Key Takeaways &

Action Items

 
9 AM Invoicing Information Sylvia –          Termegeddon invoices were being sent to the info@ gmail account, Aaron did not have access to that email until February

–          Requested FirstTracks documentation for charging us for website updates, still waiting for details

–          Considering this, Aaron will find a way to download the website information or work with NHFV/PIC web person to find how to keep the website information just in case it gets taken down while we wait for documentation

–          Sylvia and Michelle Lewis from PIC met with Dee to discuss how to better support CYCC, Dee will share her recs at the May meeting

–          Could we just cancel the website maintenance? Yes, because we don’t have any kind of maintenance agreement which is not best practice

–          Could we move to NHFV website? Yes, other councils are like YEAH and birth to 3

–          Just waiting on the documentation so we can approve the expenditures

 
  Strategic Planning Information Sylvia –          Examining the role of admin support and the fiscal agent in assisting the council

–          Terri Olsen Martin is coming to give the history of the council because she was involved in the beginning

–          We are going to look 126-J and the 4 main tenets to see how we can best accomplish the main charges of the council, once this is done, we can plan for the upcoming year

–          Discuss leadership changes and what that will look like, co-chairs, chairs of committees

–          See how we can have more representation from areas of the state that are underrepresented by area agencies/regions that are not on the council

–          Can we have members do prep work before? Yes, thinking about what the charges mean/what kinds of things they want to do

–          Sylvia assured that NHFV/PIC would support CYCC in needed work ahead, and will need to address any budget line changes as may be required

–          equity in everyone’s participation

–          to accomplish work of CYCC, we may propose changes to the meeting schedule for the Council to vote on

–          We are all going to work through this together

–          Things have changed a lot since the council was created in the 90’s so the by-laws may have to reflect that as the work to grow

 

 

Next Meeting:  Aaron will send out reminders for both the May meeting and strategic planning, next meeting is May 13th
