We express our sympathies to the people of Japan and those who have been impacted by the recent events there. In the midst of tragedy, we hope they can find the peace, strength, and perseverance required to move forward and build anew. The recent earthquake and tsunami is a reminder of how quickly life can change, and a sobering call to appreciate the miracle of ordinary days.
The VA and HUD ($90 million) have announced new grant opportunities related to supportive housing. Read more about the opportunities on the National Supportive Housing Network Funding page or go directly to the HUD announcement or VA announcement. Deadlines for applying are March 11, 2011 for the VA, and March 24, 2011 for HUD.
It's that time of the year again when we start looking forward to meeting many members of the ClientTrack community at NTEN's Nonprofit Technology Conference. We are pleased to sponsor this event again this year; it is a fabulous opportunity to meet new and old friends who care about making a difference in their communities through the use of technology. On Deborah Finn's blog (see http://ow.ly/3TRQ1 ), a great conversation is going on about how to make the most of NTC and a little bit about what to expect. (The conversation is about percieved "cliques" at NTC, and how to make the most of the conference in terms of building relationships so you don't feel snubbed).
A source of new funds are available to help organizations that serve very low-income Veterans (under 50% of the area median income) and their families with transitional and other supportive housing needs (i.e., not directly providing housing). Many members of the ClientTrack community have benefited from HPRP funds; now, this present opportunity may be very complementary with those programs and purposes, and may be worth looking into.
Ok, we haven't officially announced this, yet. But, I figure our ClientTrack Community should be the first to have a hint of what will be coming out as part of ClientTrack version CT2011. All I will say is that with CT2011, you'll stand out in your community! I'm excited about the possibilities for CT2011 to help you reach more people, and make it easier to collect, use, and report your clients' information wherever you may be. Keep posted for the official announcement coming soon!
