IMP. IMBO <br /> d"fr,,{yn,r,fw VhP. <br /> w Mashpee lncCusion and'Diversity Committee <br /> 16 Great Neck Road Worth <br /> 'VLashpee, AMA 02649 <br /> Mr. Klein would like to resurrect the brochure and get that out to different store fronts or public <br /> buildings around town. Someone would have to committo refilling them every so often. He <br /> noted this Committee was lucky to be fully represented, it's unfortunate there aren't more <br /> people interested, as there are many vacancies for town boards and committees town wide. <br /> Mr. Kupferman commented with talk about more people joining and representing, we need to <br /> be more visible. For him, age is low on the list as far as being diverse, culturallyand racially he <br /> would prefer to see more representation. <br /> Ms. Doyle suggested diversifying the things the group wants to do or represent, not <br /> necessarilyjust events. Everyone has different ideas of what diversity looks like with different <br /> calibers, and that can be broken down into smaller more feasible accomplishments. <br /> Mr. Klein stated Michaela Colombo offered a lecture about grant writing at the Town Hall and <br /> Public library. Last Friday, four people showed up, the week prior only one showed up and it <br /> was her husband. He is trying to argue that it is hard to activate community participation even <br /> through the newspaper at times. <br /> Ms. Doyle tries to stay abreast of different media streams and involved in the community <br /> happenings, but she doesn't see advertising forcertain things, there are differentways in <br /> which someone can get the word out to broaderamounts of people. <br /> Mr. Klein referenced the column being excellent in noting Diversity and Inclusion at the top, he <br /> wants to add that maybe a time, date, and place can be given to encourage people to attend <br /> the meetings. <br /> Mission Impact <br /> Are we making an impact and where? Chairwent to the Senior Center to find volunteers for <br /> RAD and people were not aware of what Race Amity Day was. <br /> Ms. Doyle thinks back to the first projects for veterans parking and child care at Town <br /> Meetings. These are two very different but small subsections of the community, they did <br /> impactful things that caught the attention of the community in different ways. A natural buzz is <br /> created the more that gets accomplished. Race Amity Day is the biggest thing that has taken <br /> off since then. <br /> Mr. Klein went back to the brochure saying it was nice and we just lost track of it. It neared the <br /> launch of RAD so one took off and the other fizzled out. <br /> 4 <br />
