uh to give the support that they need around child care. And here is Malinga Makuna Akunda. She is also the other family friend and neighbor navigator and she takes care of the new American and she speaks four languages. I speak
English and Spanish and we both also uh take care of anyone that speaks English and need the resources about our care. So that's [Music] it. Something is going on with the
technical difficulties. Uh, McDallia, Tanya's helping. Okay, Tanya, if you could just put the focus on that on the team's meeting as well. screen. There you go. Thank you, Tanya. Can I continue? Yes, please. Thank you.
Sorry about that. No, that's fine. I understand. Uh, so I would like to start with the promise of community action. Uh, community action changes people's lives, embodies the spirit of hope, improves communities, and makes America
a better place to live. We care about the entire community and are dedicating to helping people hemmed up help themsel and each other. This is the childcare connection division. Uh our staff uh supports child
caregivers uh families and informal child care uh and training for child care providers. Uh we are part of four divisions uh programmatic division divisions at CAP Besides
uh economic empowerment, housing stability, health and wellness and of course the childcare connections. And you can't see very well, but this is the area that we support. Uh we support 21 counties in Minnesota including uh tribal nations,
Red Lake and White Earth. And also we cover the state of of North Dakota with quality improvement and assessment. Our child care connections divi AI division vision is CAP childcare connections is our community's most
trusted child care resource. are going to hear that during the presentation a couple of times. Our mission, our CAP BCC team is dedicated to supporting and advocating for all aspects of
highquality early childhood education to improve opportunities and outcomes for children, families, educators, and our communities. And we uh participate in all that is related to child care. Uh for the
families, for early childhood education, uh for employers because uh they need to be involved also in child care, what is going on, what is happening and policy makers. Uh so we assist the families looking for child care. We give them the
resources or places that they can look at uh to find the child care that uh works for them and their needs. Uh we support educators with trainings and quality care resources so they can provide uh quality education for the
children that they are taking care of. Um we build connections with the community partners like here tonight that I am sharing with you this information. So you can partner with us. Why do we do this work? Okay, so
first of all, 90% of the brain development occurs during the first five years of life. And more to say about that is that even before birth, the children are having a
learning experience that is going to provide them the foundation for the early learning uh that that baby is going to have in the future. Um, every child, we do this too because
every child deserves to have access to quality education and resources. And this includes a grandma or aunt that is taking care of her nephews. All ch all all children deserve
to have access to quality resources, to quality education, and to be in a health and safety environment. And that is what we support. Lack of child care causes a direct impact on our workforce and
economy. And I just have to say this is a quote. I can work because I found child care. And this is the part where we plan to how to achieve those results that we want to see in our community and in the
state of Minnesota. Uh we provide childc care start up and retention that is a program that uh provides grants and resources for child care givers that are going to start their business or retention for those that are struggling
that probably don't feel that they are that they are going to continue that they are thinking on closing their doors. We have people that can sit with them look at the different options and if there is an option and they can still open that's good. If not at least we did
everything we had available to help them grow go through the different options. Uh quality rating and improvement that is the part that uh works in the state of North Dakota. We have a group that uh do the quality uh
reports and uh give trainings and do assessment in the state of North Dakota for early childhood professional development. We have uh some staff that actually are in charge of providing trainings or fine
trainings for the share child care providers grants for startup uh child care or for other purposes around child care assistance program and early learning scholarships. The childcare assistant program is granted to the
parents or the families. That is money that they are going to use to pay for child care. And early learning scholarships are for the children to pay for their education. And the last one is the family friend and neighbor program which
is the one that I work with and the one that I am going to share more information. Is there any question or or at the end? Okay. So, this is the family friend and
neighbor program of Minnesota. Uh FFN caregivers are like I mentioned before family members uh friends or neighbor that take care of children out of the formal uh child care setting. So they are not a center, they are not a
family child care, they are not legal, no license. Uh so those are the the the people that benefit from this program, grandma, friend, a neighbor, uh anyone. Uh like think on a grandparent taking
children, taking care of their ch their own children during the week or this auntie taking care after school for her nephew. FFM caregivers are a frequent choice for parents with young children, children
with special needs, children of diverse cultural and ethnic communities, and parents who work non-standard hour jobs. So again, uh we provide services to people that speak different languages, but also those that speak English and
that can be in that group of people that are actually the ones that prefer to have someone that they trust, someone that they know to take care of their child for sure. eligibility uh caregivers working outside of the formal uh child care
system in Minnesota. Uh and I would say love children having really uh that commitment with children. Um and the benefits these child caregivers have the
support of us FFN navigators. We provide them home visits, one-on-one information. Uh we do meetings, we do training, we find uh trainers also in the community. Uh resources for kids, uh
resources for educators. We also support their mental health because it is a job that takes a lot of energy and mental health is very important for us to support them and all the resources that they may need.
