  14. Plugging Into Your System Three Strategies To Keep Ahead

  15. One-Stop ToolkitResources of the Week • A weekly listserv that includes upcoming events and announcements, websites and publications, as well as other useful information and tools. • To subscribe to receive the weekly resource via e-mail, access the One-Stop Toolkit website (www.onestoptoolkit.org) and click on “Resources of the Week.” Scroll down to the bottom of the page to submit your e-mail address. You can also view the archive of past resources of the week. • To view an indexed list of the resources of the week by subject matter, visit the LHPDC website at http://disability.law.uiowa.edu/lhpdc/resources/wig/default.asp. It currently includes 20 categories, covering over 300 annotated references. Each category opens to a new window with each Resource of the Week which covered material in that area.

  16. Work Together—State Level • Form a state-level Working Group of key state stakeholders and staff from other grant funded projects. • Work towards blending available resources and leveraging funds. • As a group, apply for funding and grant opportunities.

  17. Work Together—Local Level • Use the state Working Group as a model at the local level. • Support capacity building. • Improve chances of success. • http://www.grants.gov/
