Michigan governor, George Romney. Romney often talked about "reconnecting our communities through service" and connecting individuals of diverse backgrounds to work together to solve community problems. Under the leadership of the Michigan Nonprofit Association and the Michigan Community Service Commission, Michigan has started the planning process to initiate a similar concept of connecting citizens in the great state of Michigan. Using the New Partners initiative as a starting point, ConnectMichiganTM will attempt to bring together the leadership of the three major sectors of society, the public, private, and nonprofit sectors, at the state level and in communities. ConnectMichigan'sTM mission statement is: "To increase connection among individuals, organizations, and communities in Michigan through community service that works to solve critical social problems." In order to accomplish this connection at the local level, we propose creating a state steering committee of 12-15 leaders throughout Michigan. The attached diagram illustrates the subsector focus that we propose for ConnectMichigan'sTM leadership. In each of the sub sector listings we have suggested an organization that would represent the interests of that group in the steering committee. Once the leadership ofConnectMichiganTM is in place, we propose hosting two to three steering committee meetings in the next 12 menths. The first meeting will be conducted in late 1996 and will focus on developing the 1997 plan for ConnectMichiganTM. It is our hope that in this meeting we can agree upon the ConnectMichiganTM mission statement, gamer the public support of each of the steering committee members for the ConnectMichigan™ effort, and identify in each subsector of the ConnectMichiganTM structure two to three communities or programs that will serve as potential models of connecting citizens in communities throughout the state.

I'CII/ I ppl �ConnectMichigan™ Overview This October, the Points of Light Foundation in Washington, DC will be launching a national effort to improve communities throughout our nation by encouraging millions of Americans to participate in volunteer service. The program title, ConnectAmerica™, was taken from remarks by former Michigan governor, George Romney. Romney often talked about "reconnecting our communities through service" and connecting individuals of diverse backgrounds to work together to solve community problems. Under the leadership ofthe Michigan Nonprofit Association and the Michigan Community Service Commission, Michigan has started the planning process to initiate a similar concept of connecting citizens in the great state of Michigan. Using the New Partners initiative as a starting point, ConnectMichigan™ will attempt to bring together the leadership of the three major sectors of society, the public, private, and nonprofit sectors, at the state level and in communities. ConnectMichigan' s™ mission statement is: "To increase connection among individuals, organizations, and communities in Michigan through community service that works to solve critical social problems." In order to accomplish this connection at the local level, we propose creating a state steering committee of 12-15 leaders throughout Michigan. The attached diagram illustrates the subsector focus that we propose for ConnectMichigan' s™ leadership. In each of the sub sector listings we have suggested an organization that would represent the interests of that group in the steering committee. Once the leadership ofConnectMichigan™ is in place, we propose hosting two to three steering committee meetings in the next 12 months. The first meeting will be conducted in late 1996 and will focus on developing the 1997 plan for ConnectMichigan™. It is our hope that in this meeting we can agree upon the ConnectMichigan™ mission statement, gamer the public support of each of the steering committee members for the ConnectMichigan™ effort, and identify in each subsector of the ConnectMichigan™ structure two to three communities or programs that will serve as potential models of connecting citizens in communities throughout the state.

This will strengthen bonds with member organizations beyond the executive director level and provide technical assistance. MNA is currently in the process of establishing an 800-number. MNA should review its member benefits and services to determine specifically what benefits members find valuable. MNA sent surveys to all members in October requesting more detailed information on what MNA services they use. The results from this survey, and the telephone survey completed by FERA, will be utilized to find what benefits members deem valuable. MNA needs to have more contact with the staff of the member organization. Often, when an organization does not renew, it is because the person that originally signed up for membership has left the organization. MNA has started to contact all organizations at the mid-point of their membership to touch base with the members and verify name and address information. Members will also be called one month prior to their renewal date and within one week after they renew. There needs to be a board-driven, staff assisted campaign to recruit new members. � Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.