Now I would like to share this video. This video summarize everything about the resources that we provide the information about the FFN caregivers and how they share their own experiences and these are real FFN navigators and
caregivers from Minnesota. the sound is not included. So we have FFN navigators and we have uh FFN caregivers from Minnesota and they are sharing information about how they support the children and how uh the FFN
caregivers appreciate the support that we give them uh across the state of Minnesota. If you're able to pause it, we have tech support coming in. Wouldn't be a meeting without issues in tech, right? Oh yeah. Thank you.
I am proud to be a navigator just to help people. It's that's been my goal in life is to help people. We provide a lot of resources and help for the caregivers so that they can help their kids get what they need. FFN impacts the lives of
children. Not only by just giving them like free materials, but by teaching their caregivers how to do activities, how to work with them, how to process emotions that benefits the children. Anytime you need help with anything, we
are here to support you. The navigator usually reach out for the family, friend, and neighbor, caregiver. Um, when we go meet with our FFN families, we meet them in person. A big part of our work is listening. What they need, what they want, what we can suggest to
help them. Just a guide to show them the right direction to where to go. That's what I that's why I'm here. Just helping the families get back on their feet when they need to. And we're just there
willing to help as much people as we can. We're able to um purchase a lot of items that the families can then have for free, whether it's books or the supplies. We um just had last week that we were looking for a pair of coat and
boots for the care provider just so she could go out and play outside with the kids that she was taking care of. Some of the items that go into our FFN um kits found to be beneficial are the blocks, puzzles, educational books, trying to build in some cultural
supports with that. So that we're bringing in music. We're bringing in bilingual items or cultural items, some safety items as well. We're offering them first aid kits and smoke detectors, carbon monoxide detectors. We have the ability to offer them some uh booster
seats and smaller items that we can keep on hand, things that are going to offer that safe environment for the children. We offer CPR classes, classes to prepare them in case of emergencies, uh about early education and prepare them to better educate the children that
they're caring for. Uh we also offer assistance to fill out any scholarships or grants that are out there through other organizations. I can help them navigate the systems, offer language supports in a way that they can't
because of the language barrier and we can directly support certain individuals if they are actually looking to get their license for a family child care. in this program, they're gaining a number of new skills. Um, but they're also finding in themselves what they
already know and then they're able to practice that here and um just continue to grow and and thrive. For the ongoing relationship, I always text and ask them how they doing, if they are needing anything, email them with all the
support that they need. um if they are looking for any type of other support, we can build a relationship that you can come to me and ask me for any help that they need and we both together can work
to solve any problem or any challenges. A lot of our work is just thinking outside of the box and and what are those different ways that we can help support families that actually make sense. it is not as hard as it sounds to
be an FFN caregiver. Um, so requirements are that they do not hold a a license. They're not licensed for daycare and they provide at least 5 hours a week in child care. As long as you're taking care of children at some capacity,
you're welcome to be in our programs. We offer the support to anyone. Obviously, at the end of the day, anything we offer is only going to benefit the children you care for. So that's all that matters to [Music] us. So in the video uh one mentioned
about the legal non-licens provider. We support them to if they want to to become legal non-licensed provider which means that they can accept the child care assistant program as a payment and uh and they just have to comply with
some additional requirements. Uh some of them are uh they have to be 18 years old. They have they must be US citizens or resident alien. uh meet the background study requirement after
pediatrics, CPR and other requirement. And I would like to thank you all for all that you do to support child care. And if you would like to do something else for us or amplify that
support, uh we would we would uh like you to promote child care and early educators. Bring us to the table uh our division and we can have a conversation and do great things for child care and
families and educators in this area. um and advocate for child care uh funding and advocate with us for quality child care for every child in Minnesota. And when you think on child
care, think about capital childcare connections. Thank you. Uh thank you so much. Um I do I just want to say that when you said um I can work because I have child care. Um I can very very much relate to that. My kids
