Attached and embedded below can be found our "meeting minutes". Thanks for compiling notes, Anna! And thanks all for attending and enjoying a birthday celebration for Jane and Ramy!
As I promised in the meeting, I created a "Trauma-Informed Schools" Collection (on left-hand side of the home page). For everyone that posts, be sure if schools related to click on the TI schools box so it gets captured in that group.
Also, I spoke to Jane after our meeting (we missed you, Jane!) and she said two things:
1. Sonoma Co did an evaluation of Paper Tigers but it was directed to selected audiences ( https://www.pacesconnection.com/...per-tiger-screenings) MIGHT WE WANT TO SHOW PAPER TIGERS TO COUNTY HHS EMPLOYEES SOME TIME DURING THE WEEK? We could conduct an eval of that showing.
2. Jane felt there needed to be some kind of facilitated discussion after the film showing- it is bound to elicit discussion and we would hate to send folks away without being able to help them process it some. DO WE HAVE ANYONE WILLING TO FACILITATE THE EVENTS?
