Hi all! Here are some notes on future
trainings and service projects that we
have been working on.

This info will help the new committee
taking over in February.

SERVICE PROJECTS:
Allie has scheduled the Habitat Build Day,
for March 20th. More than 50% of the members
already agreed to attend at the Jan. monthly
meeting, thus it will count as a service
project and possibly a way to honor
Cesar Chavez.

On that note- Thank you to Amanda! for
coordinating us for the MLK service project
and "Give a Day, Get a Disney Day". Next
meeting we should discuss if we would all
like to go to Disneyland as a group.

FUTURE POTENTIAL TRAININGS:

1.Another (more complete) Financial Literacy
-Training through "Community Housing Works"
(Allie's contact), "Legal Aid" (Amanda's
contact)or "San Diego Seminars" (Ari's
contact).

2. CPR and National Disaster Training.
-Lead generators Allie and Jana.

3. Conflict Resolution Training
-Amanda attended the 2 day training and is
coordinating a possible 1 day training.

4. Job Development/Case Management Training
-Lead generator Jana. This will probably be
a specific training for those interested
and that could use the skills for their site.

5. FAFSA/Educational Award Training
-This will probably be provided by Jana and
for those interested only.

6. Overcoming difficulties/developing
yourself at your site training
-Jana will coordinate inviting old AmeriCorps
members to present on topic.

7. Stipend and taxes information.
-Jana

8. The possibility of having a LISC
prominent board member come and speak to
group -Jana

9. Leadership/Public Speaking Training
Lead generator- Ari

ADDITIONAL NOTES:

All members- Check with your sites and
partner organizations for trainers and
speakers who are already doing presentations
and that could provide a valuable
training for us.

Amanda with support of AAA Team-
Creating a space in the forum to share
resources and contacts of service providers
for the members to share with each other.
I.e free tax preparation services.

All members- If you are interested in
expanding your public speaking abilities and
sharing your experience as a young professional
in the non-profit world with high school
students, please contact Ari.

NOTES FOR NEW COMMITTEE MEMBERS ON HOW TO
GO ABOUT SCHEDULING A TRAINING:

> 1. 3-4 weeks in advance contact trainer,
meet with them to dicuss what our
> needs are from their training, who the
audience being trained is and any
> materials that may need to be developed
by the training. I.e.: is this
> training for members to develop their
own skills or to hear about resources to
>take back to their clients/
worksite?
>All trainings should target low-income
groups.

> 2. 1-2 weeks in advance schedule trainer
for americorps meeting- work with
> meeting host to place trainer on agenda.
Be sure you and the trainer have
> a clear understanding of what the aim of
the training is.

And ta da! Have a happy second half of our
service year (almost)!
