MINUTES Present: Norma Turner, Connie Hyatt, and Florence Bucierka Discussion was held concerning the July meeting about 501c3 status and the recent Board decision to bring the issue to the membership. A vote will be taken to proceed or not proceed starting the process to become a 501c3 at the October membership meeting. Summaries of the July blue board items will be available at the membership meeting - Florence will have Jennifer make copies. The committee agreed to offer to develop the proposed governing rules if the membership wishes to become a 501c3. The need to move policies out of the bylaws was discussed. Policies are relatively easy to change and should stand alone. By-laws are more difficult to change and should be as simple as possible. The policies,previously approved by PW, but located in several places were pulled together. Each policy was written onto a single page. Norma will ask Jane Shefler, the chair, to sign and date them all. They will be kept in a Policy Manual. Norma took care of thank you's to Jennifer Zaccardo and Helen Dawley who assisted in the July discussion of designation possibilities for Prevention Works!. Connie suggested we insert non-discrimination language in Prevention Works! policies and procedures. Florence will see what the county has which might be appropriate. The Foster Parent Association Board was given a manual by the state office on how to become a 501c3. Florence will try to borrow for the committee. Nest committee meeting date will depend on the action of the next Prevention Works! general meeting. |
