SUMMARY:CalTrin | The Role of Accountability in the Coaching Process
DESCRIPTION:Training Overview\nResearch that shows that accountability is one of the key indicators of successful goal achievement. When a person sets a goal\, but doesn’t share it with anyone\, there’s a greater likelihood they will give up on the goal and choose an easier path. In the process of coaching and goal setting\, accountability is one of the foundations of the client-coach relationship. The coach’s role in the process is to act as an informed partner and a compassionate motivator\, not a rigid disciplinarian. In this session we will explore the importance of accountability to client success\, and identify ways to create solid accountability plans with them. \nLearning Objectives\n\nDescribe why accountability is a critical factor for success in coaching\nIdentify the characteristics of an effective accountability partnership (informed partner and compassionate motivator) versus a rigid or punitive approach\nUtilize coaching practices that hold clients able empowering them to take ownership of their commitments through self-reflection\, resource identification\, and supportive follow-up conversations\n\nRegister Through CalTrin\n

SUMMARY:IVAT | Moral Injury Explained: How it Differs from PTSD & Why It's Often Missed
DESCRIPTION:Training Overview\nMoral injury occurs when individuals perpetrate\, witness\, or fail to prevent actions that violate their deeply held moral beliefs. It causes profound psychological\, emotional\, and spiritual distress. Moral injury differs from PTSD as its focus is on shame and loss of trust\, rather than fear-based trauma. \nIt’s essential for people to learn about moral injury because it helps them recognize a form of distress that is often misdiagnosed or overlooked as depression or PTSD. Understanding moral injury enables clinicians to more accurately identify the underlying guilt\, shame\, betrayal\, and loss of meaning that may contribute to clients’ presentations yet remain undetected through standard assessments. This awareness enhances diagnostic precision\, supports the development of a strong therapeutic alliance by validating clients’ moral and existential distress\, and informs interventions that address not only psychological symptoms but also the ethical conflicts\, identity disruption\, and spiritual concerns inherent in moral injury. \nRegister through IVAT\n

SUMMARY:CalTrin | Psychological Safety: The Foundation for a Connected & Engaged Team
DESCRIPTION:Training Overview\nCulture is a complicated blend of values\, assumptions\, perceptions\, attitudes\, beliefs\, behaviors\, and customs.

SUMMARY:PreventConnect | Prevention People Can Understand: Communicating Prevention with Clarity and Impact
DESCRIPTION:Training Overview\nThe ways we talk about prevention matter. Strong relationships\, trust\, and shared understanding are at the center of preventing sexual and intimate partner violence\, yet the language we use as professionals doesn’t always match what resonates in communities. \nThis session explores how to talk about prevention in ways that feel clear\, relatable\, and grounded in real life. Join PreventConnect to explore how language shapes understanding\, learn how to simplify complex ideas without losing meaning\, and how to communicate in ways that reflect the values of safety\, belonging\, and collaboration. \nTogether\, we’ll practice creating messages that help community partners\, program participants\, and local leaders see themselves in the work and feel invited to be part of it. \nLearning Objectives \n\nIdentify language choices that make prevention work easier to understand and more welcoming.\nBuild confidence in translating technical or academic terms into language that connects with community partners..\nPractice crafting messages that reflect community strengths\, culture\, and lived experience.\n\nRegister Through PreventConnect

SUMMARY:IVAT How Does Trafficking Happen and How to Respond?
DESCRIPTION:Training Overview\nThis training explains how individuals are recruited or groomed into trafficking situations\, and debunks common myths – including that trafficking involves kidnapping and forcible confinement. We will take a deep dive into the “Romeo” or “boyfriend” trafficking strategy. A framework involving 6 stages of grooming into trafficking is introduced\, which leads into a discussion of trauma-informed strategies for interacting with suspected or confirmed trafficking victims. The presentation introduces a number of myths related to human trafficking\, replacing them with facts\, with the final myth being that victims will self-disclose their exploitation. There are many reasons why victims do not self-disclose\, and we must be sensitive to these dynamics. At the end of the training\, participants will be able to identify stages of grooming\, differentiate strategies of trauma-informed care\, and explain trauma bonding. \nRegister through IVAT\n

SUMMARY:MCN | Engaging Your Board in Fundraising Without the Struggle
DESCRIPTION:Training Overview\nEngaging boards in fundraising is one of the most frustrating challenges for nonprofit leaders. We want them to help\, but not too much\, and in just the right way. \nIn order to ease the tension with our boards when it comes to fundraising\, we must: \n\nUse a gift table to determine what we need from board members. The number of donor introductions is determined by the number of prospects we need. A gift table helps us figure that out.\nDetermine their role in fundraising by looking at the board’s governance structure. Working boards provide a different level of support than governance boards. We align our expectations with the governance structure.\nMap board engagement opportunities to the specific fundraising strategies you’re prioritizing—whether that’s major gifts\, events\, grants\, annual giving\, or corporate sponsorship.\n\nYou’ll leave with a concrete next step to deepen board engagement in fundraising—one that fits your board’s structure\, your current priorities\, and your organization’s fundraising plan. \nLearning Objectives\n\nClarify the role of their board in fundraising based on whether they operate as a working board or governance board.\nIdentify the most effective ways their board can contribute to different fundraising strategies (e.g.\, major gifts\, events\, corporate sponsors\, grants).\nUse a gift table to determine specific fundraising needs\, including the number of prospects and asks needed to reach a goal.\nFacilitate a board storytelling activity that equips your board members to engage others in a conversation about their “why” for supporting your organization.\nLeave with one actionable next step to engage their board more meaningfully in the fundraising process.\n\nRegister Through the Minnesota Council of Nonprofits

