A Membership Highlight is the Annual Health and Human Services Summit – Save the date for October 14, 2019

Held in October each year.  Wow!  What an amazing event that connects our community. In 2016 we strengthened our workforce with 385 Training Certificates issued from 18 courses, 80+ booths distributed vital community information and resources, we hosted the White Cane Awareness Walk and free Health Screenings.

In 2015, 215 area professionals received vital training to bring back to their clients and strengthen our community, earning over 250 certificates of attendance and CEUs through Daytona State College.   In 2015 we added clothing distribution, free flu shots, free diabetes and vision screenings through the Lion’s Clubs, the opportunity to donate blood and get your licence.

In 2014 with over 31% of our youth under 18 living in poverty in our county, we included a Poverty Simulation.  This experiential exercise  empowered 60 community leaders to make mindful decisions and inspire advocacy, insightful programming and community partnerships thus creating a powerful culture for future change and renewed!

Through partnerships with CAREERSOURCE, DSC* and LSF, trainings were offered without charge by area experts that included; Suicide Prevention*, Human Trafficking, Domestic Violence Training*, Strengthening Families Framework, Cultural Competency*, The Importance and Dynamics of the Parent-Child Relationship*, Sexual Abuse Treatment Program, Going Beyond Social with Nonprofit Social Media and Maximizing Nonprofit Performance with an Implementable Strategic Plan. Each speaker filled a specific need that was requested as a resource by our community to promote maximum effectiveness and many of the speakers offered future trainings and resources as part of these experience.
