Upcoming Training Events

Rapid Response Roundtables

CRC will be hosting free weekly Rapid Response Roundtable webinars to discuss the most pressing community needs we have heard emerge from statewide partners in the field as they respond to the COVID-19 pandemic. To assist communities across the state in their response work, these webinars will create space for nonprofits to share their innovations with each other, highlight funding available to meet immediate needs, and to catalyze collaboration across our sector in this challenging time.

CRC will moderate dialogues with diverse, statewide nonprofit partners and funders working to support organizations in their response efforts, with the opportunity for additional audience participation. Each webinar will focus on a specific and urgent community need – the first four topics are food security, telehealth, seniors and older adults, and domestic violence. Additional topics will be selected to address evolving needs.

Are you and your employees ready to have a meaningful dialogue about how to best recruit and retain an LGBTQ (lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, queer/questioning) workforce? This training is a great opportunity for cisgender and heterosexual audiences to get an introduction to basic terminology in a safe space for questions.

This training will cover topics such as:

• The difference between sexual orientation and gender identity
• Other types of diverse identities that fall under the LGBTQ spectrum
• Words or questions that could be considered offensive to the LGBTQ community
• Inclusive language
