This document summarizes a presentation on the impact of budget cuts to housing assistance programs. It discusses how the Budget Control Act led to automatic spending cuts (sequestration) that have significantly reduced funding for programs like housing vouchers. As a result, hundreds of thousands fewer families are receiving housing assistance. Advocates are urged to contact members of Congress to emphasize how cuts threaten efforts to end homelessness and ask that housing programs be prioritized in any budget deal. Restoring funding could help maintain assistance for vulnerable groups and prevent increased homelessness.

Targeting Support: Who Will Welfare Reforms Hit Hardest?
Speakers: Deven Ghelani, Policy in Practice, Guy Chaundy, Birmingham City Council
Event: Inclusion's IntoWork2015 Convention, Wed 15 July 2015, Queen Elizabeth II Conference Centre, London.
The speakers told attendees how data insights are helping reshape the distribution of scarce support resources for two large councils in England.
By analysing data they are collect the councils have gained valuable knowledge about the cumulative impact of welfare reforms on individual households in their respective areas.
What's more, those councils have also forecasted what the likely impact of future welfare reforms will be.
This means they know which households are most vulnerable to cuts, and which will be better off under Universal Credit.
Crucially, these insights allow them to therefore deliver support campaigns where they're most needed.
Deven Ghelani is the director of Policy in Practice, an organisation founded to ensure that policy works for people on the frontline. He was joined by Guy Chaundy from Birmingham City Council.
Income and volunteering challenges in the charity sector in 2023 PP.pdfFelixPerez547899
Price Bailey partnered with The National Council for Voluntary Organisations (NCVO) for a webinar that provided invaluable information on the trends in income and volunteering in the charity sector and the challenges that charities face in 2023 as a result.
As charities look to generate income and grow or maintain their volunteers to try and keep costs down, it is important to understand the wider economic climate and trends in this regard to inform your strategic thinking.
COVID-19 has created residents who are newly financially vulnerable and who will be looking to you for help in the near future. But who are these people, and what action can you take now to stop them falling into crisis? And, critically, how will your support services need to adapt?
As the pandemic continues to hit the financial resilience of many families, councils are looking ahead to what this means for collection rates, and whether their council tax support schemes can cope with increased demand.
In this webinar, Zoe Charlesworth summarised the latest and forthcoming policy updates which will drive the need for local authorities to redesign their CTR schemes, highlighting the importance of how understanding this context can assist scheme design.
Paul Howarth presented some key insights from our analysis on Understanding the Impact of Universal Credit on the Council Tax Reduction Scheme and Rent Arrears in Wales.
Dr Ben Fell shared details of our latest work on future modelling and how it can help you future-proof CTR schemes for local authorities.
Finally, Sally Sanders shared how working with Policy in Practice has helped Enfield Council model a new scheme to help protect residents from COVID-19 income shocks.
Listen back to hear:
- New analysis for the Welsh Government on the impact of Universal Credit on rent and council tax arrears
- How COVID-19 is expected to change your caseload, and what this means for your council tax support scheme
-Measures you can take to boost future collection rates and minimise arrears
In this Policy in Practice webinar Deven Ghelani and Louise Murphy were joined by Mark Fowler, Community Solutions Director for London Borough of Barking and Dagenham to talk about designing effective data-led local authorities.
Today's forward thinking local authorities are adopting a data led approach to deliver the highest quality, people-centred services for their residents. By applying smart analysis techniques to their data, councils are developing big ideas for change that are working in their areas.
In the latest of our webinars showcasing how public sector administrative data is being used for good, join us to hear how our guest speakers are using data to transform their organisations intelligently.

The document summarizes the findings of GL Hearn's 2014 Annual Planning Survey on accelerating housing delivery in London. Some key findings include:
- Major planning applications in London increased 32% from 2012-2013 to 2013-2014, rebounding from a post-recession dip.
- However, the average time for determining applications remained at 6 months, and applicants generally expressed dissatisfaction with length of the planning process.
- Stakeholders including planning authorities and applicants identified barriers like funding, demand, land shortages, and the planning system itself. Reforms were discussed but most felt the system still had significant problems.
- Further reforms were proposed to address delays, like reducing information requirements and strengthening pre-application

