Assignment 3

PEPP's primary target audience is the low income community of Fargo/Moorhead, to which they offer community organization training and support for the purposes of developing dialogue between the community itself and those individuals and organizations in advantageous civic positions. The audience contributes to PEPP's mission through any successes had as a direct result from the services provided by the organization.
The organization has targeted its audience in the past through newsletters, brochures and other print media before setting up its current website . The organization continues to utilize both print media and the internet as a means to communicate to its audience;in this way the organization can communicate to those with and without internet access.
PEPP's secondary audiences are other organizations in the region, and it may be to this community that my blogs are more relevant. Since my focus will be the "Waking the Sleeping Giant" non-profit coalition project, most of the content of my future blogs will deal with these regional organizations.
Currently, I have only been in communication with PEPP's ED, Duke. In the future I may have more direct communication with PEPP's board of directors.

Looking forward to seeing your org blog. Sam's too. Heck im looking forward to seeing my own ;). Seems like the similarity between ours is the organizing of orgs(in your case) and organizing of individuals(in my case). Considering your approach, I think it will be pretty good. Research seems to be one of your strong points. Wish i could say the same thing.

I'm interested to see how the three of you with PEPP will be able to interact and cooperate on this stuff. I am most interested in the "Waking a sleeping giant" task. I know how challenging it can be to get people together and motivated.

Hey Chad,

The League will sometimes sponser events with other organizations or will have members from different groups come and inform members and nonmembers about different topics. For example, there is an upcoming meeting that will focus on women in corrections. The League probably has members of the policeforce and other organizations come in to speak about the issue. I know PEPP has sponsered candidate forums with the League in the past. Anyway, check out the Leagues new website:www.lwvredrivervalley.blogspot.com
