The Aging Workforce in Southwest Minnesota
|
|
Courageous Conversations:
The aging workforce in Southwest Minnesota
|
|
|
Join us in Marshall on March 23rd!
Friday, March 23, 2018
10:30-11:45 a.m.
Marshall Area YMCA

It's no secret that Minnesota's population is aging rapidly and our workforce is declining in size, with potentially seismic impacts on business, industry, and the state's overall economic health. Given these realities, how can we keep older workers engaged and productive in the workforce, contributing vital skills to help Minnesota thrive in this changing landscape? What are the conversations that need to happen - between employers and employees, and across rural and urban communities - to tackle this growing challenge?
Join us to explore how these dynamics are uniquely impacting Southwest Minnesota.
Featuring:
* Moderator Gary Eichten, MPR News Editor-At-Large and Retired Host
* First-hand accounts of Minnesota employers facing an aging workforce
* Personal stories of Minnesotans wrestling with these changes
* Next steps and recommendations for employers, community leaders, and more
This event is FREE to attend, but registration is required.
Brought to you by the Center for the Study of Politics and Governance at the Humphrey School of Public Affairs, with generous support from the McKnight Foundation.
If you are unable to attend this event, but would like to be on the email list for future Courageous Conversations events on the aging workforce, please email cspg@umn.edu with the subject line "Subscribe to CCs"

United Way Community Investment Volunteers Needed

United Way Community Investment Volunteers Needed
United Way of Southwest Minnesota needs volunteers to help review local non-profit organizations that apply for Community Impact Grants this spring. This is an exciting and influential volunteer opportunity open to United Way supporters. As a volunteer you will review a handful of program applications seeking United Way funding.
Selection as a Community Investment Volunteer will be competitive and limited in participation.Volunteer applications are due April, 2, 2018.
Volunteers will work together in teams to conduct program interviews and look at applicant programs' plans and goals, metrics and results, and financial management. These reviews result in recommendations for funding to the United Way of Southwest Minnesota Board of Directors. Community Investment Volunteers are required to attend a one-time training facilitated by United Way staff regardless if they have volunteered in this capacity prior. The training will be held on Tuesday, April 17th from 3:30PM-5:00PM at the Marshall-Lyon County Library.
This is one of the primary ways that the money that was raised in the recent campaign is put to work to benefit people living in this area. Funds that were raised during the recent annual United Way campaign are re-invested back into services that benefit people in the areas of Health, Education, Financial Stability, Hunger and Safety and Well-Being. Volunteers who live in Lincoln, Lyon, Murray, Yellow Medicine and portions of Cottonwood, Lac qui Parle, Nobles, and Redwood counties are strongly encouraged to apply.
Community Investment Volunteer work is time-limited work over approximately 6 weeks during April and May. Volunteers will be expected to spend up to 8 hours (usually in hour-long increments during the business day) conducting the reviews and preparing recommendations. The panel review work is set up at the convenience of each group and needs to take place before May 25th.
