| |COMPREHENSIVE PLAN REVIEW |
| | |
| |The CDC reviewed the Comprehensive Plan and assessed their completion of their objectives. |
| | |
| |The following is what was sent to Pat Virga by CDC Chair Jessica Diaz and Pat’s responses: |
| | |
|Old/New Business, Cont’d |Edits: |
| |1. Objective I.5/ action I.5.c- these networking meetings have |
| |primarily been conducted by the EIIHA work group, should CDC be doing |
| |something additional to meet this objective or should it just be the |
| |EIIHA work group? I will bring this up to P&D Committee for possible |
| |reassignment of responsibility. |
| | |
| |Clarification: |
| |1. Objective I.7/action 1.7b- We are confused when you say co-location |
| |of services? Co-location means more than one service category is |
| |provided at a single location. The intent of the Plan is to encourage |
| |co-location of as many services as possible, especially the core |
| |services. We want to know consumer opinion on whether co-location |
| |would benefit them. |
| | |
| |2.Objective 1V.5/action IV.5.b and 5.d- What has the EIIHA workgroup |
| |done to meet these objectives? It seems very general and we wanted |
| |more clarifications on what is being asked. Time frame should probably |
| |be "ongoing" as well. EIIHA/Outreach Work Group may take |
| |responsibility for these activities, although both groups should be |
| |advocating for awareness and elimination of stigma. I will take this |
| |back to P&D Committee as well. |
| | |
| |Everything else seems to be on track as far as our items are |
| |concerned. If you need any info on what was accomplished/ or what's in |
| |the works, just let me know I will be asking for completion dates for |
| |CDC-related actions. More on that later. Please extend our thanks to |
| |CDC for working on this. |
| | |
| |Additionally: In addition to reviewing the Comprehensive plan, the CDC do more to address the Social Media aspect and Educational |
| |arm of the Plan and more on the upcoming World AIDS Day. MJ will resend the “Why Stay in Care” to the CDC for review. |
| | |
| | |
|Actions to be Taken |Responsible Party |Open |Closed |
|Re send out “Why Stay in Care” to CDC |Admin |6/20/14 | |
|DAY OF CAPACITY |DAY OF CAPACITY |
| | |
| |Day of Capacity will be at Maggiano’s with a special meeting menu on October 7, 2014. |
| | |
| |It was suggested that the CDC address things the Council generally doesn’t have time to spend time on - Maybe break into groups to |
| |concentrate on different topics (15 minutes). |
| |The Day |
| |Part 1: Getting to know you (Speed dating) - Vernon will flush it out |
| |Part 2: Stigma ( In a team building way) (Internal/External) |
| |Part 3: Part A Jeopardy (MJ will look at) |
| |Also suggested a personal trainer. |
| | |
| |Determine if DOC is will be a ½ day or full day – Flush it out |
| |It was suggested to use an Outside facilitator. Jess will reach out to Jerry Dillard for suggestions of facilitators. |
| |Ideas generated at last meeting: |
| |Roles and responsibilities (How to explore). Clues, a game, Jeopardy, Providers/Consumers (Wife Swap) |
| |Part A Manual Highlight through different roles |
| |Dates: October 7, 2014 |