are a little bit older now, but I mean you're right when without child care it makes it very difficult for parents to get out there and you know work and and contribute. Um I did have a question. Uh so does CAP
um I saw that you help with like child care assistance. Is that helping families get aligned with the state funded childare assistant or is it in addition to No, that is the child care assistant program and we support them uh
like guiding them through the process because child care systems are very complicated to navigate. I've been working three years and I would say that now I I know a little bit more. Uh so it's very difficult to navigate. So we support them uh when they want to become
legal non-licensed. That's the only way that they can start receiving those payments from the state. So uh we provide them the the application. Right now it's all online. So and it started recently. So we support them through that process so they can uh comply with
all the requirements to accept pickup payment. That's how we call payment. uh on the other side the family is the one that is going to apply for the SEC as childcare assistant program. So the
provider has can accept SECAP because complied with all the requirements for LNL or family child care and then receive that family that has the actually the CCAP approved and that's how they connect and they can receive
those payments. Definitely a much needed much needed service. For sure. For sure. Did anyone else have any questions? Um, how long's the program been around? The FFN program been around. Is it semi- new? Been around for a few years. Uh,
the program was in Minnesota, has been in Minnesota for many years. However, uh, it took like another vision for the people that work with child care during COVID. During COVID, we had the impact
in child care centers. They were closing and they they were not working because of the pandemic. And the ones that actually were the heroes during the the COVID pandemic were those friends, grandma that said, "Okay, I will support
you. Go work. I will take care of your children." Oh, how many kids? It took like an additional uh impact in our communities when they started doing that and then the state uh said okay then let's support these people because they
are doing the work otherwise I don't know the economy was going to be so badly affected. How many children can they watch as it sounds like it's kind of a stepping stone to being a licensed daycare fully provider that way. So how many uh children can that u individual watch
until they get their full license? Okay. The informal caregivers uh they can have all the related children in her family under their care and they can have one family that is not related. So
maybe this auntie has three nephews and she accepted the one that lives across the street. So those are the that's the limitation for uh the child caregiver that is under this uh informal child care and that's
where we provide them. So if they want to uh like start a business doing child care receive seekup payments from the state then we uh take them through the phases to the steps so they can have more children under their care. Thank
you. Okay. I have a question. Um, so how long uh typically is that process to get like maybe a family member like to where they can receive payment to offer support because as we all know a lot of
people that do work, it's kind of hard finding like a daycare that's taking kids and you know it may be a little bit easier for maybe a family member to go through that process. How long how long is that process typically taking? So you
are talking uh becoming like legal non-licens for example. It depends. Uh legal non license is administered through the county. Uh at least in Klay County is through the county. Other counties are different a
agencies. And right now uh it's taking a little bit more because we just changed to a computer online application. But it all depends uh of the documents that the person has to submit because with their
documents is that where they are at the county and other agencies are going to uh put together the application and check if the the person qualify and there is a background check a fingerprint and it depends how long that takes is going to contribute to the
uh the process. So, it could be a month, it could be less, it could be more. It all depends on how quickly the documents are uh included in the application. Thank you. You're welcome.
If there are no more questions, you have I have a question. Oh, excuse me. And you can ask Malinga, too, if she's here and she can also questions. Well, I wanted to say thank you very much for your work, both of you. This is
so important. Uh wondering if there is any incomebased requirements for providers, for families. There are income uh limits for the families that are um applying for the
Sikup and it's based on the tables that we have about the poverty line. Um for child care givers or providers, uh they have a chart that says how much they can
uh actually charge per hour depending on the child's age. uh toddler, infant, preschool, they have different scales per hour and that is what the SAP
is going to cover. On top of that, if the child care provider uh is asking for extra over that top, then it's going to be out of pocket of the parents. Thank you. Yeah, you're welcome.
