Members present: Ciela Meyer, Brian MacKenzie, Brenna Bemis, Lyndsey Kellum, Cynthia Koan, Teresa Shiraishi Staff: Denise Banker “Start with the end in mind.” Steven Covey Time/Facilitator Activity 4:05 Denise Call meeting to order. Minutes approved (Ciela & Lindsey). Corrective Action Plan (CAP) report: Explained to DBHR (funder) planning for Parenting Wisely (PW) & Strengthening Families program (SFP), which the Coalition has struggled to populate. Denise pitched program to juvenile services, Dove House... Theresa signed up 12 more people for online PW, which is a beneficial program, but is time-consuming, doesn’t fit the Chimacum demographic, and tedious to complete; don’t try to do it in one sitting. In the CAP, Denise proposed one additional SFP in the spring and that PW be discontinued with its budgeted funds reallocated to speakers, or in-person services. Denise will move the funds to speakers. 4:20 Strengthening Family sessions (2 Feb-16 March), promoting in Chimacum, PT, Quilcene. Would like to promote through CHIMACUM PREVENTION COALITION Mission : Uniting kids, families and agencies in support of healthy youth in Chimacum. Jefferson County Public Health http://www.jeffersoncountypublichealth.org/index.php?c-p-c Denise Banker 360-385-9438 dbanker@co.jefferson.wa.us CES & CMS (Barga, Carthum), send flyer home with kids. Supper is provided to participants prior to parent / youth and family sessions. Program builds mutual empathy, skills. Cynthia Koan, SFP facilitator made a strong pitch for the program. Need to schedule another series to make up for the missed on in October. 4:30 Looking at revisions to school substance abuse policy. Suggestions to revise the ungainly, repetitive legalese in the first paragraph; Denise will work on that. 4:40 Sylvia found owner of vacant gas station, where the Coalition wants to place positive messaging in the windows. Denise collected sufficient surveys at CES & CMS parent conferences. Denise went to her first CHS prevention club meeting. Ciela wants to do something more visible in the school perhaps a Community Assessment of Neighborhood Stores (CANS). Students visit local retailer selling alcohol and tobacco to do assessments that consider placement of these controlled substances, advertising, etc. Lindsey went to Kitsap with the Liquor & Cannabis Board, distributing marijuana prevention pamphlets to businesses… prompted reporting of a convenience store selling marijuana to youth. Lyndsy will be accompanying the Liquor & Cannabis Board inspectors when they inspect Jefferson County marijuana retail shops soon. 4:50 New recruit: Chris Becker, executive director at Jumping Mouse Children’s Center in PT (counseling, intervention center serving children, ages 2-12, in East Jefferson County). Denise continues recruitment activities. We need a robust town hall event (Paper Tigers showing with guest speaker?) to make a big splash. The strategic plan specifies 5 events, but we may want to do 1 big one, and 4 key leader events, which may include presenting to School Board, Board of Health, Rotary, etc. Denise suggested the Prevention Club members & the coalition walk with CHS band in the Rhody parade. Denise became aware, as a result of collecting and inputting hardcopy surveys, that few community members know there is a volunteer coalition in their community CHIMACUM PREVENTION COALITION Mission : Uniting kids, families and agencies in support of healthy youth in Chimacum. Jefferson County Public Health http://www.jeffersoncountypublichealth.org/index.php?c-p-c Denise Banker 360-385-9438 dbanker@co.jefferson.wa.us dedicated to youth alcohol and other drug prevention. Celeste Bennett said kids at CHS were struggling with the election. MacKenzie: has mostly died down. Bullying relatively mild, efforts to combat it seem largely successful. Hard to be a student of color in CHS. There is a new Gay Straight Alliance (GSA) club in the school. Positive Dove House presentation last night (12/13) at the Chimacum HS library. Integrate Dove House message into Health class? 5:00 Next meeting, Dec.14. We will start meeting in the Jeff. Co. Library in Jan. 2017. Adjourn.
