So
good
morning,
everybody,
my
name
is
rosie
garcia
and
I'm
a
regional
coordinator
for
partners,
resource
network-
and
I
was
invited
here
by
ms
jacqueline.
So
I'm
very
grateful
and
thankful
for
you
all
taking
the
time
to
have
me
come
on
here
and
present
what
our
organization
is
about
and
the
services
that
we
offer
to
the
community.
So
I'm
just
gonna
click
like
this,
because
I
don't
want
to
mess
with
it.
Okay,.
C
With
it
all
right
so
partners,
research
network
is
the
parent
training
information
center
for
the
state
of
texas,
and
we
are
funded
to
the
department
of
special
education.
We
do
serve.
Parents
and
children
are
with
disabilities
from
the
ages
of
zero
to
26,
and
we
do
do
a
lot
of
our
self.
It's
education,
we're
not
advocates
and
we're
not
attorneys,
we're
here
to
help
parents
as
well
as
youth.
C
We
are
here,
as
I
mentioned,
to
serve
parents
of
children
that
have
disabilities
as
well
as
youth
self-advocates
between
the
ages
of
zero
and
26..
We
are
comfortable
or
we
are.
We
have
four
different
projects
throughout
the
whole
state
of
texas.
So,
depending
what
area
you're
in
is
the
project
that
you
would
kind
of
reach
out
to.
I
am
out
of
region
one,
so
we
are
in
the
lower
part.
C
I
cover
laredo
sapaca
county
gym
hog,
as
well
as
the
lower
part
of
san
antonio,
and
then
I
do
have
my
counterparts
that
are
like
in
the
mcallen
area,
austin
area.
Our
main
office
is
out
of
houston
and
then
for
the
team
project
that
I
am
a
part
of
we,
our
home
base
is
in
austin,
but
we
all
do
work
remotely.
So
really
it
doesn't
matter
who
you
reach
out
to.
C
We
will
always
find
somebody
that
is
in
your
area
and
we
will
get
you
to
the
correct
person
to
be
able
to
serve
you
here.
As
I
mentioned
some
of
the
resources
that
we
do.
Let
me
start
off
by
saying
everything
we
do
is
100
free,
all
the
resources,
all
the
training.
Everything
that
we
do
is
free,
so
we're
here,
just
as
a
you
know,
just
to
help
anybody
who's
interested
in
knowing
we
do
also
work
with
professionals.
It's
more
limited
with
professionals
we're
more
for
the
parents
than
the
youth.
C
We
do
a
lot
of
kind
of
workshops.
We
do
youth
workshops,
we
do
webinars,
we
give
informational
referrals,
we
do
one-on-one
technical
assistance,
we
do
help
and
support
with
the
art
process
as
well
as
ieps
if
you're
familiar
with
the
iep
right,
which
is
the
individual
education
plan.
So
we
do
get
a
lot
of
parents
that
aren't
familiar
with
what
it
is.
What
is
it
saying?
They're,
not
sure
if
the
goals
are
written,
the
way
that
they
should
be
written?
C
So
we
do
have
a
lot
of
curriculum
and
a
lot
of
materials
that
we
are
able
to
teach
the
parent
for
them
to
know
how
to
read
those
ieps.
They
do
send
us
the
ieps
and
I'm
able
to
read
that
iep
and
then
we
provide
feedback
hey.
This
is
where
it's
missing,
or
you
know
just
recall,
back
and
forth.
We
do
also
attend
our
meetings
as
a
support
system.
C
Again
because
we're
not
advocates
or
lawyers,
we
do
a
lot
of
annual
symposiums
parent
and
new
leadership
trainings,
and
we
are
on
facebook
as
well
as
on
youtube
and
then
oh.
This
is
just
something
else,
and
then
this
is
just
my
contact
information.
We
do
do
a
lot
of
partnerships
with
within
the
community
here
in
the
radio.
Unfortunately,
a
lot
of
people
don't
know
about
our
services
and
that's
just
unfortunate
because
it's
really
they
haven't
had
anybody
in
my
position
for
a
very
long
time.
C
I
just
came
on
board
in
august
of
last
year,
so
it
we
had
our
counterpart
in
the
challenge
she
was
having
to
serve
all
the
italian
area,
as
well
as
the
ring
of
solo.
Raiders
she's
been
really
underserved
for
a
long
time.
So
hopefully,
now
that
I'm
here
and
I'm
able
to
let
the
community
know
about
our
services,
we
are
looking
to
do
a
lot
more
collaborations
partnerships.
I
know
that
I
currently
do
have
a
collaboration
here
in
the
radar
with
miss
christine
veyez
and
what
we
collaborated
on
was
she
told
I
told
her
ivan.
