Five Challenges Facing United Ways (and How to Address Them):
1. Improving the Value Delivered–Beyond Distributing Money
2. Breaking Down Silos to Make Progress on Systemic, Boundary-Crossing Challenges
3. Engaging Community Partners and Volunteers in Meaningful Action
4. Housing for ALICE (especially as ALICE is aging)
5. Addressing Isolation and Dementia in an Aging Population
This webinar builds on the June 27 webinar entitled: "Upgrade United Way Practices for Community Impact, Funding & Evaluation" Our previous webinar featured a discussion with Michael Quinn Patton and examples of the work InsightFormation, Inc. has done with United Way. The webinar also expressed key changes foundational to the upgrade approach and how those changes support greater effectiveness for making a sustainable impact on issues that are at the top of most United Way's list of priorities.
