Program in Technical Assistance established by GWB

By Jessica N. Roberts

The George Warren Brown School of Social Work continues to increase its work in the St. Louis community with its newly established Program in Technical Assistance.

"GWB has a well-established relationship with social agencies in the St. Louis area," said Shanti K. Khinduka, Ph.D., dean and the George Warren Brown Distinguished University Professor. "Many of these agencies are small and have limited resources. Through this initiative, we will be able to provide assistance to these agencies."

Under the direction of Barbara Levin, the program will provide assistance to St. Louis nonprofits through consultations, workshops, lectures, skill-development programs and other strategies in order to build organizational and professional capacity and competency.

The program applies the resources and talents of GWB to the challenges and issues facing the nonprofit sector so that its members are better prepared to serve communities.

"This program reinforces the commitment of GWB to the St. Louis community by serving nonprofits in their quest for management and service excellence through education and consultation for staff, board members and volunteers," Levin said.

An advisory committee, chaired by Charles Lowenhaupt, an attorney and a member of GWB's National Council, and comprised of community leaders, will provide the program with counsel and guidance.