And before you step down, I do just want to say congratulations. Um I was just informed um that you were the Morehead uh Moreheart recipient for May. So congratulations. Sounds like very much deserved. Thank you. Thank
you. Thank you so much. Okay. Uh not seeing Fred. Um I will cover if Fred is not in attendance I will cover some Junth um event details a little bit later. Uh but Anna if you are ready
Is it working? Hello, my name is Anapura Rajes and I'm going to talk about Asian-American and Pacific Islander Heritage Month which is celebrated during the month of May. Asian-American and Pacific Islander Heritage Month is a
monthlong commemoration of the history and achievements of Asian-Americans, Native Hawaiians, and Pacific Islanders in the United States. AAPI Heritage Month takes place each year in May, which was permanently designated for the
com commemoration in 1992 by President George HW Bush. Asian-American and Pacific Islander Heritage Month celebrates Americans with ethnic origins in a variety of countries. The US Census Bureau defines
Asian as a person having origins in any of the original peoples of the Far East, Southeast Asia, or the Indian subcontinent, including for example, Cambodia, China, India, Japan, Korea, Malaysia, Pakistan, the Philippine
Islands, Thailand, and Vietnam. Native Hawaiian or Pacific Islander is defined as a person having origins in any of the original peoples of Hawaii, Guam, Samoa, or other Pacific Islands. Why the month of May? Asian-American and Pacific Islander
Heritage Month occurs in May to commemorate two important dates in American history. On May 7th, 1843, the first Japanese immigrants arrived in the United States. and May 10th, 1869 marked the completion of the transcontinental
railroad which many Chinese immigrants helped build. These dates were also the focus of the focus of the initial AsianPacific American Heritage Week established in 1978. how it
originated. Asian-American and Pacific Islander Heritage Month emerged from the AsianPacific American Heritage Week that the US Congress established in 1978 to coincide with anniversaries of significant events in
Asian-American-American history. In 1992, President George HW Bush permanently designated the month of May as an annual observance observance of AsianPacific American heritage. President Barack Obama changed the tributees name to Asian-American and
Pacific Islander Heritage Month in 2009. I would like to read an excerpt from the proclamation released from the president president's office on May 16th, 2025. Throughout our history, the United States has been strengthened by the contributions of citizens from every
background, united in shared pursuit of the American dream. As we recognize Asian-American and Pacific Islander Heritage Month, we celebrate the deep and enduring impact that Asian-Americans and Pacific Islanders have had on our nation. Forged by hardships and trial, they have never wavered in their
contributions toward the advancement of our common destiny. Today, more than 77,000 Asian-American and Pacific Islanders heroically serve our nation in the armed forces. Their stories along with many others have helped build a stronger,
safer, and more prosperous country. This month, we honor the proud legacy of Asian-Americans and Pacific Islanders in their contributions to the vast constellation of all our national triumphs. They are woven into the fabric of our republic, reminding us that the American spirit is one of resilience,
independence, and relentless pursuit of freedom and opportunity. Asian-American and Pacific Islander populations in our metro area is around 2%. Most of them work from major employers of the region. Several of them run their own successful businesses. I
would like to cheer for all my fellow American Asian-American and Pacific Islander members of the FM area for their hard work, contribution, and resilience that makes this community a vibrant place to live. One person who begets a special mention in this
2025 is this 2025 Mcnite award recipient Mrs. Yolk Sim Gunaratne who has headed cultural diversity resources since its inception in 1994. Her contributions to the new American and ethnically diverse groups in the region is beyond
parallels. The global market held on May 20th at the HemCom Center celebrated the Asian-American Heritage Month. Kudos to inclusive Morehead to bring a for bringing a few vendors that represent Asian heritage like Beast Thai Restaurant and Joy Studio. The heart and
soul kitchen menu was prepared by chefs from Thai Orchid as well. I would like to announce a couple of upcoming AAPI events. On the 4th of May or no, sorry, the 4th annual Asian Night Market on May
23rd, Friday, from 4:30 p.m. to 9:00 p.m. at the Fargo Air Museum, featuring more than 30 talented local and regional American and Pacific Islander artists, business owners, and creative and skilled artisans who showcase their
unique products and crafts. The Twin Cities Metro Asian Fair on May 31st from 11:00 a.m. to 7:00 p.m. at the Hill Day Performance Center in Plymouth, Minnesota. The largest Asian fair in the state with cultural performances, food vendors, arts, and exhibits representing
more than 15 countries. Thank you. So much Anna. Does anyone have any questions for her? I I will just add that I do know Yolk Sim from some inclusive Morehead events and she's very highly impactful individual. So I'm really excited to