The C Suite, EAP and Organizational Mental HealthCG Hylton Inc.
How Managers Make a Difference in Organizational Health
EAP in the C Suite: Influencing Organizational Health.
The productivity of any organization is dependent on a number of factors: leadership, teamwork, engagement, morale, as well as employee well-being. The EAP, while concentrating on employee mental health and wellness, has the opportunity to link directly into adjacent areas. Why is it problematic? Not only do most organizations fear scrutiny, and change, but employees are mindful that the confidential EAP is there for the employees and their dependents, not so much the employer. They know the EAP is not a vehicle for rants or critiques of the organization, and above all else they are keen not to breach EAP confidentiality. So how does one square this circle?
Reaching beyond the traditional bounds of EAP requires imagination, courage, and a desire for change in organizational culture. Working closely with the Executive team or the Human Resource department, which is always committed to better engage staff and management, the EAP can provide certain baseline information to guide the engagement process. Without compromising confidentiality, the keystone of any EAP, the EAP can at intake or follow up, add in generic quality of workplace, engagement, and job satisfaction questions, where aggregated data to ensure confidentiality, would complement other data gathering processes.
In this way the EAP could serve as a thermometer of corporate health and wellness. Problematic areas could be defined in more detail with a larger employee sample, and further engagement processes with staff developed.
Through staff focus groups, interviews or other engagement sessions, the EAP could lead the charge about broadening the EAP from simply being a mental health and wellness program for employees to a broader mandate.
Traditional EAP clinical usage data, when married to organizational mental health data manifested in a myriad of files relating to critical incidents, lost time accidents, disability claims, prescription drug usage, employee satisfaction survey data, and other employer files, can yield a wealth of knowledge about how to improved employee and corporate health and wellness, along with the bottom line.
File management is key to managing the ever increasing forms, letters, documents, agreements, that flow within the organization. Learn how to do this effectively.
This document provides an overview of a conference on conflict resolution presented by Chris Hylton. Some key points discussed include understanding perceptions and root causes of conflict, learning from how animals avoid conflict through senses like smell, exploring Maslow's hierarchy of needs in relation to conflict, and introducing the "win-win" approach to conflict resolution through cooperative problem solving. Communication techniques for active listening and dealing with difficult emotions were also covered. The presentation addressed various types of conflicts such as those between employees and managers, with elected officials, youth, and between different cultures.
Chris Hylton, a benefits and HR consultant, gave a presentation on wellness and benefit planning. He discussed types of benefit plans like fully insured, ASO, and flex plans. Joint purchasing allows for more flexibility and customization of benefits. Benefit trends include rising drug costs, especially for biologics, and a focus on health and wellness programs to address chronic diseases and improve employee productivity. Carrier programs use electronic claims submission and audits to reduce costs. Flexible spending accounts and wellness initiatives were recommended.
The document discusses the benefits of exercise for mental health. Regular physical activity can help reduce anxiety and depression and improve mood and cognitive function. Exercise causes chemical changes in the brain that may help protect against mental illness and improve symptoms for those who already suffer from conditions like anxiety and depression.

These platforms offer a variety of content, including movies, TV shows, and original productions, allowing users to access content on-demand across multiple devices.The historical context covers the early days of streaming, starting with Netflix's inception in 1997 as a DVD rental service and its transition to streaming in 2007. The presentation also highlights India's television journey, from the launch of Doordarshan in 1959 to the introduction of Direct-to-Home (DTH) satellite television in 2000, which expanded viewing choices and set the stage for the rise of OTT platforms like Big Flix, Ditto TV, Sony LIV, Hotstar, and Netflix. The business models of OTT platforms are explored in detail. Subscription Video on Demand (SVOD) models, exemplified by Netflix and Amazon Prime Video, offer unlimited content access for a monthly fee. Transactional Video on Demand (TVOD) models, like iTunes and Sky Box Office, allow users to pay for individual pieces of content. Advertising-Based Video on Demand (AVOD) models, such as YouTube and Facebook Watch, provide free content supported by advertisements. Hybrid models combine elements of SVOD and AVOD, offering flexibility to cater to diverse audience preferences.
Content acquisition strategies are also discussed, highlighting the dual approach of purchasing broadcasting rights for existing films and TV shows and investing in original content production. This section underscores the importance of a robust content library in attracting and retaining subscribers.The presentation addresses the challenges faced by OTT platforms, including the unpredictability of content acquisition and audience preferences. It emphasizes the difficulty of balancing content investment with returns in a competitive market, the high costs associated with marketing, and the need for continuous innovation and adaptation to stay relevant.
The impact of OTT platforms on the Bollywood film industry is significant. The competition for viewers has led to a decrease in cinema ticket sales, affecting the revenue of Bollywood films that traditionally rely on theatrical releases. Additionally, OTT platforms now pay less for film rights due to the uncertain success of films in cinemas.
Looking ahead, the future of OTT in India appears promising. The market is expected to grow by 20% annually, reaching a value of ₹1200 billion by the end of the decade. The increasing availability of affordable smartphones and internet access will drive this growth, making OTT platforms a primary source of entertainment for many viewers.