Welcome and Introductions Cochairs J. Rapanos and D. Marvin welcomed committee members and staff and recognized new committee members. Members present introduced themselves. J. Rapanos and D. Marvin expressed their appreciation to everyone for their interest and participation. 2. Review Roles of CMF and MNA as Cosponsors S. Katt reviewed the historical development of the Grantmakers/Grantseekers Seminar. She expressed that the partnership between CMF and MNA continues to be successful in bringing together grantmakers and grantseekers. 3. Overview of Committee Member Responsibilities A. Osbome highlighted the committee member responsibilities listed in the Guide for Planning Committee Members. 4. Review GGVin Evaluation* A brief overview of the GG VIII evaluation results were presented by A. Osbome. She noted that the evaluations serve as an excellent guide for future planning. The evaluation forms showed that the keynote speaker and content of breakout sessions are important for a successful conference and good attendance. This is especially important since attendance was down last year. 5. Discuss Selection of Keynote Speaker J. Rapanos led the discussion about keynote speaker selection. The list of past keynote speakers was summarized by S. Katt. It was noted that Betty Beene, president of United Way of America, and Stephen Covey, author, were currently being pursued as keynote speakers. Committee discussion included the importance of having two keynote speakers representing a national and state focus. It was also noted that foundations and corporate sponsors could be helpful in absorbing speaker fees. The committee expressed the ideas that the keynote speaker should have name recognition, be motivational and have a message that is applicable for attendees. S. Katt also suggested the idea of bringing in a keynote speaker via satellite. �The following names were suggested as potential GGIX keynote speakers: 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6. 7. 8. 9. 10. 11. 12. 13. 14. Steven Covey Betty Beene Michelle Engler Michael Ground Ed Barlow Frances Hesselbem Peter Block David Whyte Lou Holtz Paul Harvey MikeUtley Bud Hodgkins Marian Wright and/or Peter Edelman Frances Lappe and Paul DuBois It was agreed that CMF and MN A would work on securing a speaker before the November 20th meeting. At that time, the committee will be updated on their progress. 6. Discuss Conference Format and Sessions J. Rapanos reviewed the list of sample breakout topics suggested by past conference participants and staff. The committee agreed that the breakouts should incorporate the Creating A Shared Vision theme by having a grantmaker and grantseeker present at each session. They also decided that it was important to decrease the number of breakout sessions from 16 to 12. Another committee suggestion included adding a section to the brochure identifying breakout sessions as being beginning, intermediate or advanced levels. Other recommendations included having a keynote speaker during lunch, increasing the time allotted for exhibitors, having a gathering place for participants to share information and structuring the networking reception differently. It was decided that specific format and logistics decisions would be made at the November 20th meeting. After discussion, the committee developed the following list of breakout topics and committee member coordinators. Suggested Breakout Sessions: Topic Host Memberfs) Meet the Grantmakers Board Development/Assessment Strategic Planning/Bylaws Public Policy/Educating Legislators Total Quality Management (Part I and Part II) Technical Assistance Grant Proposals Media Preventing Burnout Evaluation (Part I and Part II) M.

Grill noted if committee members had any suggestions on potential sponsors or exhibitors to contact her. 8. Review Planning Calendar D. Marvin reviewed the planning calendar noting that future committee meetings, including the next meeting on November 20th, will be at the Kellogg Center in East Lansing from 9:30 a.m -11:30 a.m. It was suggested that a flip chart be provided at the meetings.

