Committee sets two community meetings; opts for flyers and TLA location
Summary
The ad hoc committee set community engagement meetings for Sept. 20 and Oct. 11, substituted Teacher Learning Academy for a church venue and prioritized simple graphic flyers distributed through churches and community centers.
The Powers ad hoc committee confirmed two countywide community engagement meetings for Sept. 20 and Oct. 11 and replaced one proposed venue with the Teacher Learning Academy (TLA) on Union.
Chair instructed staff to ‘‘strike 920 Pursuit Of God Church and insert teacher and learning, academy on Union’’ for the location the committee will use for outreach. Members agreed on simple, graphic flyers to distribute through churches and community centers; the chair emphasized mass distribution and suggested flyers with ‘‘who, what, where, when’’ for broad reach.
Why it matters: the committee is aiming for countywide participation and discussed multiple locations (north/south) and timing that will allow faith partners to announce meetings from church pulpits two Sundays before the event.
Next steps: members volunteered to help design and distribute flyers; the committee discussed releasing a press statement roughly two weeks before meetings depending on reauthorization timing.
