Poverty Reduction Initiative Mentor Training - Ryan Hannon
The annual Mentoring Breakfast in Traverse City gave the Traverse Bay Poverty Reduction Initiative (PRI) an opportunity to present a program developed to help a variety of organizations in northern Michigan train mentors. The training covers the do's and don'ts of mentoring, setting boundaries, and understanding the culture of poverty. Watch the video to find out more.
The Networks Northwest team did a great job to help the City of Charlevoix and Charlevoix Township collaborate in addressing housing challenges in our community. They facilitated dialogue with Planning Commissioners, community stakeholders, and municipal officials to develop a plan for cohesive zoning in areas of growth for our two governments. Further, they were able to pinpoint the challenges in each unit and propose changes that would be beneficial all around. Together, we believe we'll be better prepared for housing developments and job growth in our region. We look forward to working with them on future projects!