Individual staff members have specific accountability for each project and have developed objective statements for their teams. Below are a list of teams and objectives categorized by the staff person in charge of each team. A brief status report on each team is included. David Egner Nonprofit Capacity Building and Training Objective: To improve the efficiency and effectiveness of Michigan's nonprofit organizations by working with nonprofit management service organizations and institutions of higher education to provide needed curriculum and training on issues related to nonprofit management and program activities. Activities: We are currently working with the four management service organizations (MSO)'s: Direction Center in Grand Rapids; the Accounting Aid Society in Detroit; Nonprofit Enterprises at Work in Ann Arbor; and the Nonprofit Alliance in Battle Creek; to strategize a state plan for nonprofit technical assistance. A proposal was submitted to the Aspen Institute this summer to study the training needs of nonprofit organizations above the Bay City/Muskegon line in Michigan's lower peninsula and the nonprofits in Michigan's upper peninsula. Additionally, the Aspen proposal provided an opportunity to research a variety of technologies in delivering training through distance learning techniques. We will leam of the Aspen Institute's interest in this proposal by mid-November. A similar proposal was submitted to AmeriTech and focused on the needs of community arts organizations. This proposal, again submitted with the MSO's, also included the use of distance learning technology in six demonstration sites. We will hear from AmeriTech in November as well. In the area of higher education, the Council of Michigan Foundations and the President's Council State Universities of Michigan have just released a publication titled "Nonprofit Management Training Resource Catalog.1" This pamphlet highlights the existing curriculum and training programs for nonprofit organizations that are provided by higher education institutions throughout the state. Michigan State University has asked MNA to work with a team of faculty members to develop a proposal to create a virtual university for nonprofit organizations. We will provide further details on this project as they become available. �Public Policy Objective: To create a greater understanding among elected and appointed officials and the public about the role of nonprofit organizations and volunteerism in a civil society. To work with nonprofit organizations to take a pro-active stand on public policy issues that broauly effect Michigan's nonprofit sector. See the Public Policy Committee report (Attachment 9). Retirement Objective: Activities: To develop a retirement program for Michigan nonprofit organizations that offers a competitive return and competitive fee structure. Discussions continue with MetLife about the development of MNA's retirement program. Currently, John McKendry, our legal counsel in this matter, is meeting with legal counsel from MetLife and FasCor, the third party administrator that works closely with MetLife. Documents should be completed for signature in the next few weeks. MNA's retirement program will finally be in the marketplace by January 1, 1997. Nonprofit Technology Objective: To improve the capacity of nonprofit organizations in Michigan by increasing their access to technology and the information that can be delivered through technology vehicles.

In Michigan there are over 40,000 nonprofit organizations that are responsible for much of what we consider the quality of life in our communities. Nonprofit organizations provide more than half of our state's health care, nearly twelve percent of its education, an increasing number of social services, most of our arts and culture, and all of the religious and spiritual aspects of life.1 Often the contributions of nonprofit organizations are taken for granted, but they touch everyone regardless of race, creed, gender, social or economic condition. Economically, Michigan's nonprofit sector has a tremendous impact on our state and local communities. When measured as a part of personal consumption expenditures of the gross national product, the nonprofit sector accounts for 19.6 percent of all services performed.2 In 1992, nonprofits in Michigan contributed an estimated 15.5 billion dollars in services and stimulated an additional 16.7 billion dollars in equivalent community service volunteer efforts.3 Nonprofit organizations in Michigan employ more than 270,000 people, accounting for approximately six percent of the Michigan work force. When the volunteer equivalent employees are added, nonprofit employment jumps to more than ten percent of total employment in our state. The nonprofit sector has been the fastest growing employment category in Michigan. It has increased at a rate five times greater than any other employment category in the 1980's. The nonprofit sector has accounted for more than 20 percent of the net jobs gained in the state of Michigan in the last fifteen years.4 Devolution, the shift of funds and responsibility from federal government to state government and, eventually, to local bodies of government will increase the important role that nonprofit organizations have played in Michigan communities. Shifts in funding and responsibility will result in a number of communities developing models for community action and problem solving that will depend upon public/private/nonprofit partnerships and increased services from community-based nonprofit organizations. Unfortunately, nonprofits in general are not prepared for the increased responsibility that is forthcoming. The majority of nonprofit organizations, because of scarce resources or geographic