Bay County Branch NAACP COVID-19 Tele-Town Hall Meeting 4.18.2020

Sun, 2020-04-19 11:04 — Jan Booher

Congratulations to all involved with the Tele-Town Hall Meeting yesterday! I thought the presenters were very smooth and professional, and the government officials were responsive.

 

The Town Hall showed tremendous capacity within the African American community to provide a virtual platform for Whole of Society problem solving. I felt that Janice, and LEAD Coalition more broadly demonstrated competence and capacity in. the way the Zoom call was managed, from invitations to follow up correspondence. It is one thing to be invited to a problem-solving table set by others, and quite another to create your own table, and control the context of the problem-solving dialogue. Congratulations on achieving the latter!
