IMP. IMBO <br /> d"fr,,{ynr,fw VhP. <br /> w Mashpee lncCusion and'Diversity Committee <br /> 16 Great Weck RoadWorth <br /> 'Alashyee, AMA 02649 <br /> Preparation for School Committee meeting on September 18th <br /> Chair commented the School Committee meeting is tomorrow evening. Marie Blackburn will <br /> accompany her to the meeting as a Barnstable County Human Rights Advisory liaison. Ms. <br /> Stevenson called Cathy Lewis to see if there was anything that MIDC could do to assist in the <br /> submission of an article. <br /> Ms. Stevenson would like to know what it is they are trying to accomplish. The schools seem to <br /> bear the burden of what's going on in the community. How do we get the community to care? <br /> Mr. Fand made a good point earlier about being a connected community. <br /> Mr. Klein would like to know how MIDC can help them and what exactly they are looking for. <br /> He reiterated the time they were looked to for support but their hands were tied. <br /> Ms. Hanscom stated there is a gap in our community, where the school has its own process, <br /> but it's not just about the schools, this is a bigger conversation. How does this Committee <br /> support the school? There will be a presentation on bullying regulations and how to handle <br /> interpersonal conflicts. A lot of these meetings and happenings occur, but communication is <br /> missing among agencies. How do we build a system inclusive of more voices and community <br /> outreach? Does this look like a crisis response team within the town. We have the ability to <br /> invite experts to come and speak to us. <br /> NEW BUSINESS <br /> Election of Officers: Chair and Vice Chair <br /> Winnie Johnson Graham is stepping down. The role of the Vice Chair is to run the meeting if <br /> the Chair cannot attend, someone is required to run the meeting. <br /> Creation of Community Advisor Group <br /> There are at least 10 potential Mashpee citizens the Chair can recall that would like to be a <br /> part of this group in an advisory capacity. She recently met a man at the Senior Center who is <br /> wheelchair bound and she has invited him to attend. She will reach out to a friend in the <br /> LGBTQ community. The couple in Southport who wanted to fund the antisemitism training still <br /> want to participate. We can do something exciting now and we are currently in need of a new <br /> big project. <br /> ADJOURNMENT <br /> MOTION: <br /> Richard Klein made a motion to adjourn the meeting of the MIDC at 6:25p.m. <br /> Seconded by Rolf Brandt. All in favor. <br /> 5 <br />
