Provider meeting this Friday, October 18th, from 9:00am-11:00am. As usual, we are at the Salvation Army Church (1110 S Puget Sound Ave, Tacoma, WA  98405). 

 

This weeks’ agenda is again pretty full. The agenda is attached - I’ll bring hard copies to the meeting.  The executive summary:

·         League of Women Voters Journalism study

·         Advocacy Update

·         We Care Daily Clinics will present on their about their new medication assisted treatment and behavioral health counseling programs.

·         Racial Equity forum – the bulk of our time will be spent developing a work plan.  The Ask from the Racial Equity Subgroup

o   E-mail suggestions and comments if you won’t be here or want to be anonymous – if you are uncomfortable about talking about your agency – we’ll talk anonymously for you

o   Invite some speakers or guest to attend – just bring them with you – clients, guests, community members, experts.  If the group can benefit from a 3-5 minutes presentation from someone, let us know.

o   We’ll have 2-5 questions for the breakout groups to address. 

o   Please come prepared to talk about the racial equity gap.

 

Thanks,

  -Gerrit
