www.skils-kin.org

 
In 1970, concerned parents, family members and business leaders in Spokane organized the Pre-Vocational Training Center to provide services to Spokane-area adults with developmental, physical and mental disabilities. In 2004, the company name was changed to Skils`kin, a Native American word that means "a place where a person goes to seek personal identity and self-empowerment." Skils`kin is a community-based, not-for-profit agency. Working with national and local businesses, we are able to assist people with a wide variety of disabilities to become more self-reliant and economically self-sufficient.

City of New Haven

New Haven is governed via the mayor-council system. Connecticut municipalities (like those of neighboring states Massachusetts and Rhode Island) provide nearly all local services (such as fire and rescue, education, snow removal, etc.), as county government has been abolished since 1960. New Haven County merely refers to a grouping of towns and a judicial district, not a governmental entity. New Haven is a member of the South Central Connecticut Regional Council of Governments (SCRCOG), a regional agency created to facilitate coordination between area municipal governments and state and federal agencies, in the absence of county government. John DeStefano, Jr., the current mayor of New Haven, has served nine consecutive terms and was re-elected for a record tenth term in November 2011. Mayor DeStefano has focused his tenure on improving education and public safety, as well as on economic development. Notable initiatives include the Livable City Initiative, begun in 1996, which promotes home ownership and removes blight. In 1995, DeStefano launched a 15-year, $1.5 billion School Construction Program, already half finished, to replace or renovate every New Haven public school. In 2010 DeStefano began the ambitious job of undertaking school reform efforts - which led to the NY Times referring to New Haven as "ground zero" for school reform.

Madera County

Madera County is more than buildings and business. It`s about people. People who have chosen to live life the way it was meant to be; surrounded in peace and harmony with the land, living with the assurances of quality health care and safety, and living with some of the best education the State of California has to offer. Located in the heart of California`s Central Valley, Madera County has a rich agricultural tradition which coexists with a growing industrial base. A strong sense of community and cooperation helps to welcome newcomers to a place which they will happily call "Home" Housing costs in the county are some of the most desirable in the State. In addition, our parks system (local, county, state and national) are some of the most historic and best available. We invite you to explore the benefits of Madera County.

California Department of Housing and Community Development

As one of the largest states in the nation, California proudly celebrates its diversity— from its diverse geography to the diversity in the millions of people who call California “home.” Working to ensure the housing needs in such a large and varied state is no simple task, and California`s housing-affordability challenges are well-documented. The team at HCD takes these housing-affordability challenges seriously, to ensure Californians from all walks of life have safe, stable, and affordable places to call home, and broke down silos to engage in housing-related activities that benefit other issues Californians care about—from clean air and transportation to the general health and safety of all Californians. HCD remains focused on what works, while finding new opportunities to make the most efficient and most effective use of the public`s investment in programs that: • Increase the housing supply, keeping roofs over the heads of Californians. • Lift up neighborhoods by providing parks, sidewalks, bike paths, and other infrastructure necessary for healthy communities. • Protect the health and safety of Californians through building code enforcement and other inspection programs. • Connect people to the opportunities they need to live successful lives
