Council revives DB Services advisory work, sets next meeting for March 7
Summary
Members heard that CBH's Carrie Seals revived the Developmental Disabilities (DB) Services advisory group and that the Human Services Advisory Council moved its March meeting from March 6 to March 7 to accommodate officer elections and a county council presentation.
At the February 6 meeting participants discussed committee logistics and two next steps: reviving the DB Services advisory group and rescheduling the March meeting.
DB Services advisory group: Randy said CBH's new employee Carrie Seals has revived a Developmental Disabilities (DB) Services advisory group that had been dormant for years. Randy said the revived group included parents and agencies at its first meeting and that staff will propose bylaws and officer roles at a future meeting. "Carrie is a new employee of CBH," the transcript notes; she had been invited to observe the advisory council meeting.
Meeting schedule and officers: The council agreed to elect officers in March and to reschedule the regular March 6 meeting to March 7 at 3:00 p.m. so county council (Anthony Pope) can present ethics training and the council can accommodate officer business; several members noted conflicts with March 6 and confirmed March 7 at 3 p.m. as the new date.
Why it matters: Reviving the DB Services advisory group could reestablish stakeholder input on developmental-disability services. The March meeting change ensures the council can host county council's planned ethics presentation and conduct officer elections.
Next steps: Randy said he will send an e-mail with DB Services advisory details and the council confirmed the March 7, 3:00 p.m. meeting time; council staff will coordinate with county council about availability and potential alternate dates if necessary.
