It was great to see all the new, and returning, faces at our Guide Team meeting on May 5th!  We had 38 attendees!

See the meeting minutes below (and attached), as well as the PowerPoint and handouts from the Addressing Islamophobia presentation.

  3. Mobilizing Action for Resilient Communities (MARC) Project Updates  Rosa Ana Lozada gave a brief description of the MARC project, noting that the Guide Team is one of 14 entities nationwide who received this one-time grant to support efforts of increasing awareness of ACEs and TIC and increasing resilience, with Harmonium serving as the backbone entity for our local efforts.  Our accomplishments thus far with the help of the grant has been completion of our updated Strategic Plan, adding a focus on community engagement and authentic community voice, including trauma across the lifespan in training curriculum, and highlighting policy opportunities at the local, state, national and organizational levels.  The grant ends at the end of October 2017.
