WHAT WE DO Management and Technical Assistance
Management & Technical Assistance: Strengthening Community Agencies Through the provision of management and technical assistance in various aspects of agency operation, the Asian American Federation of New York tries to equip agencies with the tools and resources they need to deliver high-quality services. How can we organize a successful fundraising event? How can we attract new board members? Where can we get money to conduct strategic planning for our agency? How can managers effectively supervise their staff? Which foundations can we approach to support our program? How do we prepare for a financial audit? How do we establish a personnel policy for our organization? These are some of the questions that our agencies often discuss with us. At the request of an agency, we assess the challenges they face, tackle issues of concern to management and staff, and assist them in working through organizational stumbling blocks. Solutions, recommendations, and action plans are formulated by the Federation staff and consultants, in partnership with the agencys personnel. The Federation has also fostered the spirit of collaboration among agencies. We have brought together agencies serving different Asian ethnic groups to develop and implement projects jointly, work together on initiatives of common interest, and advocate on specific issues affecting the entire Asian American community. The Federation has played a catalytic role in building relationships, transcending cultural, language, and geographic barriers, and promoting cross-cultural understanding and acceptance. For example, a total of $650,000 was secured by agencies during 1996 with the Federations help. The Federation helps agencies achieve their organizational goals in the following ways:
