Commission members and public commentators used the meeting to highlight upcoming outreach and community events in Carlisle.
A commission member said the YWCA is planning a human-trafficking "lunch and learn" for the county on April 22; the district attorney's office will participate.
The commission announced Carlisle Pride Week will run June 14–20, with activities scheduled daily. Commissioners asked residents to observe Juneteenth on June 19 and attend Juneteenth events rather than holding other celebrations on that day.
Public speaker Wanda Hunter listed community events including a Black Arts Festival on Feb. 22 at the Vault (time not specified) and a Moving Circles friendship dinner at New Life Church at the corner of East North and East Bedford in Carlisle. She said the dinner is scheduled for 6 to 8:30 p.m. and is open to the public; attendees are asked to bring a covered dish but may attend without bringing food.
No formal votes were taken on outreach items; commissioners indicated support for continuing outreach and for publicizing events more widely.