C
I
gave
her
a
list
of
the
curriculums
and
topics
that
we
have,
which
I
did
provide
to
you
all
in
your
packages
and
we
have
different
topics
for
just
the
general
public.
You
know
parents
and
caregivers,
as
well
as
a
separate
list
for
just
you,
so
we
collaborated
on
doing
webinars,
whether
it's
one
or
two
a
month.
She
chose
the
webinars.
We
worked
out
of
the
time
and
date
and
then
you
know
we
just
reached
the
community
that
way,
so
I
do
also
have
a
collaboration
out
of
san
antonio.
C
A
C
Yes,
just
if
you
know
bail
is
holding
a
an
88
anniversary
celebration,
it's
gonna
be
their
fellow
tennessee
workforce.
You
might
want
to
touch
space
with
them.
I
can
send
you
the
yes
perfect.
It's
going
to
be
at
the
28th,
so
it'd
be
a
great
opportunity
for
you
to
acknowledge
your
resources
to
the
convenience.
Yes,
yeah,
perfect
yeah,
because
we
do
do
a
lot
of
like
tables
right
now
go
and
set
up
my
table
and
just
give
information.
C
I've
done
it
like
at
10
new,
different
events
like
eventually
I'm
trying
to
get
laredo
to
kind
of
know
who
we
are
right
and
what
services
we
provide,
because
everything
we
do
is
100
free.
So
and
it's
a
lot.
We
have
a
lot
of
great
resources,
the
ones
that
parents
really
tend
to
kind
of
gravitate
to
is
gonna,
be
those
iep
supports
because
they're
not
familiar
with
a
lot
a
lot
of
them.
C
C
Services
for
individuals
with
disabilities,
we
work
with
that
translation.
C
So
that's
a
perfect
bridge
for
gaping
of
services,
so
having
that
information
with
us
would
be
very
beneficial
with
services,
and
I
did
put
out
that
package,
I
did
put
the
curriculum
topics
and
descriptions
that
we
do
actually
have
some
curriculum
that
I've
done
where
it's
transitioning
like
from
high
school
to
college
in
the
differences
right.
So
we
do
have
different
curriculum
on
those
topics
of
transition.
A
C
Absolutely
good
morning
mornings,
good
morning,
everyone,
my
name
is
janice
nona
and
I
am
I
work
with
tommy
hoop.
So
that's
why
thank
you
for.
C
I
work
with
office
of
student,
counseling
and
disability
services,
so
my
office.
What
we
do
is
we
provide
all
mental
health
services
and
disability
services
for
chinese
students.
Of
course
you
have
to
be
a
student
with
a
disability.
C
So
that's
why
I
invited
them.
You
know,
so
they
can,
because
some
of
my
students-
they
don't
know
about
all
the
services
they.
C
Vr
program,
they
don't
know
about
you
know
that
means
resources
regarding
the
community
also
what
we
do
at
tamiu,
it's
our
goal
for
my
office
is,
of
course,
to
provide.
You
know
the
services
for
the
students
and,
like
I
said,
we
do
provide
mental
health
counseling
professional
counseling,
and
we
also
provide
in
the
disability
side
which,
which
I
coordinate.
That
side
is.
C
We
provide
academic
accommodations
for
the
students,
so
the
academic
accommodations
is
anything
from
having
a
large
chair
from
having
preferential
sitting
from
having
extra
time
in
everything
in
order
for
them
to
have
an
equal
access
to
higher
education.
So
I
know
I
don't
know
why,
but
you
know
was
never
composed
of
computer.
I
know
llc
was
more
involved,
but
now
that
you
know
we
wanna,
you
know
what
we
have
in
our
meetings.
C
We
do
want
to
be
involved
with
the
community
because
we
know
that
our
students
they
need
that
support
that
help,
and
especially
since
some
of
them
might
not
qualify
for
financial
support
because
they
exhausted
once
you
know,
because
they
take
a
little
bit
longer
to
accomplish
the
degree.
So
any
resources
available
for
my
students
will
appreciate
it.
But
yes,
and
that's
where
I'm
coming
from
welcome,
thank
you
and
just
so
that
you
know.
C
C
It
is
sad
because
sometimes
I
have
graduate
students
that
they're
already
coming
into
my
office
and
they
didn't
know
about.
You
know
the
services
either,
because
I
don't
know
what
happened
between
the
transition
from
high
school
to
higher
education.
I
don't
know
I
mean
they
participated
in
their
meetings,
but
I
don't
know
what's
what
happened
in
that
transition
that
they
believe
that
once
they
graduate
from
high
school?
That's
it
there's
no
more
services
available
in
higher
education,
so
with
everybody
knocking
on
my
door
as
a
graduate
student
and
all
the
undergrad,
I
was
like.
