EDUCATION High School Students Cook Up Change

Washington, D.C. - A new website, available at Partnering4Health.org, will assist communities in decreasing the risks of chronic diseases and improve the public’s health. The website includes a comprehensive report, snapshots of the local community projects, an online training course, an inspiring video story, toolkits, and other materials.

From 2014 to 2017, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) provided five national organizations funding to work with 94 urban, rural, and tribal communities for implementing sustainable changes that support healthy communities and lifestyles.

The website incorporates resources from the project and five national organizations - American Heart Association (AHA), American Planning Association (APA), National WIC Association (NWA), Directors of Health Promotion and Education (DHPE) and the Society for Public Health Education (SOPHE).

A nine-part online course allows users to review key elements for sustaining the healthy community movement, by including evidence-based planning approaches to policy, systems and environmental change. The course, which can be completed in 1.5 hours or less, includes engaging videos, interactive activities at the end of each topic, and a course evaluation.

LAW & POLITICS CHICAGO – Illinois Treasurer Michael Frerichs recently announced that Illinois’ Bright Start College Savings Program is now, for the first time in history, a Goldrated program, according to Morningstar.

Morningstar, which evaluates and rates college savings plans, released its results recently, rating Bright Start a “Gold-Rated Fund”. According to Morningstar, Bright Start is one of the four highest rated plans in the country.

“We are always looking for ways to improve our 529 programs and make them the best in the country,” Treasurer Frerichs said. “Over the last two years, I took steps to ensure that Bright Start offered high quality investment options at a low cost. We are grateful that Morningstar continues to hold the Illinois plans in high esteem.”

Report Documents Punishment Before Conviction Still Occurring in Cook County

Conditions for pretrial release set by Cook County judges punish people while they await trial, as described in a report released by the Chicago Community Bond Fund (CCBF) on October 24. The report, entitled Punishment is Not a “Service”: The Injustice of Pretrial Conditions in Cook County, documents the harmful impacts of pretrial conditions, such as electronic monitoring, curfews, monthly check-ins, and drug testing, that restrict the liberty of people who have not been convicted of any crime.

These conditions are supposedly intended to ensure that accused people come back to court and avoid re-arrest. However, they can have significant negative impacts on a person’s access to housing, jobs, and medical care, and their ability to support their children and families, according to a CCBF press release. The report recommends that any services provided by the court be supportive rather than punitive--such as, assistance with transportation and childcare to help people attend court dates, flexible court dates to accommodate work schedules, and referrals to truly supportive services based on individual needs.

The report comes in the wake of Chief Judge Timothy Evans’ General Order 18.8A, which went into effect on September 18th. The order instructs bond court judges to set money bonds only in amounts that people can afford. While implementation of the order has reduced the number of unpayable bonds set by judges, judges in Cook County not only continue to set high monetary bonds in dozens of cases, they are also imposing restrictive conditions on people’s pretrial release that replicate the harms of unpayable bonds, the CCBF press release reports.

Skills for Chicagoland’s Future Celebrates Five Years

Continued from Page 1

By Christopher Shuttlesworth

Skills for Chicagoland’s Future, a public-private partnership located at 191 N. Wacker Drive, recently celebrated the job-placement of more than 4,500 Chicagoland job-seekers since Skills launched five years ago. Over 80 percent of the job seekers that Skills placed in 2016 were African American.

Almost, 35 percent of job-placed candidates were from Chicago neighborhoods with unemployment rates of more than 17 percent, according to a Skills press release. Some of the neighborhoods were Auburn-Gresham, Austin, Chatham, South Shore, South Chicago, West Garfield Park, West Pullman, Roseland, Woodlawn and Avalon Park.

Skills also recently announced the results of a two-year independent study, which quantified Skills’ long-term economic impact on job seekers and tracked their like earnings and employment status.

One finding highlighted that job-seekers who were hired through Skills earned, on average, $6,120 more per year than the comparison group, according to a Skills press release.

Cherita Ellens, vice president of Business Operations and Communications at Skills, said the organization tested multiple job models, but their current model in terms of being more demand driven in learning about employers’ needs first became more effective in the

hiring process.

“We work with the employers as our clients first because they’re the ones with the jobs,” Ellens said. “We want to start with the jobs and we have learned that by having these deep relationships with employers helps us become better advocates for the job-seekers.”

She continued to explain that Skills’ job model allows them to learn more about the culture of the job organization, which better helps them match job-seekers with the right organization.

She said while Skills analyzes employers first, they still take time to interview job-seekers before sending them to an official job interview.

