SUMMARY:Promise Neighborhoods Webinar
DESCRIPTION:The National Community Action Partnership is excited to announce a webinar on Tuesday\, April 30 at 3 ET/2 CT/1 MT/12 PT on the potential for Community Action Agencies to apply for upcoming grant competitions for the Department of Education’s Promise Neighborhoods and Full-Service Community Schools programs. Please join staff from the Department of Education and Westat to learn more about the programs\, eligibility requirements\, and how Community Action Agencies can participate. \nAs a place-based program\, a Promise Neighborhood is both a place and a set of strategies. Because of inequitable and exclusionary practices\, many people living in the footprint of a Promise Neighborhood have experienced economic distress and its consequences. These communities may face inadequate access to high-quality early learning opportunities\, struggling schools\, low rates of high school and college graduation\, high rates of unemployment\, high rates of crime\, and indicators of poor health. Nonprofit organizations\, institutions of higher education\, and Indian/Native American Tribes that receive U.S. Department of Education’s 5-year implementation grants serve as a backbone organization to anchor the Promise Neighborhood in a community. Grantees and community partners build a Promise Neighborhood as unique as the community itself. Learn more about Promise Neighborhoods here. \nFull-service community schools use a consortium of local education agencies and community-based organizations who work collaboratively with students’ families and leverage community-based resources to provide a tailored set of coordinated services and programs to a school community. Community schools meet student social\, emotional\, mental health\, and academic needs through after school and summer learning and enrichment opportunities\, as well as mental and physical health services. The four pillars of community schools include: integrated student supports that address out-of-school barriers to learning through partnerships with social and health service agencies and providers; expanded and enriched learning time and opportunities; active family and community engagement; and collaborative leadership and practices. Learn more about Full-Service Community Schools here. \nClick here to register for the webinar.

SUMMARY:Inaugural Cesar Chavez Commemoration Webinar
DESCRIPTION:Cesar Chavez Day is celebrated on March 31\, annually. It is also Cesar Chavez’s birthday. In 2014\, President Barack Obama declared Cesar Chavez Day a national holiday.

We’re excited to have Dr. Ann Lopez\, Executive Director of the Center for Farmworker Families\, MaríaElena De La Garza\, Executive Director of Community Action Board of Santa Cruz County\, Inc.\, and Laura Ponce\, Executive Director at Project BRAVO\, join us.
