Hello CTB,

I am an research intern for a developing community health coalition. There seems to be a wealth of information on human resources and organizational structure. However, there seems to be a lack of information regarding the physical resources that a community coalition needs to house these human resources. If your organization could refer me to research regarding the concrete physical resources (I.E. space to have meetings in, space to store disaster relief or prevention materials, other material resources), or a sort of model supply logistics chain for health coalition building, it would be instrumental to our planning.

May an elected director of a corporation use his title when sending written communication when such action is contrary to official policy of the elected board? Does such use of his/her title imply board approval?

Thank you.

Hello my name is Vanessa and I'm working on an Activism Project in my Community Psychology class. I'm passionate about homelessness in Chicago and what to help improve the situation whether it be affordable housing, more shelters, etc. I'm not sure where to begin, however. Any guidance would be appreciated.

Halo! My name is Sara and I am a project coordinator for the Mayan LAB www.mayanlab.com project in Guatemala. We are travelling to Guatemala on the 1st of March to conduct extensive research int he community of Tz'utujil Mayan People and Kiche Maya. As the case is based in a developing country and our community is prosecuted and abused post genocide- indigenous community of Guatemala, threatened by culture distinction, should we take some other, different aspects of research and community assessment into consideration, outside of the toolbox provided on your page?

I am looking forwards to hear from you more,

Regards

Sara

Can you recommend some development models for community health promotion and prevention for a community group home? Women's and children housing only. The community group home just opened and we are implementing health promotion and prevention programs within in it. We're also organizing community programs that the general community of outside women can attend at the home. Any links resources you have would be appreciated. Tx

I have a website hat I hope to show some day regarding local food. But in the meantime I just wanted to know if you know any folks who are trying to at least partially organize local food around backyard or at least sub acre gardening. It seems a lot of the local food work is to encourage farmers or community gardens. Both are great strategies, yet it seems like there are many advantages to a union of backyard gardeners which might include greater social cohesion. Any thoughts appreciated

I need a framework to guide the decision as to whether or not there is value in continuing a task force. Members of the task force are biased - based on their organization's role in the task force. I need to make the decision making process objective. Thank you.

Hello!

I started a grassroots non-profit environmental group while in college. I registered my organization as Eco-Rooted, but have failed to keep up with paper work and fees- especially since we weren't making any money. I want to continue as a 501 c3 purely for the non-profit status so the public knows our intentions.

What is the best way to go about checking my organizations current status?

Also, If I didn't want to apply for non-profit status to avoid the paperwork and fees that come along with it, what is my next best option to keep this organization legitimate and recognizable by the state?

Thanks!
