2016 Annual Report 2016 ANNUAL REPORT Transforming lives two generations at a time Jeremiah Program 2016 Annual Report | 1 Dear Friends, There is no greater gift than one made to strengthen families and their futures. Thank you; we couldn’t do it without you. Your investment in Jeremiah Program has given us the capacity and resources to partner with determined single mothers and their young children who are thriving now, thanks to your generosity. Within Jeremiah we have high expectations of ourselves and our families. This is evident in our ability to navigate change, growth, and transition. We know change is uncomfortable and takes time, it occurs from the inside out and we believe in the transformative power of education for mothers and their young children simultaneously. Jeremiah is approaching nearly 20 years of success. Our holistic approach is nationally recognized and we are compelled to respond to the call from communities seeking our transformative two-generation model; scaling to meet the growing population of low-income single mothers in the US and addressing the barriers they face trying to earn their 2-year or 4-year college degree. The mothers we meet across our campus communities, from Austin, Boston, Fargo-Moorhead and Rochester, MN to Minneapolis, and St. Paul, share a common thread of hope, courage and determination. The good news is that through Jeremiah, they build a network of support so they don’t have to pursue their dreams in isolation. We know Jeremiah’s two- generation strategy works. • 455 women and children served in five cities across the United States • 68% increase in earnings for the 2016 Jeremiah graduates, from what they were earning when they entered the program • 70% of moms across all Jeremiah campuses who were academic all-stars, earning a GPA of 3.0 or above • 81% of alumnae children who attended a Jeremiah child development center are performing at or above grade level in elementary or middle school • $47,609 average income of graduates from the past five years • 19,204 volunteer hours given by 1,426 volunteers across our locations We have successfully completed the first year of our 2016-2018 strategic plan and we are accelerating our impact in partnership with people from around the country. Jeremiah is committed to quality, data analysis, innovation and leadership within the 2Gen field. We rely on our collective voices to advance the national conversation on the two-generation approach to ending poverty. You can learn more about each of our campuses and the volunteers and donors who make this work possible on the following pages. Too many single mothers face nearly insurmountable barriers to moving out of poverty and their children are at risk of starting school behind their peers; it can seem impossible to catch up. Jeremiah Program is committed to removing key barriers for motivated single mothers so they can achieve their career-track college education. We believe that with a combination of quality early childhood education, a safe and affordable place to live, empowerment and life skills training, coaching and career-track education, families can find stability and a path forward- a pathway out of poverty. You are an integral part of transforming families from poverty to prosperity. Our collective impact throughout the U.S. is a game changer for at least two generations and ultimately creates a better future for neighborhoods and communities. Thank you for all you do! Kim Vanderwall Gloria Perez Board Chair President & CEO Jeremiah Program 2016 Annual Report | 1 2016 HIGHLIGHTS Transforming Lives in 2016 2016 was a year of tremendous growth for Jeremiah Program. Thanks to support from funders like you, we accelerated our efforts to meet the growing demand across the country for Jeremiah’s proven two-generation approach to transforming families from poverty to prosperity. We are pleased to share highlights of our accomplishments this past year. Because of your support, we: Completed a capital campaign and cut the ribbon on a beautiful new campus in Austin, TX, in March 2017 thanks to major gifts from partners such as the Moody Foundation, The Harry and Jeanette Weinberg Foundation, Nelson Puett Foundation, Guadalupe Neighborhood Development Corporation, and Austin Housing Finance Corporation. Established a permanent home in Boston, MA, to offer our holistic support to families thanks to ongoing support from Annie E. Casey Foundation, Endicott College and new Boston partners including The Boston Foundation and BNY Mellon Foundation. Received major capital gifts from Margaret A. Cargill Foundation, Otto Bremer Trust, National Housing Trust Fund, and two anonymous donors, nearly completing our capital campaign for a campus that will serve 20 families at a time in Fargo, ND-Moorhead, MN. Introduced mental health services and greatly expanded career services for our determined mothers in Minneapolis-St. Paul, MN, with the support of many local partners, including Greater Minneapolis Crisis Nursery, Opus Foundation, The Saint Paul Foundation, Otto Bremer Trust, and F. R. Bigelow Foundation. Hired our first Executive Director in Rochester MN, thanks to early support from Otto Bremer Trust, Mayo Clinic, Rochester Area Foundation and local partners such as Olmsted County Community Services and Families First of Minnesota. Provided support to 15 cities interested in bringing a Jeremiah Program to their communities, including Charlottesville, VA, and Brownsville, in Brooklyn, NY, where we have formed important partnerships with Community Solutions and SCO Family Services.

