One way to empower a CAA board is to give it the tools it needs to educate itself. With this in mind, CAPLAW has created a self-training tool to provide a nonprofit CAA board with the guidance and information it needs to teach itself about the Community Service Block Grant Act (CSBG) tripartite board requirements. This tool consists of questions, quizzes, exercises, and resources for the board to work through with the help of a board member facilitator.

The full tool includes four main sections:

Part I: General Tripartite Board Composition and Selection Information
Facilitator Packet | PowerPoint

Part II: Public Official Sector
Facilitator Packet | PowerPoint

Part III: Low-Income Representative Sector
Facilitator Packet | PowerPoint

Part IV: Private Sector
Facilitator Packet | PowerPoint
