Zooming in on Economic Snapshots: What They Mean to You and Your Community
Wednesday, April 6 from 3 to 4 p.m.
As you’ve been digging into the data in your community needs assessments, have you wondered – Where does this data come from? What does it mean about my county’s well-being? And how can I (and other local decision-makers) use this information to strengthen our community? Join this session to explore these questions with the experts from the NC Budget & Tax Center who produce these Economic Snapshots included in your community needs assessments. Maybe even get a preview of what’s new!
Mel Umbarger, Communications Manager, NC Budget & Tax Center
Understanding the American Rescue Plan Act and How You Can Play a Role
Thursday, April 7 from 9 to 10 a.m.
The American Rescue Plan Act (ARPA) was signed into law in March 2021 and represents a momentous opportunity for our state. More than $30 billion across roughly 100 programs is slated to come to North Carolina, including more than $5.4 billion to North Carolina state government and an additional $3.4 billion to county and municipal governments. Join this session to better understand ARPA fundamentals and to consider how you can play a role as a community leader in maximizing local impacts.
And don't forget - board members who missed the opportunity in the fall to participate in the Racial Equity Institute's "Groundwater" webinar should save the date for Thursday, April 28, from 9 a.m. to noon. You'll receive an invitation to register soon, but please save the time and date.
