What makes Edmonton's Human Services sector unique? How did it come to be that way it is? What can these lessons tell us about the future and what we should be doing now?

June 2015 Tabor 100's Community NewsletterTabor 100
Every month Tabor produces a newsletter that shares the latest information about what is going on in the Puget Sound region in regards to the minority and small business communities.
A quick snap shot of all that Tabor has accomplished in 2015. From meetings with the Governor and Mayor, to participating in city and government events. We hope to see you at our next Tabor meeting.
Invest In Inclusion or Invest in Exclusion: The Choice is Ours! Presentation ...LiveWorkPlay
When talking to the general public about disability and accessibility, this is often what comes to mind: they see a person in a wheelchair who cannot get through the door. These types of barriers remain of course, and I am sure right here in this city someone will go out looking for work tomorrow and experience this very same injustice. But today I want to talk about a different type of barrier, a different level of injustice: what if the very people and systems that are supposed to be supporting a person with a disability to have success in the community are deliberately investing in keeping them out of the community? What if they are discouraged from even trying to get through the door?
ALIF Partners led a five-month consultation with SLFN membership; this included talking circles, a listening campaign, and numerous meetings with Elders, youth and other members as well as Ft Smith officials, territorial, provincial and federal officials. Through these meetings and extensive research ALIF identified 80+ opportunities the band could move on and developed an easy to use tool that band could use to score opportunities.

Russian anarchist and anti-war movement in the third year of full-scale warAntti Rautiainen
Anarchist group ANA Regensburg hosted my online-presentation on 16th of May 2024, in which I discussed tactics of anti-war activism in Russia, and reasons why the anti-war movement has not been able to make an impact to change the course of events yet. Cases of anarchists repressed for anti-war activities are presented, as well as strategies of support for political prisoners, and modest successes in supporting their struggles.

Message from the President
Tabor 100 will once again be staging
its Annual Captains of Industry Gala
on Friday, September 15th
, at the
Seattle Waterfront Marriott. The 18th
Annual Gala will be one of our best.
Governor Jay Inslee will be part of our
distinguished panel, which will be moderated by
Shaunta Hyde, Managing Director, Community
Relations Alaska Airlines.
This year’s theme is “Shaping Our Destiny”. We
anticipate approximately 500 business
stakeholders, legislators and friends attending
this year’s event and we look forward to seeing
you there too. Your presence, along with our
distinguished guests, gives everyone a better
perspective of what Tabor is and why it is I
important. It is at times the first step in creating a
new relationship, and other times, it is the
deepening of long-standing relationships.
The proceeds from Tabor 100’s gala are used to
support:
• Tabor 100’s scholarship and grant programs.
• Events produced by Tabor 100 to assist its
business members with connecting with
public and private entities statewide. In
addition, the annual gala helps support Tabor
100’s mission and volunteer activities.
• The annual “Crystal Eagle” awards
ceremony. Tabor 100’s gala serves as a
platform to provide individual recognition to
people whose service exemplifies the
mission of Tabor 100.
With your support and participation in Tabor
100, we will remain poised to strategically and
positively impact the growth of Washington’s
small and diverse businesses. Your support
allows us to continue being the voice and the
advocates of the communities we serve. It
allows us to continue delivering valuable
services and resources to our members; and to
be a valued constituent representative in our
community’s civic affairs. With your help, we
can continue to do this great work. We would be
honored to have you as a Table Captain or a
Sponsor at our annual gala. Sponsorship of the
gala is a wonderful way to show your support of
Tabor 100’s mission.
A Special note to small and diverse businesses:
I urge you to engage with Tabor 100. The
benefits can be significant for your business
and membership is just the beginning. You
must also seek out and identify those who will
make your business stronger and help it grow.
Tabor has served as the platform for many
successful businesses. The next should be
yours!

We are pleased to present to you our 2017
Crystal Eagle Award winners that are to be
honored at the Gala.
This year's recipients are as diverse as the
Community we serve. We recognize the common
thread binding all these outstanding recipients-
courage, advocacy and an unwavering passion for
equity and access. They each have walked their
talk at huge professional and personal sacrifice.
We honor and thank them.
Lifetime Achievement:
Judge Richard Jones, United States District Court

His commitment to fairness and equity is
unsurpassed. In accepting this award Judge Jones
said: “Your recognition will serve as a powerful
reminder to me of the challenges before me and the
pathways I create with my duties as a judge.”
Economic Development:
Lance Lyttle, Port of Seattle Managing Director,
Aviation Division
Lance came to Seattle less than 2 years ago,
yet has changed the dynamic at Sea-Tac.
From day one, he has worked tirelessly to
provide more opportunity for minority business
in concessions and contracting.
Excellence in Public Service:
Mayor Marilyn Strickland, City of Tacoma
We honored her previously, but this is her final
year as Mayor and we want to reinforce our
support of her and send a strong message that her
leadership is a template for those who follow her.

outstanding and his commitment to minority

The commitment of these five individuals is outstanding and their
support for abolishing I-200 (including Commissioner Bowman
testifying in Olympia) is true leadership. Note from Commission
President Albro: “This award, I believe, will serve to encourage
the commission and port to press ahead until the tangible
outcomes match up with our collective hopes and desires.”
Agency Award:
Excellence in Diversity & Inclusion:
