Our 2017 Capitol Hill Day is taking place on April 26th and will give state association leaders the tools that they need to talk with legislators about the value of adult education. For the first time we held a competitive scholarship process to enable each association to bring an adult learner with them. Adult Learner Scholarships, valued at $1,000 each, were awarded on March 26th to the following adult learners:
Margo Hudson, OH
Kecha Richardson, KY
Alan
Chretien, ME
Heather Ashman, AZ
Kimberly Lee, LA
The scholarship recipients were selected based on the strength of the story on how adult education has been life changing, the indicated contacts that will be made, and the anticipated continuing advocacy work following the trip to D.C. Sponsoring state associations will be responsible for ongoing support prior to and during the COABE Capitol Hill Day.

VIP VENDOR FOR APRIL
|
The Alliance for Freedom, Restoration, and Justice® exists to end human trafficking and the exploitation of the vulnerable. We do this by equipping YOU to make a difference.
Human trafficking is a reality that is as widespread as it is horrifying. It is modern slavery - for purposes of sexual exploitation, forced labor or services, or organ trafficking. It is an evil that profits billions of dollars and enslaves millions of people. And it is happening everywhere - all around the world and within our own communities.

Social Finance is offering free technical assistance to develop
outcomes rate cards
, an approach that tackles pressing challenges for people in need by defining outcomes and paying providers as those outcomes are achieved.
This approach shifts government payments toward outcomes and allows for projects that can serve many people in need.