C
How
did
you
do
it
and
I
was
like
well,
I
struggled
a
lot,
you
know,
but
I
mean
well,
I
don't
know
I
mean,
but
yeah
sometimes
I
mean
or
they
just
or
they
have,
that
stigma.
B
C
Oh,
you
know
they're
gonna
identify
me,
you
know
like
in
high
school
that
they
were
in
their
special
little
504
program
and
they
don't
want
to
continue
like
that.
But
I
tell
them
that's
totally
different
once
you're
here
so
either
because
they're
under
the
stigma,
they
don't
want
the
services
because
they
think
that
we're
gonna
go
to
like
into
the
classes
and
pull
them
out
like
in
high
school.
I
don't
know
we
don't
do
that.
You
know
it's
just
you
know
it's.
You
know
everything.
C
It's
on
self
advocacy
and
you
know
self-identification
and
of
course
you
know
we
do
provide
a
mental
health
counseling.
In
fact,
it's
also
at
their
own
time,
like
we
don't
pull
them
out.
Okay,
it's
time
for
your
session.
You
know
it's.
Whenever
they
have,
you
know
they're
gonna
be,
and
of
course
we
do
you
know
are
currently
accommodations.
C
But
yes,
I
mean
just
to
clarify
on
that
point
where
you
say
you
know,
students
might
not
want
the
services
one
of
the
things
our
culture
is
an
amazing
culture.
We
have
the
people
here,
but
we
nurture
our
our
children
as
they
grow.
So,
rather
than
empower
them,
we
hinder
them
because
we
don't
learn,
we
don't
teach
them
to
embrace
who
they
are.
C
We
teach
them
to
avoid
what
they
can
and
while
we
are
helping
we're
really
hurting
students,
because
then
you
have
situations
such
as
yours,
whether,
rather
than
having
done
a
four-year
degree,
now
they're
working
on
their
sixth
and
seventh
year,
so
I
think
outreaching,
the
schools
and
letting
them
know.
You
know
what
I'm
here
to
provide
a
service,
I'm
here
or
partnering
with
vr
or
whatever
other
agencies
out
there
and
letting
people
know.
You
know
what
we're
here.
C
D
C
Because
I
know
sometimes,
since
we
have
early
college,
you
know
stationed
at
su,
so
we
don't
have
a
very
close
communication
with
every
college,
but
when
the
counselors
they
contact
me.
C
Unfortunately,
we
don't
work
by
referrals,
because
in
higher
education
the
student
needs
to
sell
identified
so
sometimes,
even
though
and
they're
very
good.
That
comes
as
they
do.
The
the
art
records
that
I
report.
I
can't
because
I
was
like
the
only
thing
I
can
do
is
provide
my
information
and
I
can
say
something:
they
don't.
C
As
a
student
with
a
disability,
so
it's
you
know
it's
it's
a
lot
of.
You
know
educating
the
students
that
it's
their
right,
because
I
tell
them
it's
your
right.
It's
your
right
assistant
to
receive
these
services,
but
I
mean
it.
It's
also
approved
over
there,
because
sometimes
you
know
we
don't
work
by
referrals.
It's
even
though
they
provide
me
with
everything.
C
If
the
student
does
not
sell
identified,
I
can't
and
I
have
something
to
have
like
10,
nameless
students,
and
then
you
know,
but
right
now
I
already
have
like
eight
students
identified
only
once
or
for
the
incoming
person
for
the
fall
semester,
the
other
ones
they
have
so
like.
I
said
I
don't
know
if
it's,
if
it's
more
in
like
in
the
school
districts
that
they
have
to
like
push
like
the
decision
counselor,
I
don't
know
how
that
works
and
just
to
say,
hey,
you
know
what
it's
your.
C
The
service
so
but
yes,
hopefully,
that
yeah,
I'm
I'm
gonna,
have
a
name.
C
Do
work
in
the
special
education
department
once
you
mention
uic,
it
would
be
wonderful
to
also
reach
out
to
our
mma
students,
special
education
boxers
at
the
high
school,
and
they
do
work
with
transition
and
our
office.
We
also
have
a
transition
specialist
who
precipitates
with
the
officers
with
the
students
and
the
only
reason
I
say
that
is
because
whenever
they
have
this,
I
mean
I
know
I
was
in
charge.
Well,
I
wasn't
trying
to
spend,
but
I
did
receive
when
you
said
self-advocacy.

Good
afternoon
everyone,
some
of
you
faithful,
my
name-
is
erica
martinez,
I'm
the
assistant
director
here
at
the
health
department,
I'm
going
to
share
some
updates
of
the
committee.
What
we've
worked
on,
I
know
some
of
you
are
familiar
with
with
our
background
and
we
have
seen
some
activity
and
some
directives
from
council
in
terms
of
what
they
would
like
to
see
for
the
population
that
we
serve
with
this
committee.
