*45. Please upload a completed CRF Grant Budget Form. CRF Budget Form.xlsx Public Purpose of Requested Funds Per §2-138 of the Hawai'i County Code 1983 (2016 Edition, as amended), the County may grant an award only if the proposed program or service provides direct public benefits and fulfills a public purpose within the County. 46. According to §2-136, "public purpose" is defined as a benefit to, improvement of, or promotion of the interests in the following areas. Please select all the public benefits to be derived from your County fund request: Educational concerns Needs of the poor, youth, the aged, those with physical or emotional disabilities Public health and welfare of the people and the environment Victims of crimes Victims of health or social crises 47. In 2,000 characters or less, describe the measurable outcomes you aim to achieve with these funds. Ku'ikahi Mediation Center plans to hold 12 free Brown Bag Lunch Talks on Zoom, featuring 12 different speakers presenting on 12 distinct topics. Each talk is expected to attract an average of 35 participants, for a total live Zoom reach of 420, and the recorded talks are anticipated to receive an additional 35 post -talk viewers each, also totaling 420 on YouTube. Surveys of attendees indicate that 90% report learning something new and useful, and 95% would recommend the series to others. According to the CPP Global Human Capital Report 2008, employees in U.S. companies spend approximately 2.8 hours per week dealing with conflict, equating to about $359 billion in paid hours in 2008 that could otherwise be devoted to productive work, and 57% of U.S. employees had never received training in managing workplace conflict. Of those globally who did receive training, 95% stated it helped them, and 85% changed the way they approach conflict over their working lives. Investing in skills -building at the front end helps prevent and mitigate problems at the back end. Ku'ikahi addresses this need by offering high -quality, locally available community education on topics such as listening, communication, conflict management, mediation, negotiation, teamwork, and more. This programming fills a training gap, as the University of Hawai'i at Hilo no longer offers non- credit professional development classes, and Hawaii Community College EDvance provides only online asynchronous courses. 48.
