Caring for the Carer: Beyond Self-Care
2026-08-27 13:00 - 15:00 | https://icoyouth-org.zoom.us/meeting/register/TbRs_v3tSBauUI9TwdgVVQ
The concept of self-care is familiar within the human services field; however, the barriers to engaging in self-care are often overlooked. One of the greatest barriers is the individualistic framing of self-care. We know that relationships foster resilience, so why aren’t we talking more about collective and community care? In this training, participants will shift their understanding of care by reframing employee well-being from an individual responsibility to a shared organizational value grounded in belonging, connection, and collective support.

2026-08-12 13:00 - 15:00 | https://icoyouth-org.zoom.us/meeting/register/3hrHxJ1xSq2SHpezzN3qrw
Many nonprofit organizations work hard to track what they do—meals served, youth engaged, counseling sessions provided, volunteers mobilized—but struggle to communicate the longer-term difference those efforts make. This practical webinar will explore how organizations with limited evaluation capacity can move beyond reporting outputs alone and begin framing meaningful outcomes using information they may already collect. Participants will learn simple, accessible strategies for connecting everyday program data to broader community impact, research-supported outcomes, and even potential economic value. Through real-world examples and straightforward tools, the session will demonstrate how nonprofits can tell a stronger story about mission effectiveness without investing in expensive evaluation systems. Designed especially for small and mid-sized organizations, this webinar will help leaders communicate impact more clearly to funders, boards, donors, and community partners. Participants will leave with practical ideas they can begin applying immediately within their own organizations.