C
So
just
gonna
give
you
a
quick
update,
of
course,
christine
provided
her
update
on
our
children
with
special
healthcare
needs
program
that
is
housed
here
at
the
health
department.
C
We
are
doing
the
training
for
vaccine
providers,
as
she
mentioned.
First
responder
registry
form
the
adaptive
aquatics
and,
of
course,
we
have
just
launched
our
multi-sensory
room
at
faskin.
That
program
does
continue
now
that
we
have
finalized
and
and
opened
in
the
grand
opening
for
the
multi-sensory
room
at
classkin.
We
are
identifying
locations
in
south
laredo
to
do
the
same
for
that
that
region.
C
We
do
have
our
brc
just
a
little
bit
of
background,
especially
for
the
new
members.
This
committee
has
served
since
august
2010.
It
was
created
by
motion,
and
it
is
mayor
appointed
for
with
up
to
12
members
to
advocate,
of
course,
for
those
in
our
community
with
disabilities
by
promoting
awareness,
education
and
securing
resources
for
their
physiological
psychological
and
social
well-being
and,
of
course,
to
provide
guidance
and
serve
as
consultants
to
the
city
of
laredo
officials
regarding
issues
affecting
people
with
disabilities.
C
I
pulled
this
up
from
the
original
vision
and
mission
that
the
brc
created
back
in
2010,
so
a
little
bit
more
about
blue
ribbon.
Of
course,
we
have
our
logo,
we
do
count
with
a
website
a
couple
of
psas.
I
do
encourage
you
for
the
sake
of
time,
I
won't
connect
and
just
to
try
to
avoid
technical
difficulties.
I
won't
link,
but
I
do
encourage
you
to
visit
the
brc
website
and
the
home
page
at
the
very
bottom.
C
C
These
p
30
second
psas
highlighted
members
of
our
community
youth
in
our
community
that
worked
with
the
private
sector
and
provided
a
little
bit
about
their
experience,
of
course,
with
the
collaboration
with
workforce
and
being
designated
with.
I
believe
it
was
two
local
pizza
shops
and,
of
course,
we
do
have
our
programs
with
other
members
of
the
community.
C
The
brc
has
also
led
sensitivity
and
inclusivity
trainings.
I
do
encourage
the
committee
to
perhaps
revisit
that
to
see
what
options
are
available.
Of
course,
the
health
department
is
your
health
department,
so
we'd
be
more
than
happy
to
host
and
have
those
trainings
be
reintroduced
for
the
sake
of
of
spreading
the
education
and
through
the
website,
we
also
have
links
to
resources
available.
Those
are
updated
continuously.
I
know
we
receive
feedback
from
members
wanting
to
have
certain
information
included
in
the
website
and
we
work
with
city
secretary's
office
to
update
those
periodically.
C
This
is
a
little
throwback
to
when
brc
met
at
the
cherish
center.
The
brc
did
meet
for
a
couple
of
years.
I
believe
we're
doing
it
like
once
a
year
and,
of
course,
with
povid
and
everything
we
stopped,
but
this
center
provides
students
with
disabilities
vocational
training
to
integrate
into
the
workforce.
C
We've
also
participated
with
the
laredo
disability
alliance.
We
participated
in
their
2018
job.
Fair
and
laredo.
Health
was
also
a
keynote
speaker
and
we
shared
a
success
story
on
our
collaboration
through
this
committee
and
through
workforce
in
their
2019
business
symposium,
one
of
my
favorite
summer
earn
and
learn
program.
I'm
happy
to
report
that
city
of
laredo
health
department
is
once
again
a
partner
in
this
program.
C
We
do
have
four
students
that
have
that
started
mid-june
and
will
be
with
us
for
the
second
week
of
august
obtaining
work
experience
with
our
departments
in
several
divisions.
We
actually
have
a
student
in
administration
in
epidemiology
and
I'm
missing
one
our
primary
care
clinic,
of
course,
those
that
are
familiar
with
seal.
This
is
a
collaborative
with
workforce,
commission
and
vr,
and
they
do
training,
do
work
based
learning
and
they
get
paid
for
it.
So
that's
super
neat
as
well.
C
Oh
here's.
The
picture
of
us.
C
Real
quick
with
the
students
and
they're
working
12
20
hours
a
week
so
part
time
during
12
weeks.
C
There
we
go
we're
also
collaborating
with
the
adults
paid
work
experience.
I'm
really
happy
to
report
that
not
only
the
health
department
is
going
to
be
participating
in
this
initiative,
but
also
other
departments
within
the
city
of
laredo,
again,
a
collaborative
with
texas,
workforce
and
vr
for
them
to
learn
skills
that
are
transferable
to
future
long-term
competitive,
integrated
employment-
and
this
is
also
a
paid
internship
where
workforce
provides
payments
and
then
they
obtain
work.
