Campaign Consultation CEO, Steven Rivelis, co-facilitated the “Training of Trainers/Facilitators” session, sponsored by Microsoft, at the National Multi-Cultural Institute’s Diversity Leadership Conference [November 2010].
This 3 day hands-on learning program provided the participants with an opportunity to enhance their awareness, knowledge and skills related to diversity, inclusion, cross cultural communication, being a diversity champion, and cultural competency.
The TOT/F session focused on assessing one’s readiness to conduct diversity training, designing a diversity agenda, curriculum adaptation, and the skills required to facilitate an effective diversity learning program. The participants also received coaching tips and individual feedback.

For the past three years, the Corporation for National and Community Service has requested that Campaign Consultation help CNCS create a successful Martin Luther King, Jr. National Day of Service. Campaign Consultation provides on-the-ground projects with instruction and project support services through methodologies that include website design and development, weekly Webinars, online Update Memos and social media. e-Reporters and e-Photographers are recruited and trained by Campaign Consultation in the use of Twitter, Flickr and YouTube to further promote MLK Day 2011. Volunteers’ real-time, hourly updates from the field spur on other MLK Day project volunteers to ‘compete for good’ and do just a little more – whether delivering meals, improving school and community appearance, collecting food and clothing and developing children through activities. As a result, this past January - hundreds of thousands of Americans in all 50 states participated in over 10,000 projects, making MLK Day of Service truly “a day on, not a day off”.
We invite you to sign up for one of the many volunteer opportunities on the MLK Day of Service site shown below.

“Only a life lived in the service to others is worth living.”
-Albert Einstein
Service to others includes the men and women who have served our country in war. For those lucky enough to make it home, many have difficulty adjusting back to civilian life. To Help illustrate this reality, Henry Schuster, the producer behind this week's "60 Minutes" reported in a blog post:
“The costs of war aren't always obvious or immediate. A few months after I got back last year from a trip to Afghanistan, I got a call from one of the Marines with whom we were embedded. He couldn't sleep; he was drinking heavily; was afraid he was going to kill his dog and couldn't stop arguing with his girlfriend; he'd moved out on her and was living in the barracks. Already on what they call "a bag o'meds," a pharmaceutical cocktail prescribed by a Navy doctor, he was clearly suffering from PTSD - post-traumatic stress disorder. He didn't want to ask anyone at his base for help because he thought it would count against him. I urged him, pleaded with him, to get help.”

In response, to Campaign Consultation team was honored to design and develop a new online resource for Veterans and Military Families. This build out to the Serve.gov site was highlighted when the President, the First Lady, the Vice President and Dr. Biden launched the initiative to engage all Americans, including veterans and military families, in an effort to positively impact the lives of the military community through volunteering and national service.