Now a student at Endicott College in Boston and a Jeremiah Program participant, she is growing in confidence that this goal can soon be a reality. When she came to Jeremiah in 2015, Angelina was newly divorced and, in her words, “struggling to stay afloat financially, emotionally and spiritually, not only for myself but for my children as well.” She also faced the loss of a job after the law firm where she had been working for 15 years dissolved. At Jeremiah, Angelina has worked with coaches to formulate a budget and gain a clear view of her financial situation. “The one-on-one coach helped me lay out what are my expenses compared to my income,” she says. “Now I am able to be more financially responsible.” Angelina says Jeremiah’s empowerment course helped her manage her emotions and to understand that she was not alone. “There are many women going through similar situations or even worse,” she says. “This program has helped me reflect on my future goals and actually make them happen.” Workshops have also helped her learn to manage stressful situations, improve her college-level writing skills, and have healthy relationships with her 9-year-old daughter Sarai and 7-year-old son Isaac. Her children are learning alongside her, Angelina reports. “They come with me to the workshops and are able to meet other moms with their children, and even help with some of the younger kids in the program.” A psychology major, she is growing in insight about how to support families that are struggling. “As a single mom, I know we face daily challenges. I encourage any single mom to take time to reflect and value yourself. Once you are able to do that, you can encourage your children to do the same. It all begins with you!” Jeremiah Program 2016 Annual Report | 4 FEATURED DONOR STORY Minneapolis-St. Paul, MN Anthony Barr Viking’s linebacker, Anthony Barr, through his Raise the Barr Foundation, hosted its first holiday party and fundraiser as a way to give back to a cause near and dear to the Barr family. “In raising a child you have many proud moments, and our family has had A LOT of those moments in the last four or five years, but tonight is really one of the proudest for me…it exceeds all others,” Lori Barr said. Raise the Barr Foundation helps to provide single mothers with financial assistance for higher education and childcare. Lori Barr was 20 years old, a sophomore in college, when she had Anthony in Indiana, before the two eventually settled in Southern California to be near family. Barr went on to be an All-American linebacker at UCLA before the Vikings drafted him ninth overall in 2014. “I’m extremely proud of my mom and all she’s accomplished,” Barr said. “She always put me in a position to win and be successful. That is what tonight is about, and hopefully we can help to provide opportunities for other single moms, to help set them up for success,” he added. “I can’t thank her enough for everything she’s done for our family and me… this is just a little way to give back to her.” Lori Barr said help from a foundation such as Raise the Barr would have been a relief to her when she was trying to raise Anthony in the 1990s. “There are a lot of struggles that come with being a single parent, whether it’s a single mom or single dad,” Lori Barr said.

Please refer to those documents for more detail. (2016: C1) where references are given, the first part represents the Congress year and the latter the motion or composite (so this refers to Composite 1 from GMB Congress 2016) All Congress documents from 2005 onwards can be found on the GMB website at www.gmb.org.uk/congress Background GMB Annual Congress is the supreme policy making authority of GMB. It deals with motions and rule amendments from GMB Branches, Regional Committees and the Central Executive Council (CEC). In addition, other issues such as CEC special reports, CEC Statements and Financial Reports are debated and voted on. Once these have been endorsed, they become GMB Policy for the union as a whole. Following the endorsement of the CEC Special Report ‘Framework for the Future of the GMB: Moving Forward’ at Congress 2007, it was agreed that Congress will not debate motions which are determined to be existing union policy. At its meetings prior to Congress, the CEC identifies those Congress motions which are in line with existing GMB policy. These recommendations are reported to Congress in SOC Report No 1 at the start of Congress. Delegates will be asked to endorse these motions and if agreed, the motions will not be debated. However following Congress progress on these motions will continue to be reported. The following guide is an indication of GMB policy but is not a definitive list.

  • Workforce Partnership Council (WPC) Joint Statement on Paid Leave for Staff Experiencing Domestic Abuse
    Workforce Partnership Council (WPC) Joint Statement on Paid Leave for Staff Experiencing Domestic Abuse The Workforce Partnership Council (WPC) is a tripartite social partnership structure of the trade unions, employers and Welsh Government covering the devolved public services in Wales and the forum for cross-public services workforce matters. The WPC is committed to promoting equality in the work place and recognises the profound impact domestic abuse can have on an individual. For this reason the WPC supports the provision of paid leave to members of staff across the devolved public services who are experiencing domestic abuse and are asking all devolved public service organisations to make an express commitment to provide paid leave for staff experiencing domestic abuse, where appropriate, in their special leave or domestic abuse policies. The Impact of Domestic Abuse and the Importance of Paid Leave The effect of domestic abuse is wide ranging. Members of staff may need time off work to access legal or financial advice, to arrange child care or alternative accommodation and to seek medical advice. For this reason the WPC believes it is important for devolved public service organisations in Wales to have policies to support staff experiencing domestic abuse and to make provision for paid leave where appropriate within these or special leave policies. The WPC believes that such policies provide survivors with peace of mind, support and gives them vital reassurance that they will not be financially penalised as they deal with the effects of domestic abuse. The WPC recognises that there are many organisations across the devolved public services in Wales which provide paid leave to help support members of staff experiencing domestic abuse and it wishes to acknowledge the good practice that exists.

  • Colfer Phd Final Submitted 04.12.18 Trade Union Influence Under
    This dissertation is submitted for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Politics and International Studies. Pembroke College, University of Cambridge, December 2017 i Declaration This dissertation is the result of my own work and includes nothing which is the outcome of work done in collaboration except as declared in the Preface and specified in the text. It is not substantially the same as any that I have submitted, or, is being concurrently submitted for a degree or diploma or other qualification at the University of Cambridge or any other university or similar institution except as specified in the text. I further state that no substantial part of my dissertation has already been submitted, or, is being concurrently submitted for any such degree, diploma or other qualification at the University of Cambridge or any other university or similar institution. It does not exceed the prescribed word limit. i There's a simple doctrine: outside of a person's love, the most sacred thing that they can give is their labour. And somehow or another along the way, we tend to forget that. Labour is a very precious thing that you have. Anytime that you can combine labour with love, you've made a good merger. -James Carville ii Acknowledgements I want to thank the Economic and Social Research Council (ESRC), the University of Cambridge Home and European Scholarship Scheme (CHESS), Pembroke College, the estate of the late Professor Monica Partridge, and the Cambridge Political Economy Society for their generous funding and support throughout my doctoral research. I also want to thank the European Trade Union Institute and the American College of Athens, especially Professor Eleni Patra, for supporting me during fieldwork in Brussels and Athens respectively.
