If you are not on our mailing list (and you should be!), the January, 2015 newsletter has been uploaded to the site.  You can find it off the top banner under More/Multimedia/Newsletter Archive.

We created a how to document describing suggested changes in your approach to advocating within Jeffco.  Student Based Budgeting has changed everything.  In short, you approach now needs to be directly with your school.  Click the "How to Advocate" link in the banner at the top of any page.  This new document is the first on the page.

We have been hard at work updating the website over the past few weeks.  Specifically, we have added:

• A new subsection on grant opportunities.  This is an area where we have listed, and will continue to add, grant opportunities for school programs as well as individual students.
• A new subsection on advocacy.  We have taken a few of our favorite advocacy white papers and links and posted them here.  In addition, we have written an new white paper on how to advocate within the Jeffco school system under the new approach to budgeting called Student Based Budgeting.  If you aren't familiar with it, or where the correct pressure points for effective advocacy are, this is a good document to read.
• New research to our Research and Data subsection.
• New links to useful resources under our Helpful Links subsection.

We are continuously adding content.  Check back to see what's new by viewing the latest news on our home page or by subscribing to our Facebook, Twitter, and email list.  See the links at the upper right of any web page within the site.
