| 1.A. Percentage of training program/leadership class graduates who participate in and serve
on the boards of directors of organizations serving the community. Even more important than training is using the skills and information gained. When people trained in group processes and facilitation take an active role in community organizations, these groups will be more effective and a wider audience will be exposed to the value of effective organizational methods. |
Universities, community colleges, churches, cooperative extension, businesses, community organizations | Review enrollments and match with organization memberships, and/or phone, mail or in-person surveys of community group members |
| 1.B. Number of local residents listed in community skills bank. A community skills bank lists the gifts and talents of community members that can be used for both business and community ventures. Often, citizens' skills are unrecognized and thus under-utilized. Schools, churches, and/or community groups-especially those that rely on volunteer labor-may have skills banks. The skills bank should be updated regularly. |
All community organizations, clubs, businesses, service organizations | Report forms supplied to organizations |