Experience
in
various
departments
or
organizations.
C
C
We
are
working
with
brighton
center
in
san
antonio,
ms
christine
has
provided
that
report
in
the
past,
but
we
are
gearing
up
for
a
visit
to
tour
the
facility
in
san
antonio
and
just
provide
networking
opportunities
of
what
we
can
see
that
we
can
bring
back
to
our
community
here
in
laredo
they're,
also
assisting
us
with
some
of
the
training
that
miss
christine
has
mentioned
for
the
daycares
we
are
set
to
participate
in
august.
C
We
did
see
a
very
positive
response
from
the
providers
here
in
laredo
wanting
this
type
of
training.
So
that's
very
encouraging.
We
filled
up
the
the
list
of
participants
in
a
matter
of
minutes.
I
think
I
heard
so
now
we're
coordinating
additional
trainings
for
other
providers
within
the
upcoming
months
and
we're
going
to
leave
right
after
this
meeting
it's
time
to
turn
into
a
tour
and
we'll
come
back
and
provide
a
report
for
the
next
brc
meeting.
C
I
apologize
inclusive
child
care
training.
I
already
talked
about
that
sorry,
so,
council
directive,
this
is
what
we
touched
on
very
or
somewhat
in
our
last
meeting.
This
is
a
directive
from
council
member
vanessa
perez
of
discussion
with
possible
action
to
help
improve
quality
of
life
through
the
creation
of
a
coalition
and
a
special
needs
master
plan,
of
course
through
the
blue
ribbon
committee.
C
So
some
of
the
actions
we
do
have
the
graphic
already
created
by
our
very
creative
director,
dr
chamberlain
and,
of
course,
the
title
of
it
also
city
of
loreto,
all
kinds
of
minds.
C
We
do
have
a
very
rough
draft
on
what
we
kind
of
foresee
this
the
structure
of
this
master
plan,
but
of
course
we
will
leave
it
up
to
the
coalition,
which
will
be
derived
from
the
blue
ribbon
committee
and,
of
course,
other
members
of
of
our
community
to
finalize
the
details
on
what
it's
going
to
what
this
plan
is
going
to
house.
C
So
the
first
autism
coalition
meeting
will
be
scheduled
for
august
3rd
2022
at
11.
Here
at
your
health
department.
We
do
issue
out
a
warm
invitation
to
all
vrc
members
and
all
in
attendance
today
to
attend
this
meeting.
I'm
sorry,
I
said
midnight,
it's
11
pm
am
sorry
typo
I
got
too
excited
about.
Jumping
am
yes,
let's
not
do
it
is
going
to
be
fun,
but
not
at
the
party
time
of
we've
also
finalized
details
for
our
first
town
hall
meeting.
C
C
I
got
that
one
right
at
the
laredo
public
library
main
branch,
so
we
did
one
a
sent
a
center
location,
and
this
is
one
of
several
town
halls
that
will
be
scheduled
for
the
community
to
partake
in
the
creation
of
the
master
plan
or
any
other
issues
that
they
might
feel
are
of
concern
that
they
can
bring
to
the
committee
and
to
counsel
at
that
time.
C
So
this
past
monday,
we
also
received
another
directive
from
council
member
alberto
torres
requesting
the
following:
a
discussion
with
possible
action
to
create
a
workforce
employment
program
within
the
city
of
laredo,
for
adults
with
special
needs
and
further
incorporating
the
private
sector
and
other
matters
incident.
There
too,
we
were
ready
to
report.
We
actually
had
this
complete
presentation
ready
to
provide
to
the
council
members,
of
course.
For
the
sake
of
time,
we
provided
a
brief
summary
and
let
them
know
that
we
are
active
participants
in
seal
and
the
adult
work
paid.
C
Adult
paid
work
experience,
so
they
were
very
happy
to
know
that
we've
already
started
a
lot
of
these
initiatives
but,
of
course,
with
the
support
of
council
we're
looking
as
to
how
to
further
support,
expand
and
create
more
opportunities
for
people
with
special
needs,
of
course,
with
the
collaboration
of
workforce
and
all
the
other
entities
in
this
room.
So
we
welcome
your
ideas.
We
also
are
thinking
council.
Member
perez
did
provide
the
guidance
that
perhaps
it
could
be
a
subset
of
the
autism
coalition
she
asked
to
create.
C
C
Any
questions
real
quickly.
I
just
want
to
thank
erica
and
dr
chandler
for
the
initiative
the
department
has
taken
in
creating
these
initiatives
without
their
support,
and
I'm
being
really
honest
because
I'm
on
the
receiving
end
of
that
another
waiting
list
of
that
this
would
not
happen.