SUMMARY:MCN | Facilitative Leadership
DESCRIPTION:Training Overview\nFacilitation has become an essential skill for leaders seeking to change lives\, systems\, and societal practices. Facilitative leaders play a vital role in fostering collaboration\, nurturing the capabilities and commitment of employees\, colleagues\, and stakeholders. Facilitative leaders “lead” by clearly communicating their vision and organizational boundaries while supporting their team’s efforts. \nFacilitative leadership entails guiding individuals by presenting an inspiring vision of the positive transformations that their work can bring to the world. It also involves creating an environment that encourages every team member to engage enthusiastically and wholeheartedly in their work. Weaving together these two roles is not always easy. \nIn this workshop\, we will delve into the qualities\, values\, and benefits of facilitative leadership. We will explore its relevance in our ever-evolving workplaces\, considering whether and how this leadership style supports leaders during times of continuous change and complexity. Participants will discuss content in small and large groups and apply it in real time to their own situations. \nRegister Through the Minnesota Council of Nonprofits

SUMMARY:MCN | Dismantling White Saviorism: Knowing Your Role in Anti-Racism\, Equity\, and Inclusion
DESCRIPTION:Training Overview\n“It feels awkward to say ‘The White Community’\, right? A reason for this is that whiteness is afforded the acknowledgement that white people are diverse in their cultures\, thoughts\, and realities. The actions of one white person\, or a small group of white people\, are not systemically positioned as representative of all white people. So why are we so comfortable saying ‘the Black\, the Indigenous\, the Asian\, or the Muslim community’?” – @ancestorsfuture \nAs White folks\, we often do not seek to understand what our role is in anti-racism\, equity and inclusion\, even in our own workplaces and community spaces. This training will help you understand the Eight White Identities and find your role in the ongoing work of racial and social justice in our communities. All learner types were thought of when planning this training\, with times for individual reflection\, small group work\, and full group sharing. Join us to say no to white saviorism and commit to working toward being an ally and accomplice. \nTopics include\n\nCultural\, religious\, and racial tensions\nMoving from indifference to action\nThe eight white identities\nWhite savior complex\nInterpersonal vs. systemic discrimination\nContradictions for white folks in racial justice work\nInterrupting dominant white culture\n\nLearning Objectives\n\nYou will understand the levels of whiteness and identify where you are on your journey.\nYou will hear stories of both marginalization and hope from MN communities.\nYou will learn about white saviorism and understand your role in racial and social justice as a white person working toward being an ally and accomplice.\n\nRegister Through the Minnesota Council of Nonprofits

SUMMARY:IVAT Criminal or Victim? Understanding the Evolution of Domestic Minor Sex Trafficking & the Unjust Criminalization of Trafficked Youth
DESCRIPTION:Training Overview\nThis webinar examines why trafficked youth in the United States have historically been misidentified and criminalized rather than recognized as victims. Led by Mikayla Simeral\, MSW\, Director of Training Advancement at Shared Hope International\, the session traces the evolution of domestic minor sex trafficking and highlights how trauma responses\, systemic bias\, and gaps in services contribute to these harmful outcomes. Drawing from both direct advocacy experience and national-level training and policy work\, Mikayla will offer practical strategies for early identification\, trauma-informed engagement\, and survivor-centered intervention. Participants will leave with a clearer understanding of how misidentification occurs—and how to help shift responses that protect\, support\, and dignify exploited youth. \nRegister through IVAT\n

SUMMARY:MACMH | Supporting Children During Immigration Enforcement Operations
DESCRIPTION:Training Overview\nMany children from immigrant and refugee families have loved ones at risk of deportation. For these children\, immigration enforcement operations in a community can pose a risk to mental health and development. Fortunately\, supportive adults in a child’s life can play a large role in protecting children’s mental health and promoting positive development. \nThis training offers concrete strategies that adults can use to support children during periods of uncertainty and fear. Drawn from the field of developmental resilience science and informed by clinical practice\, these strategies leverage ordinary resources around a child — most importantly\, the presence of caring adults — and can be applied by anyone in service to children\, including parents\, educators\, clinicians\, and community leaders. Attendees will learn skills for communicating with children about immigration enforcement\, restoring predictability and safety\, promoting agency\, and\, most importantly\, listening well. \nLearning Objectives\n\nArticulate children’s core developmental needs amid fears of a loved one’s detention or deportation\nImplement practical strategies to support children who are afraid of a caregiver’s detention or deportation\, as well as those whose caregiver has been arrested\nAdvocate for the needs of children and families affected by immigration enforcement operations\n\nRegister Through MACMH