CG Hylton 4
5. 200 years ago, were there
budgets in your communities?
CG Hylton 5
14. What is the solution?
Any ideas?
CG Hylton 14
15. BUDGET PLANNING
Is an attempt to divide up resources
across your community
Other speakers will get into the process
more
Budgets give life to Departmental
Workplans
But who is involved in deciding the
workplan budget?
CG Hylton 15
26. Common Question
How do we get more funding?
We have been doing a national series of
one day workshops on Effective Proposal
Writing
But negotiating the 5 year agreement is
key
27. What is CCP
Term used by INAC in 2004 for a process
to achieve community consensus around
various land and resource issues
Normally used for resolving land and
resource issues but useful in planning for
all areas
CG Hylton 27
29. Results
Protect resources. The community is able to
identify and protect vulnerable or valuable
areas, traditions, or cultural values and
practices.
Celebrate traditions and culture. The
cultural aspects of the community may be a
focus of the planning process.
CG Hylton 29
30. Promote Health and
Reconciliation
Planning helps the community to work
together to proactively address negative or
painful community issues by establishing a
positive vision for the future, and by taking the
steps necessary to achieve that vision.
CG Hylton 30
31. Create Economic
Opportunities
Identifying sustainable economic opportunities
is an essential part of creating a Comprehensive
Community Plan.
Having a plan in place will also help to attract
partners and new investment.
The strongest community development factor is
economic self-sufficiency
CG Hylton 31
33. Executive Summary
Negotiating agreements is always difficult
Your programs are geared to your population
numbers and demand which varies largely by age
You have detailed population data
You know your population ages one year each
year
You can develop programs effectively to meet the
changing demographics in your population
CG Hylton 33
34. Negotiating Strategy – You
will be able to say
all our projections are based on data we
obtain from government agencies
our staffing levels are based on meeting this
demand to meet your (agency) requirements
Here are our projected costs based on our
staffing costs
Here are our projected costs based on typical
staffing costs of a local town or municipality
CG Hylton 34
35. Negotiating Strategy (ctd)
All our programs and services are based on
terms and conditions for service which are
spelled out in our agreements with
government agencies
Our CCP has indicated our needs in great
detail
Our CCP tells us our community buys in
All of which gives more strength to your 5
year funding requests
CG Hylton 35
36. Current Situation
You work hard to come up with your best
estimate of what your community needs
for the next five year agreement
You get conflicting reports from
community
You have difficulty negotiating from a
position of strength
You receive an unworkable level of
funding
CG Hylton 36
38. CCP makes it easier for
Chief and Council to Lead
CCP gives your leadership information
about community needs
CCP gives your leaders information about
how your departments are planning on
meeting community needs
Data is king, use the data like any
business to effectively make your case
CG Hylton 38
39. What type of Data?
Your population Demographics
Current service offerings (supply or
potential supply of trained members)
Demand for trained workers
The gap
What you are planning on doing about it
reducing the gap
Yields how much your programs are going
to cost
CG Hylton 39
40. How does CCP support 5 year
Agreements?
• Shows what services exist now, what
services will be needed in the future
Gap analysis:
1. Encourages each department or service area to
develop business plans to meet the needs
2. Using data sources which you have and
perhaps are not using currently
3. Builds Commitment which in turn builds
community
CG Hylton 40
41. CCP Rationale
Provides support for First Nation communities in
meeting most service needs and indicates areas
which require strengthening
Departments perform a self-assessment as part
of the business planning process
Community and First Nations will agree upon
areas of greatest need to develop a service
delivery plan tied to 5 year Budgets
Delivery over a five year period will be
completed in concert with community
expectations

What is comprehensive community planning?Comprehensive community planning is a holistic process undertaken with broad community participation. A comprehensive approach:enables the community to establish a vision for its future and implement projects to achieve this visionhelps to ensure that community projects and programs are thought through, make sense and are the best use of resourcesintegrates and links all other plans the community has produced Processes that are driven by the community, for the community are most effective at achieving positive change. That's why the comprehensive community planning process is inclusive and represents the perspectives of all members, whether they reside within or outside the community. All members of the community, including Elders, youth, and family representatives, can offer unique and valuable perspectives on community needs, values and priorities.A comprehensive community plan addresses key planning areas, all of which are interrelated and interdependent: governance, land and resources, health, infrastructure development, culture, social issues, and the economy. Consideration of all key planning areas through one unified process defines community planning as a holistic and integrated exercise that can lead to sustainable development.
Protect resources. The community is able to identify and protect vulnerable or valuable areas, traditions, or cultural values and practices. Celebrate traditions and culture. The cultural aspects of the community may be a focus of the planning process.
Promote healing and reconciliation.
