Letter of recommendation from victoria collier
Letter of recommendation from my mentor and Election Integrity Hero, Victoria Collier (author of revised edition of "VOTESCAM" and the HARPER'S MAGAZINE ARTICLE, "HOW TO RIG AN ELECTION": http://harpers.org/archive/2012/11/how-to-rig-an-election/

The societal & community value f11
The document discusses the societal and community value of informed citizenship. It covers how individuals and groups can work together through shared values, technical competence, self-knowledge, knowledge of others, listening, and sense of the whole. Citizenship implies active engagement and social responsibility to serve the community. Providing accurate information to others can help frame issues and enact social change.
Toni Strutz Collaboration
Collaboration is important for non-profits for several key reasons: it leverages assets and funding, increases efficiency, and helps organizations provide greater community services with new volunteers. When collaborating, organizations should partner with groups like local governments, community development corporations, funders, other non-profits, and more. Potential collaboration partners can be identified by attending community meetings, networking events, and looking through directories. Reaching out to local officials and maintaining contacts with state agencies can also help create new partnerships.

The document discusses whether the Internet increases, decreases, or supplements social capital. It outlines three views on the relationship between social capital and technology: that the Internet increases social capital by enabling new online relationships and communities; that it decreases social capital by distracting from true community; and that it supplements social capital by integrating into daily life. A 2000 survey found the Internet supplements network capital, increases participatory capital, but decreases community commitment. The conclusion raises questions about the balance of online and offline time and whether community commitment could disappear with implications for society.
EDH_Letters
This letter provides a recommendation for Edwin Dale Hahn. It summarizes that Mr. Hahn exhibited strong leadership skills and contributed positive solutions during his two years serving on the Thief River Falls City Council. Following his time on the council, Mr. Hahn worked on a housing task force, writing a successful grant application and lobbying the state legislature. As the chairman of the housing task force, his meetings were well-run and focused on outcomes. The letter also notes Mr. Hahn quickly learned about state housing programs and was able to network effectively.

Community fora aim to connect resources to issues by providing online spaces where community members can discuss local problems and potential solutions, and share information about services or organizations that may be able to help address the issues. These virtual gathering places allow residents to raise awareness of challenges facing their neighborhood and seek assistance from others, as well as help those with means to offer support become aware of ways they can contribute.
Slide12
Collaboration is key to success in today's world. James M. Day of The College of New Jersey discusses how fostering collaboration skills in students is important for their future careers and lives. By working together, students learn valuable soft skills like communication, problem solving, and social skills that will serve them well after graduation.

Mentor Denton is a program that addresses the need for 10,000 "at-risk" students in Denton's school district by recruiting community members as mentors. After brainstorming with the community, Mentor Denton worked with Communities in Schools to implement their mentoring process. Through social media outreach, Mentor Denton recruited 400 mentors within 2 weeks and 800 mentors after 5 months to work with at-risk students.

The UNT Council on Community Engagement created an advisory board made up of university personnel and community members from various perspectives to provide input. The board held a brainstorming session led by Jack Ricchiuto where they proposed multiple projects, one of which has seen great success.

The Division of Music Education is revising their undergraduate curriculum. Rather than the faculty deciding alone, they are creating an advisory group made up of alumni with teaching experience ranging from one to seven years and from rural, suburban, and urban school districts to provide input on the revisions.
Slide8
This document discusses the need for a framework to build and grow relationships and processes based on reciprocity. It references visits from Jack Ricchiuto about a summit on community engagement and provides two examples, one from music education and one from a university, to illustrate this.
Slide7
Community engagement takes many forms to strengthen the relationship between institutions and their neighbors. Universities in particular can partner with local schools through tutoring programs, providing educational resources, or allowing student teachers opportunities to gain experience. Cultural events or public lectures open to the community help share knowledge and bring people together.
Slide2
Community engagement requires establishing relationships and trust with community members. The process starts with learning about the community's history, culture, values and priorities from their perspective. Successful engagement involves frequent communication and collaboration between organizations and community members to create positive change.
Slide4
A new minor and Masters program in Arts Leadership has been established to provide student participation through internships and career ownership. There are two challenges - dedicating sufficient faculty time and resources to the new programs, as well as incorporating more service learning opportunities.
