Mashpee Inclusion and Diversity Committee <br /> 16 Great Neck Road North <br />Mashpee, MA 02649 <br />like this committee. She noted it was both an honor and a pleasure to share that time. A retired <br />officer, Mr. Quilty, meets with people at the Senior Center once a month and Chairwoman met <br />with him and took some notes. Massachusetts is the only state that requires officers in every <br />town for veterans. There is a town budget for veterans. It does not just apply to veterans but <br />also wives, widows, and children. <br /> <br />NEW BUSINESS <br />Changing of the Guard: Jayden, Amna, Ayesha, Aiman <br />The Committee wishes Amna and Jayden well and are appreciative of all their efforts. They <br />wanted a graduation tassel representing MIDC so they picked the color purple. Amna was <br />surprised that this Committee did so much and how much planning goes into events. It was a <br />great opportunity and she is proud that Mashpee recognizes the need for this committee. <br />Jayden is fascinated by behind the scenes work, and a lot of people don’t know what services <br />are available to them in this town. <br /> <br />Amna is going to UMASS Boston and Jayden is going to UMASS Amherst, both for finance. <br />Aiman is both excited and nervous to join MIDC but she wants to do all she can and be <br />involved as much as she can. <br /> <br />Reception for Who We Are <br />Ms. Stevenson wants to have a mocktail reception for the exhibit. She would like to send out <br />actual invitations to all committees, department heads, elected officials, and Town Hall <br />employees. She would like everyone to come together and wear name tags. <br /> <br />Mr. Klein reiterated that committees don’t even talk to one another. We have a situation going <br />on in town regarding the sewer. <br /> <br />Ms. Stevenson referenced an editorial in The Enterprise that talked about communication. She <br />wants it to be an RSVP event. She will communicate with the Select Board Chairman. She is <br />thinking a weekday evening from 6:00P.M.- 7:00P.M. <br /> <br />Initiate plan for “Belonging Project” <br />Chairwoman Stevenson met this woman who volunteered at hospitals who would get <br />volunteers together. What are we trying to do? We need to come up with a name for this effort. <br />It goes beyond social media. <br /> <br />Elana Doyle would like to come back and work with this Committee now that she has time with <br />her children in school. She used to say she didn’t know her own neighbors. <br />4 <br /> <br /> <br />
