Wiki conversation – how is it working for us?
Acronym/name for committee – RNC or something else?
We had a long discussion on getting started with the Community Connector concept – not waiting for board to approve LRC’s. Formalization can come in phase two.
We’ll probably get more feedback, but maybe after we move forward with the above.
What are we asking the board to approve?
To test the manual and the model of empowering some community connectors. A big shift in our energy, separating the LRC approval process/representation issue from our core help-people-do-the-work function.
People are promoting community – we are providing some tools and approaches.
We are also setting up an information exchange hub: wiki plus listserv. Eventually to move to FIC’s new wiki hub, providing a way to share what’s going on around the country – to cross-fertilize local/regional activity.
Ask InReach! Definitely they’ll be involved in ID’ing LRC. Approval process styled after NomCom.
Rewrite online to have Community Connectors, disclaimer that they are not official FIC reps.
Publication of FIC literature – flyers, etc.
An article in the next newsletter that announces what we are doing and invites members who are interested to contact us.
Continue training/conversations about how to help people feel connected if they are not on the wiki active.
