Board frames SMART goals around outreach, domestic‑violence awareness, and event presence
Summary
During breakout sessions members prioritized measurable outreach actions—QR codes/trackable links, quarterly task-force meetings for domestic-violence awareness, and tabling at two local events per quarter—so the board can measure engagement and community reach in 2026–27.
Board members split into breakout groups to identify priority activities and draft SMART goals. Common proposals included creating measurable outreach (a dedicated web link or QR code to track clicks), signing up board members for site walks and outreach events, and presenting biannual public talks. Members suggested focusing on achievable, trackable activities (for example, two community events per quarter) rather than overly ambitious, hard-to-sustain plans.
A domestic-violence subgroup outlined specific SMART goals for October (Domestic Violence Awareness Month): create a dedicated awareness webpage or link, hold quarterly task-force meetings, and attend targeted community events to share resources. The subgroup recommended a sign‑up list for site visits and outreach to ensure volunteer participation is predictable and sustainable.
Members emphasized partnership-based approaches—tabling at Pride and library events, working with local nonprofits, and coordinating with the housing division—to expand reach without creating unmanageable staff burdens. The breakout work will feed into the board’s 2026–27 work plan and the staff report to city council where applicable.
