Committee considers attendance outreach and more liaison reports, proposes workgroups
Summary
Chair Patricia Sullivan and Member Kristine Haataja urged steps to improve early attendance and to increase liaison reports and member participation in workgroups; Haataja recommended direct phone-call reminders used at a CalBHBC meeting and suggested a brainstorming session at the next full board meeting.
Committee leaders raised concerns about low early attendance and discussed multiple strategies to boost participation and engagement. Chair Patricia Sullivan noted that recent meetings have nearly lacked quorum at the start and asked members to consider reminder systems and other outreach. Member Kristine Haataja said that in a recent CalBHBC meeting, direct phone-call reminders "significantly improved attendance," and she recommended adopting similar methods.
The committee also discussed increasing liaison reports focused on behavioral health topics and encouraged members, especially newer ones, to take part in workgroups. Sullivan suggested forming a workgroup to develop hybrid-meeting policies and compliance procedures; Haataja proposed drafting a note for next meeting materials to introduce a brainstorming session and expected outcomes. No formal workgroups were created at this meeting.
