Vol. 4 - Issue 20
Dear NYS CDFI Leaders and Allies -

Your calendar may show a hold for an ALL HANDS Zoom today. Good news - you're getting that hour back! 

Due to a number of conflicts, we're going to postpone our November ALL HANDS by two weeks, and invite you to join us on Friday, December 1. 
All Hands: Friday, December 1 - Noon on Zoom
NYS CDFI Coalition
Planning for 2024

Join us on Friday, December 1, for an All Hands Zoom as we look ahead to 2024. 

One of the goals of the NYS CDFI Coalition is to provide our members with opportunities to share the information and support they need to be successful. While we enjoy bringing guest speakers to our All Hands Zooms, the time left for sharing information usually feels rushed! 

This time around, we're going to reserve the entire meeting to explore the needs of NYS CDFIs, identify problems and possible solutions, and develop strategies for interaction with policy makers, interest groups and the media in the year ahead. 

This discussion will also inform the content of our 2024 NYS CDFI Coalition Conference slated for March in Albany - date TBD.

We hope you'll come prepared to share your thought and ideas. Your voice is important, and our conversation makes the Coalition stronger! 

We'll hope to see you at noon on Friday 12/1 - all hands on deck!
 
RSVP for ALL HANDS Today!
Discussion Prompts
  1. Is there a tool, rule or process you work with fairly regularly but would like to explore more deeply?
     
  2. Is there a new technology or technique that you keep hearing of, but don’t know much about?
     
  3. Is there something you do because “everyone else does” that could use closer examination?
     
  4. Have you recently read a book, listened to a podcast, or went to a webinar that you found especially interesting, relevant, or profound?
     
  5. What is the thing that frustrates you the most about your work or process? (Could be an internal or external issue.)