C
It
takes
people
with
passion
and
a
vision
to
make
things
happen,
and
I
can
honestly
say
that
the
health
department
has
been
a
trendsetter
in
developing
the
programs
that
are
going
to
be
coming
for
them.
So.
B
C
The
poor
center-
here's
back
right,
they've
always
been
true
advocates,
so
I
I
second
that
for
sure
true
advocates
of
already
being
inclusive,
and
you
know
what,
with
these
great
programs
that
vr
has
right
now,
there's
no
risk
to
the
employer.
All
we're
asking
is
an
opportunity
right.
Give
these
people
a
fighting
chance
and
our
community
is
a
better
place.
So
I.
D
Apologize.
Thank
you.
Thank
you.
We
really
appreciate
the
kind
words
we
work
selflessly
to
ensure
cooperation,
diversity,
equity
and
inclusion
within,
of
course,
our
immediate
umbrella,
organizational
regular
health
going
out
into
the
community,
because
we
are
working
to
make
sure
that
city
of
laredo,
as
the
mother
of
parent
organization,
is
able
to
push
this
through.
D
Since
this
item
was
put
onto
the
council
agenda
this
past
monday,
council
members
did
not
know
that
these
programs
are
in
existence
that
these
pathways
to
industry
do
exist
and
we
wanted
to
make
sure
that
we
weren't
taking
the
credit
for
them.
So
I
can
share
that.
We
just
got
an
immediate
request
about
this.
I
said
you
have
to
go
to
the
parent
organization
to
check
this
workforce
to
highlight
them
and
then
use
the
city
of
loreto
as
a
subset
of
how
successful
that
that's
working.
D
So
I'm
glad
that
they're
starting
to
place
a
spotlight
on
it,
but
it
shouldn't
just
be
spotlighted
at
the
moment.
It
needs
to
continue
to
work
as
we're
working
and
continue
to
build
that
strength,
and
so,
as
council
member
got
us
to
place
it
on
the
agenda
and
we
brought
it
to
his
or
we
helped
educate
him
on
what
we're
doing
here
at
laredo
health
and
how
it's
trickling
into
the
city
of
loreto
other
organizations.
Other
departments
as
we
have
I'm
not
mistaken,
34
different
departments.
D
So
it's
working
its
way
into
them
and
we're
very
excited
that
we
its
health
and
to
others
at
this
moment
and
that
it
will
slowly
roll
into
the
the
rest
of
the
departments
to
be
able
to
bring
in
larger
sets
of
persons
coming
into
the
seal
program.
The
adult
work
experience
program
and
then
seeking
to
find
other
pathways
to
be
able
to
generate
the
experience
that
is
needed
for
these
individuals,
and
then
it
also
has
that
advantage
as
that's
the
organization
the
supervisor
builds.
D
That
report
sees
the
amazing
war
and
productivity
that
comes
out
of
anybody
and
these
individuals
as
well
and
rolls
them
into
the
opportunity
to
be
a
full-time
employee
at
the
city
of
oregon.
So
and
as
you
mentioned,
they
said
about
price
and
how
it
costs
us
the
city
of
oreo,
and
I
make
sure
in
the
moment
it
does
not
cost
us
anything.
Now
we
are
giving
gifts
by
partnering
to
persons
with
special
needs.
C
Erica
I'm
sorry.
You
mentioned
that
subcommittee
for
the
coalition
for
access
to
autism
services.
Yes,
you're
going
to
be
forming
a
subcommittee
because
there's
an
individual
that
reached
out
to
me
from
the
other
meeting
that
we
had.
I.
D
We
do
also
want
to
continue
to
stress
the
subject
matter,
expertise
that
are
sitting
around
this
table
and
we
cannot
do
anything
without
the
smes
here.
So
we
do
encourage,
of
course,
any
type
of
representation
from
brc,
which
first
will
be
us.
Health
department,
erica
myself
christine,
but
the
subject
matter
exercise
are
going
to
help
drive
all
kinds
of
minds
to
master
that
and
within
that
I
just
have
subsections
just
to
give
you
all
a
little
bit
of
background,
or
it
has
background
it
has
vision.
D
It
has
mission,
it
has
goals,
it
has
objectives,
measures,
indicators
and
benchmarking
they're
all
blank
right
now,
because
we
do
want
that
to
come
as
a
collective
input
to
be
able
to
develop
this
document.
By
no
means
do
we
want
it
to
be
99,
60
45
pages
long.
We
want
it
to
be
roughly
about
20
with
dependencies
that
make
it
really
nice
and
easy
to
read
for
a
family
member
or
easy
to
read
for
a
barber
that
is
seeking
a
higher
level
of
knowledge
to
demonstrate
their
sensitivity
to
this
population.
D
But
that
also
comes
from
the
group
giving
us
goals
that
we
need
to
hit
as
a
community.
So
I
wanted
to
share
that.