hear that she was nominated for an award. All right, moving on. Do we have any community partners or citizens to be heard? Okay. Uh then I will turn over to you, Lieutenant, for a law enforcement
update. Hear me? All right. Uh well, thank you for having me here again tonight. Um Lieutenant Beta from the Morehead Police Department. Uh things are going well. We're still uh integrating our new chief into the department and uh giving him space to uh figure out uh where things
can improve in the department as we go forward. Uh so everything is going well on that front. Uh the one thing I did want to just bring forward um to share with the commission is um as of last week um two different programs uh inside of the Morhead Police Department uh came
together u it's our cadet program and our ice poet program. Um they're programs that are designed for recruitment of new officers into the Morhead Police Department. Uh cadet program is specifically uh administered by Morhead. uh it's unique to our
department and the ICE poet program is a statewide uh effort that's a grant funded program through the state. Uh the reason I bring that up is uh those two groups uh came together last week and they went down to Alexandria Technical College to start their last phase of their training for becoming an new
police officers. It's the skills program or lack of better terms it's the police academy. Uh those six candidates will be down there for the remainder uh until about the second week in July. Um, and of those six uh candidates, uh, and if I could back up just a little bit, uh,
part of the focus of the program is also diversifying our force to reflect the community uh, that we serve better. Uh, of those six candidates, uh, two of them are Kurdish officers or will be officers as soon as they complete the training. Uh, then the other two are female
officers and the candidates and one of the two females is actually Hispanic. Um, so she has a multiple uh portions of her background of her more diverse nature. Uh, so not only is the pro are the two programs u doing great things
for bringing new officers into our department, uh, we're seeing a lot of interest from a lot of the local law enforcement students from MState and MSUM. It's also accomplishing that mission of trying to diversify our force more. So we've actually got a brand new cadet. As cadets move on to uh begin the
final phase, we recruit new cadetses from the local colleges and one of our new cadetses. Uh actually just within the past couple of weeks, uh he's a Hispanic background and a very fluent Spanish speaker assisted with a homicide investigation uh which was instrumental uh to uh accomplishing that task. So
it's doing well. We're very happy with the results of that and we look forward to continuing that program into the future. So uh but with that I I have nothing else. So open to any questions. I got a question. Okay. So, um, as far as like the recruitment efforts, how,
um, so I know you said you're usually going through like the colleges. Is there other forms like where people could reach out if you know they have like some interest? Are they just like going through the department to kind of learn more about the program or is it is
it like on like your website or? Yep, there's uh there's information about our recruitment efforts on our website. Um also on our Facebook page. Um and we do have our full-time administrative sergeant. Uh his used to be a portion of his duties. Now today's day and age is a
large focus of his is recruitment uh efforts and onboarding of new employees. So if anybody wanted to reach out to the department, his office is right next door to mine. and I hear him every day answering phone calls about people interested in law enforcement. Uh so he is he's much more wellversed in this and
knows every in and out of the grant program because he's actually the first one to get it up and running in our department. This is the second iteration of the ice poets uh as they go forward. So it's a new program and we hope it continues and as if I'm not mistaken I believe it was approved for funding
through the state to continue on. So, thank you. Hi. Can you tell me about not the CAD cadets, but the other program? I'm not familiar with that. Yep. Um, so the ICE poet is I'm going to screw up the acronym, but it's a
intensive comprehensive police officer something training. I forget what the E is. Um, that's focused on nontraditional students. So, it's if a person has a four-year degree in any field, uh they can apply for the program, uh they will go down to
Alexandria Technical College or I believe Henipin Community College. There's a number of training sites throughout the state. Uh and they will go from they could have a background in psychology, uh business, any any four-year program or four-year degree. Uh and they'll go through the TR
training program. Um and they'll go from um initial integration understanding of law enforcement criminal justice continue on uh and then they will actually complete with the skills program. Uh so the ICE poets that started skills last week um they started
their initial training back in beginning of March and that was just for them at Alexandria Technical College. They're their own cohort. They train together and then this summer is when they integrate in with the other uh two-year programs that need to complete their skills as well.
