  • (NACTE) Project CVE Grant Program Goal 1
    New American and Community Trust and Engagement (NACTE) Project CVE Grant Program Goal 1: Build and Foster Community Resilience to Violent Extremist Recruitment and Radicalization Focus Area 1: Developing Resilience Submitted to: Office for Community Partnerships U.S. Department of Homeland Security Washington, D.C. 20528 Submitted by: Cynthia Shabb, Ph.D. Executive Director Global Friends Coalition Grand Forks, ND 58201 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY Global Friends Coalition (GFC) proposes a comprehensive plan to build resilience in Grand Forks (GF), North Dakota and East Grand Forks (EGF), Minnesota. This plan involves two paths: engaging and empowering New Americans in their new community and reducing social exclusion through outreach efforts directed at the broader population of the area. The New American and Community Trust and Engagement Project addresses both youth and adults. Youth would be matched with volunteer mentors, participate in field trips and enroll in youth activities to connect to their peers, and attend a civic engagement day camp. Adults would participate in a series of classes, from civic orientation a year after their arrival to citizenship preparation as they approach their eligibility date. They would also connect with city and state level representatives, as well as receive advisory support, leadership training, and office space as they build capacity in their own community organizations. As social exclusion is identified as a risk factor for violent extremism, we also propose a series of outreach activities to better inform the broader community about New Americans. These activities include a series of community events, including large group events such as speakers and panel discussions to better inform the public, and smaller relationship-building events such as a community picnic, Communi-Teas socials, and soccer games to allow for more personal interaction between New Americans and long-term residents.

  • Facility & Environmental Inventory
    CHAPTER 2: FACILITY & ENVIRONMENTAL INVENTORY Introduction The Inventory chapter of the Airport Master Plan for the Grand Forks International Airport (GFK) provides the baseline framework to evaluate the airport facility. The facility inventory provides a review of the existing social and built environment to formulate profiles of the community and airport. The environmental inventory provides data to identify key environmental constraints and planning considerations that may affect airport development according to National Environmental Airport Entrance Sign Policy Act (NEPA) guidelines. This inventory data collection will be used to compare the existing conditions to the airport needs determined in future sections of the plan. This will lead to a plan developed for the future of the airport. Background information and data is gathered from various sources and compiled into this chapter. Please refer to the various appendices referenced within this narrative for more detailed information. This chapter provides an inventory of the following elements: Background Facility Inventory o Land o Airfield Facilities o NAVAIDS & Airspace o Commercial Passenger Terminal o General Aviation o Air Cargo o Support Facilities o Ground Access, Circulation & Parking o Other Surrounding Land Use Financial Overview Environmental Inventory Socioeconomic Data Background General The Grand Forks International Airport: Mark Andrews Field (FAA ID: GFK), is the 22nd busiest airport in the United States in terms of operations.

    Testimony on HB 1015 House Appropriations Government Operations Division John Harris, President & CEO Prairie Public Broadcasting January 13th, 2021 Mr. Chairman and members of the committee, thank you for the opportunity to speak with you today about the budget request for Prairie Public Broadcasting, North Dakota’s public broadcasting network. For the record, I am John Harris, President and CEO of Prairie Public Broadcasting. Prairie Public began service to the citizens of North Dakota in 1964 with a single broadcast tower and since then has grown to provide public media services that impact the citizens of our entire state—from childhood through all phases of life. Prairie Public provides public media services that educate, involve, and inspire the people of the prairie region. Public media strengthens communities and helps them to prosper. The citizens of North Dakota know the importance of a strong and viable public broadcasting entity for our community. We are committed to respect for our audience, civil discourse, and lifelong learning. Education is the cornerstone of Prairie Public’s mission. We provide researched, high-quality digital resources and learning materials to students, educators, parents, counselors, librarians, and tech coordinators, and we conduct professional training opportunities to help them use those tools in our region’s classrooms. Public media served as a vital resource for 2020's changing educational needs. Prairie Public’s educational services shifted focus from in-person events and stepped up to promote At Home Learning Resources.