“We coach them and make sure they understand what the companies are looking for,” she said. “Some of the [job-seekers] have not interviewed in a long time so they’re a little rusty or nervous because the interview means more to them than anyone would ever know.”

Ellens said she advises all job-seekers to be “ready” for their interviews by having some background information on the employer and knowledge about the potential job role.

Since 2012, Skills organization has grown from working with five to 60 employers. They include the University of Chicago Medicine, Chase, Walgreens, CVW, Old Navy and O’Hare Airport.

Entrepreneurial program launches in December

By Christopher Shuttlesworth

A

ccording to the State of Women Owned Business Support Report (2015), African American women control 1.3 million businesses, employ 297,500 workers and generate $52.6 billion in revenue.

Demarra Gardner, who is currently residing in Kalamazoo, Michigan, has been the principal of Change Agent Consulting, an independent consulting practice since 2008.

Among her numerous titles, she’s built a national reputation as an entrepreneur, consultant, public speaker and life coach.

Gardner explained that over the course of her ten years in business, she has encountered and coached many Black women who wanted a space to call their own and who were looking for support.

“It’s hard enough to be an entrepreneur, but it becomes that [much] more difficult when you don’t have relevant support,” she said. “So, in January 2017, I woke up in the middle of the night with an idea to begin a program focused on women of color.”

Gardner said after comparing market research for weeks, she found that there are programs supporting women of color, but nothing comprehensive for Black women. A month later, Black Women About Business (BWAB) was born.

BWAB is a year-long virtual retreat, business-support program that provides education on strategic planning, branding, digital marketing and access to funding for aspiring business owners and seasoned entrepreneurs.

“It was really important for me to make sure that Black women could reflect on internal things that may be prohibiting them from going to where they want to go as a business owner or aspiring entrepreneur,” Gardner said. “The design is to make sure we have a safe space to explore issues relevant to us as Black women and not just as entrepreneurs.”

On its website, BWAB is described as a program, “designed to provide black women with the tools they need to be wildly successful in business.” It focuses on education, mentorship, coaching and funding and will launch in about two months.

The organization plans to create situations where, “more than 90% of all business supports will be provided by black women in business.”

Gardner said Black women will have access to webinars and it will be a place where women can discuss clients, marketing issues and strategies. An advance track program will include 9-months of mentorship-coaching sessions, which are individualized sessions and a 3-month small group session focused on consulting, public speaking, becoming an author and blogging.

“We will provide three months of small group work and

there will be only 12 women in each group that will be facilitated by an expert,” said Gardner.

She continued to say BWAB will allow Black women to put themselves first and invest in their personal development.

“Women are the fastest-growing group of entrepreneurs in the country, but we’re still lagging behind in leadership roles, access to funding, mentorship,” Gardner said. “So, it’s important to make sure we’re not defined by society but [make sure] we define ourselves and we do the necessary work to be the best versions of ourselves.”

The inaugural BWAB program will begin on December 4, 2017. For more information, visit www.blackwomenaboutbiz. com or www.facebook.com\blackwomenaboutbusiness\.

MEET THE NEW Veterans thriving as small business owners, according to Allstate/USA Today Small Business Barometer

Macy’s Cardholders can discover their status and the benefits they’re eligible for by speaking with a store associate or visiting macys.com/starrewards

Optimism among veteran small business owners is outpacing the nation’s small businesses as a whole, according to this year’s Allstate/USA Today Small Business Barometer.i The annual index study released new data ahead of Veterans Day showing that veteran entrepreneurs’ optimism is at a resounding 99 out of 100 — which the Barometer found is a reflection of veterans’ overall success in areas such as business performance, hiring and growth.

In fact, nearly three-quarters (73 percent) of veterans say there’s never been a better time to own a small business. And while the numbers are high among all small business owners — 64 percent say the best time to own a business is now and 92 percent report high optimism — veterans’ positive views of the small business climate are consistent across the board.

“Being in the military challenges you to become your best self, and some of the skills it teaches — respect, organization, discipline and loyalty — are exactly the kind of traits it takes to successfully run your own small business,” said Steven James, an Allstate agency owner for the past nine years and a 10-year military veteran. “Owning two small businesses also allows me to continue pursuing my passion for giving back and serving the community I call home.”

The Small Business Barometer, in its second year, combines a national survey of nearly 2,800 small-business owners with federal economic data to provide a comprehensive profile of the sector across the United States and in 25 of its largest cities. For the first time this year, the Barometer oversampled veteran business owners to get a pulse of this influential group.