isolation, have limited access to the curriculum, training and networks necessary to meet community needs and develop an ethic of collaborative problem solving. In order to meet this pressing need to empower nonprofit organizations and prepare them for the increased accountability that they will face in our communities, capacity building systems and networks must be developed. Nonprofit organizations must have opportunities to participate in education and training programs, to network with like organizations facing similar challenges, to increase utilization of technology in program �and service delivery, and to increase access to information directly impacting the organization's effectiveness and efficiency. Currently, there are a number of efforts that are attempting to institutionalize the use of technology in the delivery of specific services. Two examples of these activities include the Nonprofit America project, a partnership at the federal level that will utilize technology to deliver public policy information, and ComNet, a server on the University of Michigan campus designated for low cost utilization by human service nonprofit organizations. Unfortunately, these examples, as well as others, are limited in their abilities to deliver much needed services to nonprofit organizations. There is a need to develop a more comprehensive technology-based model for delivering training, information and networking opportunities to nonprofit organizations. The Michigan Nonprofit Association (MNA) is proposing a partnership with Michigan State University (MSU) to develop four demonstration models of technology-based service delivery to nonprofit organizations. Using Volunteer Centers of Michigan (VCM), the association representing Michigan's 27 volunteer centers , MNA proposes the development and observation of four distinct models that will serve as a guide for the future development of nonprofit technology delivery systems in Michigan. Proposed Demonstration Model MNA is proposing a working partnership with Michigan State University (MSU) to develop four types of technology-based delivery systems that will be piloted and tested in Michigan's Volunteer Centers. Because of their common purpose and activity, the Volunteer Centers will provide a comparable set of outcomes that will serve as a measure of the effectiveness of each of the four delivery systems. Additionally, the Volunteer Centers operate in communities that represent Michigan's diversity and culture. Volunteer Centers are located in our state's most rural and most populated areas. The divergence of budget and staff size of the 27 Volunteer Centers portrays Michigan's nonprofit sector. The four delivery systems proposed range from a basic on-line service subscription to an University supported server connecting four to six Volunteer Centers. (See the attached diagram) The variety of the types and amount of services offered through the four delivery models will permit MNA and MSU to document, over the course of one year, the most cost effective and efficient means of utilizing technology to build the capacity of community-based nonprofit organizations. The documentation will lead to a strategic plan to develop the technological capabilities of key community-based nonprofit organizations; resulting in increased services, partnerships and innovative community problem solving. The attached diagram illustrates the four proposed delivery models. The "Buick" System is based on the existing Intermediate School District (ISD) model operating at MSU. Working with MSU faculty and staff the system will provide four to six Volunteer Centers �with a nearly full service model of technology-based training, networking, conference capabilities, Web page design, Internet access, and hardware and software support. The Extension Supported System will be supported in four to six communities by the MSU Cooperative Extension staff. The sites for this delivery system will be selected based on the current technological expertise in the Cooperative Extension offices. The Higher Education Partnership System will attempt to develop collaborative partnerships with four to six colleges and universities. The support provided by the institutions will vary based on their commitment to the development of the demonstration model. However, a minimum commitment of staff assistance and technology access will be determined in the project's planning stage. America Online (AOL) subscriptions will be provided in the fourth and final delivery system. The Volunteer Centers participating will receive only a basic personal computer system and limited training on the AOL system. MNA's needs from MSU MNA, working cooperatively with MSU, will pursue funding and will provide administrative support for the project. We are requesting the assistance of MSU in the project planning and proposal development process. Specifically, MNA is requesting that MSU provide a full-time technology intern for a minimum of four months. Additionally, we are requesting office space and equipment for the intern. The intern will survey the Volunteer Centers to determine their current technological capabilities. This survey will include but not be limited to: an assessment of each Volunteer Center's hardware and software needs; an appraisal of Volunteer Center staff training needs; analysis of the needed training and services that will be provided through each delivery system; and evaluating the ability of Cooperative Extension offices and potential college and university partners to provide technical support. Upon the completion of the survey, the intern will be responsible for developing an equipment and software budget for the project, and will assist in the writing of funding proposals.

