13 <br /> Postage: mailing out meeting notices for community and coalition meetings. <br /> Duplicating: copying educational materials, meeting notices, and minutes. <br /> Office Supplies: paper, pens, pencils, file folders, refreshments for meetings, and other office <br /> supplies. <br /> Community Project Support: provide seed money for community-based projects and ideas <br /> such as invited speakers, workshops, and training. <br /> Equipment: current fax machine needs replacing. <br /> Program Support - <br /> NC CBPH Consortium Support: These funds will be used in conjunction with similar <br /> amounts contributed by other CBPH coalitions in North Carolina to sustain participation in the <br /> North Carolina CBPH Consortium. Such participation provides opportunities for coalitions to <br /> share experiences related to implementing community-based approaches to public health, to speak <br /> with a single voice on matters of policy and dissemination of the CB PIE message, and to approach <br /> funders as part of an initiative that is based in communities but has an impact throughout the <br /> region. In particular, these contributions will be used to achieve the following goals for 1996-97: <br /> 1) coordinate the development of cross-county activities that address shared priorities such as <br /> health,youth, economic development, safe communities, and leadership development; <br /> 2) advocate for the implementation of CBPH approaches among local,state, and national <br /> representatives of the'three CBPH partners (community-based organizations, health agencies,and <br /> academic institutions); 3) explore policy issues that have an impact on our mission; <br /> 4) provide operating support for the Consortium; and 5) facilitate Consortium-wide evaluation <br /> processes_ <br /> The Coalition proposes that the requested funds be sent to the University of North Carolina at <br /> Chapel Hill as the fiscal agent for the Consortium and then subcontracted to the Orange County <br /> Health Department as the fiscal agent for the Orange County Coalition. Funds for the two staff <br /> positions described above would then be subcontracted to Joint Orange-Chatham Community <br /> Action,Inc. <br /> 6 <br />