That's
where
we're
well,
that's
what
we're
looking
at
and
but
definitely
we
we
at
the
health
department
as
much
as
we
would
like
to
be
the
subject
matter,
experts
on
every
single
subject.
Unfortunately,
if
we
as
mentioned
in
the
last
meeting,
this
is
we
this
is
done
as
a
community
and
we
have
the
strength
in
the
numbers
and
we
have
the
better
outcomes
as
participants
of.
C
C
Think
this
is
an
amazing
opportunity
to
highlight
the
work
that
all
of
you
do
and
create
actionable
items.
So
what's
great
about
the
structure
or
what
we're
envisioning
for
the
master
plan
is
that
we
don't
want
a
document
that
sits
on
a
shelf
or
at
a
web
link,
but
something
that
we
can
go
back
and
say:
okay,
there's
metrics,
we
said
we
established
the
expectation
that
you
know
this
was
our
recommendation.
Where
are
we
six
months
a
year
from
now?
So
that's
what's
really
great
about
that.
C
Furthering
the
conversation
about
expanding
the
efforts
or
the
current
programs.
We
have
had
preliminary
conversations
with
other
other
city
departments,
human
resources.
We
do
have
a
representative
today
in
attendance,
so
we
do
appreciate
the
time
and
so
that
you
can
know
a
little
bit
more
about
everything
that
we
do
and
what
this
you
know,
the
value
that
this
committee
contributes,
as
well
as
with
other
departments.
So.
C
Guys,
the
sky
is
the
limit.
I
think
that
for
a
lot
of
you,
a
lot
of
us,
we
have
these.
You
know
in
an
ideal
world
like
this
is
what
we
would
like
to
see.
This
is
a
time
to
you
know,
provide
those
ideas,
those
dreams,
those
goals
and
then
trying
to
structure
it
into
something,
that's
realistic
and
attainable.
So
thank
you
guys.
Thank
you.
B
C
C
C
C
C
About
it
in
a
more
global
perspective
of
well,
do
you
do
it?
We
go
back
to
the
self-reporting
and
self-disclosing,
because
this
is
a
projected
class.
There
are
some
intricacies
and
legalities
of
it
that
we
have
to
consider.
We
can't
just
you
know
as
much
as
I
know,
council
talks
about
perhaps
some
sort
of
preference
or
how
it
could
be
reported.
So
then
we
have
to
kind
of
backtrack
and
say
wait
a
minute.
You
know
we
have
to
make
sure
we're
in
compliance.
So,
but
definitely
all
ideas
are
valid.
C
You
know
this
is
the
time
to
brainstorm
to
to
think
about
what
our
ideal
community
looks
like.
So
I
really
hope
that
you
can
join
us
during
the
you
know,
the
coalition
meeting
or
even
the
town
hall
meeting
that
are
upcoming,
so
that
we
can
further
our
discussions.
C
And
I
think
that
when
I
talk
to
other
lawyers,
one
of
them
is
they
want
to
make
sure
they're,
compliant
and
scared
of
their
food.
C
So
I
think
that
if
one
of
those
employers
talk
to
others,
it's
not
that
it's
not
that
big
of
a
challenge.
C
Need
that
education,
specifically
with
with
the
special
equipment
that
comes
to
them,
and
then
we
have
somebody,
that's
interested,
submit
that
graduation
with
her
she's
sleeping
blind
but
she's
like
something.
I
would
be
really
interested
in
becoming
a
provider
appreciates
one
year
of
experience,
working
in
the
diabetes
education
role,
where
exactly.
C
She
was
she
had
graduated
just
yet.
I
knew
just
and
and
meeting
her
and
herself
how
she
she
learned
to
manage
herself.
You
know
with
nation,
and
I
thought
you
know
this
individual
would
be
a
really
good
job,
basically,
not
only
that,
like
for
some
years.
B
D
Yeah-
and
I
can
also
mention,
as
ms
jackie
stated,
it's
important
for
us
to
take
it
outside
of
this
room
and
put
your
guard
with
other
employers
and
just
recently
at
a
meeting
and
I'll
share
this.
So
definitely
that
could
be
some
connections.
Mr
eduardo
got
with
the
owner
of
david.
Terry
said
that
he
would
like
to
also
come
on
board
and
start
everybody
putting
into
action
on
the
private
sector
and
so
he's
one
of
the
largest
import
exports.
C
Well,
that's
not
saying
that
I
want
to
share
as
much
as
we
talk
about
how
much
the
individual
school
you
placed
your
are
going
to
be.
I
can
tell
you
the
benefit
to
community
will
receive
and
that
future
generations
will
be
impacted
with
is
greater
than
anything
we
will
ever
see.
I
I
tell
them.
I
tell
people
that
with
the
work
that
I
do,
I
don't
do
it
for
today.
