Community Anti-Drug Coalitions of America (CADCA) will hold its Fourth Annual Mid-Year Training Institute at the JW Marriot Desert Ridge Resort and Spa in Phoenix, Ariz., July 25-28, 2005. Attendees can choose from a menu of intensive day-long workshops, with an emphasis on the everyday challenges of running an effective organization-from fundraising to board and volunteer management. By mastering key non-profit management skills, grassroots leaders can provide more effective leadership, regardless of their mission. CADCA designed these courses to appeal to a broad audience, whether their primary focus is in the sphere of public health, education or criminal justice.

Speakers will include some of the nation's leading experts in nonprofit management, fundraising and human resources, including keynote speakers Keith Timko and Geneva Johnson from the Leader to Leader Institute, formerly the Peter F. Drucker Foundation for Non-profit Management. Other presenters include Bill Harrison, a nationally-recognized fundraiser and author from the Arizona State University Center for Nonprofit Leadership and Management, who was named the 2005 Outstanding Fundraising Executive by the Arizona Chapter of the Association of Fundraising Professionals. Harrison will lead a workshop for coalitions on Fundraising Methods and Strategies. Read more from this post.
