In this cohort you'll be given the tools to walk through the process of mapping outcomes to potential data sources within your agency and among other state agencies, evaluate research questions, and to teach others to develop research questions that support strategic outcomes.

State of Oregon Data Literacy Cohort

In this 5-session cohort we’ll explore how local government staff can partner with artists, arts organizations, and culture bearers to build community, bridge divides, and identify core community narratives which projects can build from. 

Arts-Based Community Engagement

This course is based more in holding space for creative practice and reflection than conventional teaching. Designed to be a creative community studio for guided introspection, in this six-week cohort we will move through the Strategic Yes for Social Change retreat kit as a starting place for beginning to align our whole selves in our work. With increasing social and political demands on the public sector at this critical point in history, making and taking space for reflection in order to show up to our commitments with integrity is a critical yet often overlooked pause. While there is no &ldquo;right&rdquo; final product or result, anticipated course outcomes include adding more tools to our collective toolbox for assessing our role in social change and developing peer relationships with colleagues who want to engage in this process in community.

Strategic YES for Social Change!

Local governments throughout the nation are understanding the critical importance of creating robust equity and inclusion efforts with communities of color at the forefront.

In addition, strategy experts from ClearPoint will also serve to guide participants to jumpstart their strategic planning efforts. Within weeks, participants can expect to have a strategic plan that they can report on and relationships they can lean on to push through this year and future years to come. Plans will be actionable, measurable, and relevant - designed to help governments adapt to the challenges facing their communities.

2021 Fall Ignite your Spark, Women's Leadership!

ELGL are excited to begin the third Creative Community Cohort, a six-week learning opportunity designed for busy local government staff who are currently working to develop and implement creative placemaking projects and processes in their communities.

Creative Placemaking Cohort - Fall 2021

The traditional budgeting process is not up to the task of addressing concerns related to public safety reform. GFOA has developed seven new budgeting &ldquo;rules&rdquo; that are better suited to this challenge. In this cohort, learn the new rules of police budgeting and how you can use them to address police reform concerns and achieve better public safety outcomes in your community.This cohort will take participants through GFOA&rsquo;s new research paper titled &ldquo;Time for Change: A Practical Approach to Rethinking Police Budgeting,&rdquo; GFOA&rsquo;s Financial Foundations Framework, and other materials that cover the topic of &ldquo;defunding the police&rdquo; &ndash; and what that really means for local governments. Participants do not need to have a public safety or finance/budgeting background to participate. Presentations and exercises will focus on how anyone with an interest in local government or their community can work to improve collaboration, trust, and outcomes.Access the live and on-demand sessions at <a href="https://events.bizzabo.com/rethink-police-budgeting" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://events.bizzabo.com/rethink-police-budgeting</a>Add live sessions to your calendar:<div><a href="https://calendar.google.com/event?action=TEMPLATE&tmeid=NXFnMDM2Z2V1aXNlaGRuODhxa3Y2MWRkaXZfMjAyMTA3MjdUMTkwMDAwWiBjaGVyaXNlQGVsZ2wub3Jn&tmsrc=cherise%40elgl.org&scp=ALL" target="_blank"><img border="0" src="https://www.google.com/calendar/images/ext/gc_button1_en.gif" class="fr-fic fr-dii"></a></div>

Time for Change: How to Rethink Police Budgeting

Over six weeks, you&#39;ll learn how to run successful programs that drive better strategic outcomes for your government. Join current and former government leaders with roles spanning operations, budget, and finance to talk about how to better leverage data, engage the public on complex issues, and measure impact. We&rsquo;ll talk about real-world challenges, examples of successful strategies, and surface and discuss your own ideas about how to improve the strategic functions within government, from budgeting to reporting and analytics to communications.This cohort is offered in partnership with OpenGov.Access the live and on-demand sessions at <a href="https://events.bizzabo.com/complex-financial-questions">https://events.bizzabo.com/complex-financial-questions</a>Add live sessions to your calendar:<div><a href="https://calendar.google.com/event?action=TEMPLATE&tmeid=NjF1bDFlcjk4cDJvaDA4MzY4bzZ1bWZ2YWFfMjAyMTA3MTNUMTcwMDAwWiBjaGVyaXNlQGVsZ2wub3Jn&tmsrc=cherise%40elgl.org&scp=ALL" target="_blank"><img border="0" src="https://www.google.com/calendar/images/ext/gc_button1_en.gif" class="fr-fic fr-dii"></a></div> *Please note, week 5 will be self-guided content with no live session.

Engaging Your Community on Complex Financial Questions

Public input and proactive engagement can improve services, support better decision-making, and solve problems faster. Or, it can waste resources, lead to poor decisions, and create problems. What you get depends on how you engage people and how you manage the input you get.What are the issues in your community that you want to solve by having the right feedback from the right residents? How do you get the exact input you need? And how are you planning to implement your engagement strategy?In this cohort, you&rsquo;ll learn everything you need to know about public input and proactive engagement&mdash;when you need it, what you need, how to get it, and what to do with it.
