1 Denver Office of Stategic Partnerships 2011 annual
2 2011 Annual Report Dear DOSP Partners and Supporters, 2011 has been quite a year of transition and change. We have had the privilege of continuing our work under the leadership of both Mayor Vidal and Mayor Hancock, as well as many newly elected City Council members. We have watched enthusiastically as the new administration has filled appointments for the majority of leadership roles within the City. We see the energy and interest around the Mayor s broad reaching vision that We are all Denver. It s clear to us that DOSP, and its focus on serving as a bridge between the City and the nonprofit sector, has a critical role in supporting that vision. Through all the change, the thing that remains is our fundamental commitment to building partnerships between local government and nonprofits to address the complex social issues that face us today. We continue to focus on building individual skills, tools, knowledge, and access for nonprofit and City agency staff to create partnerships; engaging in systemic efforts to enhance the environment of support for nonprofits in our City; and leveraging, coordinating, and maximizing resources to support nonprofit and City work in our community. We are so excited and proud to share our 2011 Annual Report with you, having had tremendous success in our programs throughout this year. We can t wait to see what 2012 will bring!

3 Connecting Government and Community Trainings DOSP offers multiple trainings throughout the year, designed to help increase skills, knowledge, tools and connections to encourage nonprofits and City agencies to engage in partnerships. DOSP s trainings for nonprofits and City agencies: Working Effectively with Local Government and Working Effectively with Nonprofits offer interactive opportunities to learn the fundamentals of building a strong government-nonprofit partnership. At the quarterly Spotlight On series, DOSP invites nonprofit and City staff to engage in an in-depth exploration of a highlighted City agency sessions focused on the Mayor s Office of Education and Children, the Department of Human Services, and Community Planning and Development. 10 trainings delivered to 362 nonprofit and City agency participants 78% felt better prepared to build partnerships with local government or nonprofits 70% used tools and knowledge from DOSP workshops to enhance their organizational readiness to partner 51% had actually formed a new cross-sectoral partnership in the six months since their workshop DOSP Trainings serve as the first step for both nonprofit and City staff to develop an understanding for each other s strengths and capacities, to learn a common language, and to develop relationships. From there, the relationships build our ability to work together to plan projects, coordinate services, and secure resources. Wendy Hawthorne, Groundwork Denver In 2012, DOSP will again offer Working Effectively with Local Government and Working Effectively with Nonprofits, as well as providing a new opportunity to participate in small group consultation sessions as follow up to the workshops. The Spotlight On series will be offered twice and will highlight the City of Denver under Mayor Hancock and Human Rights and Community Partnerships.

7 Maximizing Resources Government Funding Resources In order to enhance knowledge and skills related to federal grantwriting, DOSP offered a series of trainings for nonprofits and City agencies on grantwriting and reporting in Additionally, the Office provided more targeted training to the ten participants in the year-long City Grants Fellowship Program, building skills around researching, developing, writing, and monitoring federal grants. For the first half of the year, DOSP also managed the City s contract federal grantwriters, making their services around grants research and grantwriting available to nonprofits throughout the City. The continuing education provided by DOSP on grants has been helpful. I continue to use the pointers I learned from these trainings and serve as a resource to others in my department. Robin Valdez, Department of Environmental Health 106 individuals received training in federal grantwriting and reporting 86% better understand what is required to submit a federal grant 57% increased knowledge around researching and finding federal grant opportunities While managed by DOSP, the City s federal grantwriters submitted $16 million worth of federal grant requests In 2012, DOSP will continue to offer trainings on the government funding landscape at the federal, state, and local level. DOSP will also be launching the Funding and Contracting Efficiency (FACE) Initiative, designed to improve the processes by which the City of Denver gives out grants to nonprofit organizations.
8 Maximizing Resources Energy Efficiency Assistance Funding As part of its commitment to maximizing resources to nonprofit organizations, DOSP provides direct funding of approximately $2 million annually to nonprofit organizations to support energy efficiency efforts benefitting low-income Denver residents or nonprofits who serve these residents. Funding provides support for organizations to engage in outreach, conduct energy audits, and engage in energy efficiency retrofits and weatherization upgrades to homes and nonprofit facilities throughout the city. This funding comes to DOSP through the City s Franchise Agreement with Xcel Energy. Grantmaking decisions are made annually by the Facilities and Energy Efficiency Advisory Board.

The extensive updates provided through NEEP at Victory Apartments have drastically reduced our energy expenses and dramatically improved the living environment. Derek Kuykendall, Providence 8
9 Maximizing Resources Residential Energy Efficiency $1,300,000 of DOSP Energy Efficiency Assistance Funds invested 1,791 houses receiving energy audits and energy efficiency upgrades $240,488 saved for families in energy costs 650,571 kwh and 40,993 therms saved We have found that the energy saving improvements provided by this program are valued by the low and moderate income homeowners that the Denver Urban Renewal Authority programs serves. We believe that the long term financial benefit of this program is going to serve not only the homeowners, but the community as a whole. Marianne LeClair, Denver Urban Renewal Authority 2011 Grantees: Denver Urban Renewal Authority, Energy Outreach Colorado/ Mile High Youth Corps, Groundwork Denver, Rebuilding Together Metro Denver Peeking Ahead: In 2012, DOSP will invest another $1.4 million in nonprofits conducting energy efficiency work in the community, impacting an estimated 2,200 households.
10 Supporting Collaboration Green and Healthy Homes Initiative The Green and Healthy Homes Initiative (GHHI) transforms existing housing structures into green, safe and healthy homes for Denver s low- to moderate-income residents. Working in partnership with government, philanthropic and local not-for-profit organizations, GHHI facilitates collaboration to address weatherization, energy efficiency, leadbased paint hazards, asthma and other health- and safety-related issues in a comprehensive a manner. Operated by the Coalition to End Childhood Lead Poisoning, which is headquartered in Baltimore, DOSP houses the Denver component of a national effort comprised of 17 sites. The GHHI inspires hope through dedicated collaboration that we can save more lives in the low income community and improve the overall quality of life for many more.

11 Supporting Collaboration Denver Transit Oriented Development Fund The Denver Transit Oriented Development (TOD) Fund is a project designed to create and preserve affordable housing along current and future transit corridors. This revolving loan fund, managed by Enterprise Community Partners and deployed by the Urban Land Conservancy, provides needed resources to acquire properties at the site of future light rail stations and along major bus corridors where development is expected to occur. This effort protects the affordability of housing around these sites, even when land and property values rise. DOSP provided a $2 million initial investment in the fund, which launched in Urban Land Conservancy s success in closing on 6 Transit Oriented Development (TOD) acquisitions in last 18 months stems from a number of remarkable local and national partnerships. DOSP was essential to getting the TOD Fund established with its initial investment and for continued efforts in working with us on Shared Spaces as a part of these real estate acquisitions. ULC and the rest of the Denver community are lucky to have DOSP as a great partner. Aaron Miripol, Urban Land Conservancy $15 million total fund $9 million deployed 6 properties totaling 5.9 acres purchased Created or preserved 404 units of affordable housing During 2012, construction will start on two of the acquired sites and large scale planning efforts will continue at two others will also bring new opportunities to identify sites along the East Corridor Commuter Line, Gold Commuter Line, and Northwest Commuter Line, and the fund may have opportunities to expand to neighboring municipalities.
