COHO March 3rd meeting --Postponed
Due to conflicting events scheduled, the COHO meeting scheduled on Friday, March 3rd has been postponed. Minutes from February's meeting are available by clicking here.
Instead, the COHO board would like to request that COHO members attend a COHO meeting to be held on Friday, March 10th from 8am - 9:30am at Penn Valley Community College, 3201 Southwest Trafficway, KCMO, Campus Center, Room 503.
The session on March 10th will be devoted to dialogue and interaction with our membership. We want to hear your thoughts and comments. There will be no presentations or committee reports at this meeting, although we may afford time for some announcements at the end of the session. We have engaged a local facilitator to assist us in this discussion - Ms. Magarethe Finefrock.
As background: in recent weeks, COHO has been asked on more than a few occasions for our position on issues that affect our local Latino community. The board is in the process of developing a critical issues policy and the purpose of this meeting on March 10th is to seek input from our membership. The COHO board is hopeful that all COHO members will attend so that we can hear your thoughts, comments and concerns.
As we find our voice and strive to speak collectively, we believe that is important to seek input from our membership regarding how our responses to crucial issues should be developed. It is our hope that the session on March 10th will assist us in this effort. COHO's initial goal has been to afford Latinos a strong voice locally and unified action when the need arises, however, we want to be sensitive to our members' concerns as we move forward in responding to pressing issues. Please plan to come -- 8:00am - 9:30am, Friday, March 10th at PVCC, 3201 Southwest Trafficway, KCMO, Campus Center Rm 503.
