annmartindale@sympatico.ca Notes:
- Strategy for CWDO's upcoming "Town Hall" meeting with
Charles Beer
a. Have a
short and simple registration form to register for room, name,
address, email, accommodations needed, etc. - Tracy will set
this up (Tracy created it after the meeting. Link is
https://www.formdesk.com/odell/AODA_Meeting_Register)b.
Let people know drop-ins are also welcome if they forget
to register.
c. Keep the survey as a
standalone. Link is
https://www.formdesk.com/odell/AODA_Meeting_Survey
d. Plan sequence of discussion
flowing from themes raised in the
survey
e. Send emails with a calendar
notification so that people have more than one
reminder
f. Let people know there will be
help tutorials
2. Survey to
members to gather questions and comments
a. Has been
distributed through our email blasts
b.
Only 3 people have responded to
date
3. Ideas for getting a
strong turnout for the meeting
a. Personal
contact - phone, email members after next
Wednesday
b. Use Facebook, Twitter to
share info - would be worthwhile for CWDO to have a Facebook
and Twitter account. Jeff will set this up for us;
Brian can help us with
this as well and is happy to phone people; can schedule events
through Facebook too (Ann will schedule it)
c.
We should phone members of this committee first; Tracy can make a list of who
could phone who.
4. AODA
messages are coming through the system and we should
distribute them to members - people on this committee and our
board members.
Pat
could forward to this finite number of people.
She is not fully trained in constant contact yet. Might
be duplicating for some people, but no disadvantage to
that. With more info, could engage people.
5.
Next meetings
a. Sunday, September 27th at 1 pm in
IDEAL Room 10.
b. Sunday, October
4th at 1 pm in IDEAL Room 10.
c. Sunday, October
18th at 1 pm in IDEAL Room 10.
Pat
will include meeting times in her email blasts.
Tracy to email members with notes and meeting dates.
Accessibility Feedback for IDEAL system - could
have better features for users e.g. to control text colours in
private chat.