The program will allow undergraduates to experience an elementary classroom and teach the need for all scientists to remain involved with the public in service activities. •Calvin College: Servant Leadership Academy - The purpose of the Servant Leadership Academy is to help student leaders of campus service initiatives develop their understanding of community leadership and increase their team leadership skills. At least 13 students will participate in the leadership academy. They will create ten or more projects in partnership with community organizations which will involve more than 200 other Calvin students. •Central Michigan University: Eyes to the Future: A Model Collaborative - This will be a unique collaboration involving middle school students and CMU preservice students in service learning. This project will encourage 180 seventh graders from a rural, under-served community to start developing career goals. CMU preservice teachers will also gain experience in providing community service via the classroom. The project will result in an implementation and management manual for replication at other schools. •Eastern Michigan University: Academic Service Learning Longitudinal Study - A longitudinal study will be conducted to measure the long-term impact of academic service learning on students' learning and civic awareness. Community agency representatives, faculty members, and students will collaborate to design the survey which will capture specific data pertaining to academic service learning courses. A final report and subsequent findings will be shared in the form of a journal article or presentation. •Eastern Michigan University: Academic Service Learning Training Model - Faculty, students and community members will collaborate to design a training module which will serve as an educational tool about academic service learning. The module will explain the necessary "next steps" towards including an academic service learning component as a part of a curriculum. This training module will be piloted with nigh school, community college and university faculty. •Kalamazoo College: Migrant Worker Camp Project - The Social Justice Committee will collaborate with other student organizations on the Migrant Worker Camp Project. These groups will provide tutoring opportunities to children and interested adults; a constructive play time for smaller children; and assistance to adults needing help translating written materials. The long-term goal of the project is to demonstrate the need for partnership when working toward social justice. �•Lake Superior State University: Student Volunteer Bureau - The purpose of the Bureau is to encourage students to participate in on-going volunteer assignments in the community; assess the specific needs of the local community; work with community civic leaders to identify appropriate service placements for the students; establish a structure to place interested students with community agencies; provide general training for all student volunteers; and promote campus volunteerism. The Bureau will consolidate all community service efforts on campus into a central, student-driven organization which will encourage more students to participate in service activities. •Michigan State University: Access to Community Service & Internship Information Via The World Wide Web - The Service Learning Center provides MSU students, faculty and staff with information about local, national and international internship and community opportunities. The proposed Access to Community Service & Internship Information Via the World Wide Web project would allow the Service Learning Center to make this information available via electronic communication (World Wide Web). Accessibility to this information would dramatically increase as students throughout Michigan continue to use the Internet. •Oakland Community College: Service Learning Ambassadors - A group of students from Oakland Community College, Eastern Michigan University, and the University of Michigan will be trained to become Service Learning Ambassadors. The Ambassadors will use their newly acquired knowledge to mentor a group of high school students and prepare them for life after high school. This group will identify and prioritize areas of need within their community and develop and implement service projects to address these needs. •Olivet College: Three Networks - The goal of the Three Networks project is to enlist three synergistic, overlapping networks to establish a model community/service learning office at Olivet College. The three networks that will serve collectively as the primary implementation agents for the program are: 1) an internal network of faculty, staff, and students; 2) a professional network of project directors; and 3) a community advisory group. •Western Michigan University: Saturday's Kids - This project will bring children from one neighborhood together with young adults from another neighborhood to allow them to teach, learn, encourage, and bond with each other. Students from WMU, Kalamazoo College and Kalamazoo Valley Community College will go twice a month to the Kalamazoo Boys and Girls Club to provide social and educational programming for the children. Students will be asked to reflect on the service experience within the framework of their academic learning. •Western Michigan University: "Healing Racism": Training for Community Service - Four colleges and two high schools will collaborate on a series of workshops to improve multicultural awareness and create a cadre of trained facilitators to provide services to additional educational institutions and community organizations. Once trained, these facilitators will be able to conduct the workshops throughout the community and educational institutions in the Kalamazoo region. � Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.
