FORA urges donations, shares resources and warns of member welfare concerns
Summary
FORA asked chapters to donate and highlighted available services (EES assistance, outreach, audit training, expungement support). The report also flagged recent member deaths across the state and urged chapters to check on residents and leadership practices.
The FORA report emphasized the organization’s support services, encouraged donations, and reminded houses to submit monthly reports and update contact lists. FORA listed available resources including Equal Expense Share assistance, outreach services, training, resource sharing, and an expungement collaboration with Kansas Legal Services.
FORA also urged houses to consider stronger local check-ins and to revisit recovery-focused practices after reporting that three members across the state died within about a week-and-a-half. The presenter asked chapters to consider whether they are “meeting the need” for current residents and to pay attention to leadership behavior and member support. FORA listed practical reminders about inspections and entry rights, treasurer check-signing guidelines, and audit-training opportunities (audit training scheduled March 29 in Kansas City).
