Local nonprofit announces Welcoming Week kickoff as commission finalizes resolution
Summary
SHARE announced a Welcoming Week kickoff event in Lebanon to coincide with the council consideration of the welcoming resolution, and commission members discussed shifting language toward providing information rather than building resources.
Martha Tecca, the local nonprofit representative on the DEI commission, told members that SHARE is organizing a community event to kick off Welcoming Week in Lebanon the evening of the forthcoming council meeting, and that organizers are finalizing logistics. "We are, SHARE is, organizing a community event, which is, at the kickoff of welcoming week... It's gonna be that evening," she said.
Commissioners used the announcement as context for adjusting the draft resolution: they agreed to change language from 'provide resources' to 'provide information' about rights and contact points, so the city does not imply it will directly fund or create services. Members suggested the DEI commission would review implementation after the council votes on the resolution.