So, how long is Oh, sorry. How long is the ice program then outside of the Alexandria training? Well, the ice poet program is uh all at Alexandria the entire time. Um, and I'd have to get out the calendar to figure it out, but it was the beginning of March and it'll complete in July for
them and that includes skills. Yes. Yeah. Thank you. Yep. Thank you, Lieutenant. Um, moving on to regular business. Nothing there. All right, we'll move into subcommittee reports. Um, and I
myself um along with Trent are on the awards committee, so this uh might be a good good time to bring up the Destiny Holiday H holiday award. Uh, so we were going to have um Fred uh the founder of
Fred's Dissonance uh here today. Unfortunately, he was unable to make it. Um, but he is a part of a group effort to put on the Morehead Junth celebration, which is on June 19th from 3:00 to 7:00 p.m. And Tanya, have we
confirmed which college this will be taking place at yet? It's at Concordia College from 3 to 7 on the 19th. Okay. So, uh, as we all know, and we voted to, um, have our, I think it's our second or
third, not sure, annual Destiny holiday award. Uh, the nominations were received through yesterday, end of day. Um, and we do have a subcommittee who is currently going over the nominations and the chosen um, recipient of the Destiny
Holiday Award will be notified by June 5th. And then at the Junth celebration at Concordia um at about roughly 4 to 5:00 pm they will be presented with the Destiny Holiday Award. So I want to thank everyone who was able to get out on social media and share the Destiny
Holiday Award. Um I think it's really important and I'm really looking forward to the Junth event. So that's my my update uh for awards. Um did any of the other subcommittees meet? Um the education
committee did meet. We talked about like a lot of things. We went to the um public library in Morehead and we talked about like Asian Pacific or Islander Bund like social media like trying to get like social media up for like the
human rights commission stuff like that. Okay. Yeah. Wonderful. Wonderful. Um I suppose you're looking forward to the new community center for the library. Yeah, that'll be great. Okay. Um, any other updates from the
subcommittees at this time? Okay. Um, reports, announcements, or upcoming events. And I do have a couple to mention here, so I'll let anyone else go first if they have anything to share. I know you shared a few already. Okay. Um, I did get from Seah.
Unfortunately, she had to drop from the call. Um but HRC um or Minnesota State Morehead uh so MState and Legal Services of Northwest Minnesota are hosting um or collaborating together and hosting at
the Barry Auditorium Barry Auditorium at the Christensen Alumni Center a community huddle. Uh so this will be June 5th. So coming up here um it's a meeting for interactive dialogue on the challenges facing our community. So this is this is
all-encompassing including um housing, civil justice, workforce development and education. So this community huddle is a space to listen, learn and collaborate on solutions uh for present- day issue and this is open to everybody in the
community. And then I also wanted to mention uh the farmers market is still ongoing um Tuesday, June 3rd uh 3:30 to 6:30 p.m. And something I forgot to mention last
month um is that SNAP uh or EBT benefits um not only can those be used at the farmers market um but they're tripled. Your dollars are tripled at the farmers market. So, for $10 in SNAP dollars, you get 30 tokens to spend at the farmers
market. I think that's absolutely wonderful. Um, and I apologize that wasn't mentioned last month. Um, one more event, um, we have coming up, uh, June 20th, um, the
Scandinavian Festival. Um, and this is put on by the Nordic Culture Clubs. It's the Scandinavian Festival on Friday, June 20th at 9:30 a.m. Uh where you can enjoy musical performances, talented folk artists and authors, Scandinavian
vendors, um and a unique items and engaging children's activities. And this will be at the Viking Encampment in Viking Ship Park. And with that, I do also want to remind everyone that we will not be meeting in
June um in observance of Junth. With that said, is there anything else to add? Okay. Any new business? Okay. With that, we will adjourn at 5:46 p.m. Thank you so much
for your time.
