following excerpt from Confronting Suburban:Pov.erty:in America, May 2:0;2013, explains fheir :

City of Renton Human Services Advisory Committee
October.20, 2015
Page 2
2. Looking at a way of funding agencies that may be excluded from applying or getting funding in
the current process.This group is looking at a demonstration project that may run parallel to the
current process, or may happen in the off-year.
3. Looking at the systems in human services—like diversity of human service commissions,
expanding the capacity of South County agencies to be able to compete regionally for funding,
4. Collecting the tools that cities currently use to evaluate funding applications, and looking at
them through a social equity lens.
Karen helped to facilitate the regional discussions.
In discussion, it was suggested a social justice and equity tool kit should be developed and used as
one guideline.Another suggestion was to look at changes and tools system-wide with human
services committees and getting more people involved.
4. ADVISORY COMIVIITTEE VACANCIES AND MARKETING
There are three vacancies on the Committee, and possibly a fourth one. We are recruiting for
applicants, and members were asked to reach out to people they thought would be an appropriate
fit. Shannon said that it is time to start thinking about officer elections for next year, as her term is
up at the end of 2015. The Vice-Chair usually moves into the Chair position, per the bylaws. In this
case, Ryan is the Vice-Chair, and if he is elected to the City Council, he will need to resign from the
HSAC. That would leave both the Chair and Vice-Chair positions open. IVlembers were asked to
think about volunteering for one of the two positions, and Brook indicated she was interested.
5. HUMAN SERVICES STRATEGIC PLAN
Karen reviewed what work remains to be to complete the plan by December 2015. The goals are in
the Comprehensive Plan and the way to reach the goals is the Strategic Plan. It is the roadmap for
the next three to five years.
There was much discussion about the initiatives, and how they would be prioritized. There was also
a question as to if the staff or the Advisory Committee or agencies were going to do the work. The
general feeling is that both the members and the Manager do not have much capacity to take on
additional tasks at this time, and there would need to be agreement as to what is realistic to get
done. There was also discussion that there are many new members starting in 2016 and if this work
should wait until they are on the committee.
Comments:
• Human services agencies have historically been placed at the front for being awarded grants.
Are we looking to shift away from that?
• What perception(s) are keeping people from applying for services?
• Both early childhood development and child care are behemoth problems to tackle:
• Is the City a role model for other agencies to look to for guidance?
• The City is already partnering to address human service priorities (Initiative#3). Initiative#1—
,
Undersfand,"measure and respond to community needs is also already being done.
• Discussing I'nitiative#5—the Special Initiative on Employment— it was thought that additional
data is needed:What employees in the City workforce specifically look like in depth-full

5::. HOMELESS WORK:. :...:
Karen gave.an overview: ,
.. .
• Volunteers are trying to locate another location for the Cold 1N:eattier Shelter because :
- Harambee is:taking the overflow from the REACH shel:ter.: The prefecable location needs to
be in a:chuFch,on a bus line; and:within walking:distance.to the meal p.rogcams.
.

:
established in the South King Caunty area.
• . Tli:.e Renton Meal:Coalition has relocated.to:the Highlands First:Un.ited MethodFst.Chu.rch,
and the participation rate has dropped by 50% because of its new location: It is difficult to

� Private certificate or training programs—Cordon Blu
erookings—suggest three key principles for addressing region-wide poverty challenges: Getting to scale
by improving systems and networks, promoting high-performance organizations, and supporting smart
consolidation. Promoting collaboration and integration by identifying and reducing barriers to
integration and collaboration, rewarding integrated and collaborative approaches, and catalyzing
regional capacity. Funding strategically and flexibly by committing to enterprise-level funding,
promoting strategic tools that leverage public and private funds, and developing and maintaining
consistent, comparable data.-See more at:http://confrontingsuburbanpoverty.org/action-
toolkit/policy-recommendations-2/#sthash.VOXYfF8l.dpuf
SKC Workgroup—potentially explore these questions—
• What is the city's role?
• How does this link to city Economic Development plans?
• What's working—what are best practices?
� What workforce training exists for fami(ies in SKC?
• What level of case management is part of workforce development?
• Are sufficient workforce supports(childcare, housing,food, basic needs,and transportation)
available?
• Who is the focus?All low income, underemployed, unemployed,families with young children,
youth,disconnected youth? Is there a sector focus?
• Wha else is working{high level beyond service delivery)on this issue?Are opportunities to
connect?