The U.S. Small Business Administration’s Office of Veterans Business Development says there is approximately one veteran-owned firm for every 10 veterans; veterans are 45 percent more likely than nonveterans to be self-employed; and more than one-third of veteran business owners say that while on active duty, they learned skills that directly transfer to the business world.

The Barometer results reveal that nearly half (45 percent) of all small-business owners employ veterans, and more than a third (35 percent) have veteran hiring practices. Why is that? Respondents gave a number of reasons, but a few stood out: 51 percent said they have veteran hiring practices because it’s the right thing to do; 46 percent said it’s because of transferable traits and skills; and 41 percent of all smallbusiness owners said they value veterans’ teamwork skills.

In addition to selling business insurance products, Allstate works with a network of more than 10,000 small businesses across the country who use veteran-friendly hiring practices.

Through its Joining Forces for Good Licensing Program, for example, Allstate provides veterans and their spouses with the necessary tools to translate their skills into a career as a licensed sales professional for an Allstate agency owner — and with bonuses for passing their property and casualty licensing test, even if they don’t end up in an Allstate agency.

The classes are offered online and in person.

How Churches Can Reduce Their Risk for Money Thefts Volunteers and Employees According to the Association of Certified Fraud Examiners, nonprofits lose an average of 5-7 percent of their revenues each year to fraud and theft.

Brotherhood Mutual, an insurance company specializing in serving religious institutions, says that over $39 billion was stolen from churches in 2014, surpassing the $35 billion churches spent on missionary work in the same period.

Certified public accountant Lisa London, author of the globally Lisa London recognized guide Using QuickBooks Online for Small Nonprofits and Churches, says the thieves are usually the people you would least suspect. Their crimes require motives, means, and opportunity. Not much can be done about motives, London notes, but churches and nonprofits can do something about limiting the means and opportunities that may be present for the more than 62 million people who volunteer each year for their churches, local PTAs, Little Leagues, homeowner associations, and civic groups who may be asked to handle money for the organization or a fundraiser.

London’s mission is two-fold: to reduce the fraud and its

impact on nonprofits and to take the fear out of being a volunteer tasked with handling money.

London has three simple steps any size organization can take to keep the money safe and the employees and volunteers above suspicion. She suggests always having two people handle the money whether at a fundraiser or a regular Using QuickBooks Online for Small meeting, not letting Nonprofits & Churches the person in charge of the bank account also have access to the donor records, and regularly comparing the financial results to a budget.

Lisa London, CPA, is the author of “The Accountant Beside You” series of resources which are being used by tens of thousands of organizations around the world. Her book, Using QuickBooks Online for Small Nonprofits & Churches, includes detailed steps to guard against fraud while setting up an accounting system for a small nonprofit or church. London has been a CPA for three decades and specializes in assisting small businesses, nonprofits and churches. She has been quoted in U.S. News and World Report and featured on the nationally syndicated “Ed Tyll Show,” North Carolina Public Radio’s “The State of Things,” and on CBS or ABC affiliates in Pittsburg, Kan., Greenville, N.C. and numerous other stations around the nation.

Inspirations

from Rev. Dr. Derrick B. Wells,

Senior Minister of Christ Universal Temple

BUT WHO DO YOU SAY I AM? One afternoon, after doing something pretty miraculous, Jesus and his disciples were traveling on to another village.

In between the steps of their journey, Jesus initiated what seemed to be a fairly innocuous conversation, which he began innocently enough by asking the question, “Who do people say that I am?”

The disciples answered according to what the people had been saying about this man of mystery. Then Jesus raised the stakes and asked, “But who do you say that I am?” to which one of the disciples replied, “You are the Messiah.”

What would happen if we would ask the same questions of the people in our circle of influence? Note, it is not that we should be overly consumed with what other people think about us. However, there is something to be learned from the conversations being generated based upon the fruits we produce. This kind of feedback provides insight into how consistently we may be living out and being known by the fruit of the Spirit.

More importantly, we have to remember to live from the effluence of our spiritual nature. As children of God, we have been given authority over what we can produce. We have the ability to determine what we think, how we feel, what we do, and how we respond.

This also means that we must take complete and total responsibility for everything in our life. As divine beings, we are responsible and accountable for what we create. God lives in us as our true spiritual nature and desires to express through each of us as love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, generosity, faithfulness, gentleness, and self-control.

No excuses, just the execution that comes with being true to who we are and whose we are. We will be known by our fruit, so let’s really give them something to talk about.