I
do
because
I'm
going
to
have
a
great
great
grandchildren.
B
A
Okay,
so
any
other
information
that
I'd
like
to
share.
A
C
Sign
up
for
anything,
but
I
think
there
is
a
but
we're
having
this
adventures
into
the
seat:
catholic
children
with
disabilities,
in
cooperation
with
talking
to
the
development
council-
and
I
hadn't
informed
you
of
this
in
the
other
meeting,
because
it
was
the
day
it
was
testing
to
be
more
but
we're
glad
to
be
bringing
these
back.
This
is
a
summer
camp
special
for
special
needs,
children,
their
parents.
B
C
C
Taking
place
as
I
speak
at
the
center
there's,
a
it's
a
fun
pack,
two
day
event
this
this
time,
we're
having
a
lot
of
support
and
people
just
calling
to
be
sponsors
and
be
part
of
this
summer
camp.
It's
really
a
risk
exam
because
it
helps
it's
also
for
the
parents
of
childhood
disability.
They
get
to
have
those
two
days
for
the
daughter
of
their
children,
knowing
that
they're
in
a
place
where
specialized
licensed
staff
is
taking
care
of
your
children.
C
So
if
you
know
of
anyone's
space
is
limited,
but
we're
willing
to
go
a
little
bit
over
as
long.
C
So
if
you
know
anyone
who
wants
to
volunteer
or
in
community
hours
we're
welcoming
everyone
and
also
I'm
so
sorry,
don't.
C
C
Thank
you.
So
let
people
know
we're.
Gonna
have
this
august,
the
third
and
august,
the
fourth
from
10
a.m,
to
6
p.m.
Thank
you
and
I
would
like
them.
C
This
is
going
to
be
sisters
of
this
will
be
at
sisters
of
mercy
water
park,
2201
sacramento
street.
It's
going
to
be
from
9
a.m,
to
12
p.m.
We're
gonna
have
different
services
on
site
with
the
mobile
health
clinic
village.
It's
gonna
include
food
distribution,
backpacks
school
supplies,
zumba
prizes
for
the
attendees
and
then
at
home
coca-19
test
kits,
but
I.
C
Programs
that
are
here
at
health
department
present
like
our
program,
our
children
have
special
opportunities
on
site,
so
we
can
of
course,
educate
and
offer
resources
on-site
for
families,
but
of
course
we
have
different
partners
that
include
the
wake
department,
fiscal
health
plan
gateway
and
much
more
partners
that
will
be
attending
as
well
to
get
free
resources
and
services
on
site.
C
We'll
share
the
flyer
with
everyone
and
the
committee,
as
well
as
the
attendees,
so
that
if
you
would
like
to
share
it
too,
it
will
also
be
shared
on
our
social
media
as
well.
So
we
can
continue
to
share
that.
But
if
there's
any
questions
please
reach
out
to
us.
D
I
also
have
an
additional
announcement.
Thank
you.
Erica
will
follow
and
one
more,
I
just
wanted
to
remind
everybody
here
at
this
committee
to
continue
to
share
with
all
persons
family
social
circles,
to
make
sure
to
report
your
positive
coping
statuses
to
the
health
department.
Right
now
we
are
seeing
an
influx
or
not
significant,
because
we're
not
getting
all
the
reports
so
we're
seeing
an
increase
and
we're
getting
reports
from
organizations
that
have
several
members
out
or
family
members
are
out,
but
we're
not
seeing
that
number
here
at
the
health
department.
D
So
our
community
risk
level,
as
defined
by
cdc,
is
still
listed
as
low.
But
of
course,
us
at
health,
if
you
haven't
noticed
we're
pumping
out
a
lot
of
messages
about
still
using
face
masks
about
getting
your
vaccines
about
reporting
your
at-home
test
kits
to
the
health
department
via
the
qr
codes
for
easy
connection
to
the
online
forums
or
emailing
them
to
us
or
calling
us,
because
it's
really
important
that
we
have
an
accurate
representation
in
the
community,
because
data
drives
decision
making
data
drives
response
and,
as
of
this
moment,
we're
in
green.
D
So
it's
we're
okay,
but
we
might
not
be
okay.
So
if
I
may
ask
for
support
to
continue
to
share
that
I'll
ask
christine
to
push
out
the
qr
code,
the
email
and
the
phone
number
to
the
group.
Also,
so
you
know
if
you
have
information
as
I
just
shared
recently
with
our
staff,
my
mom
came
back
from
a
trip.
D
She
was
positive
and,
of
course
I
took
her
information
and
I
sent
it
over
to
the
epidemiology
department,
because
anybody
with
information
about
somebody
who
has
a
notifiable
disease
condition
is
required
by
law
to
notify
the
local
health
jurisdiction.
So
if
you
do
have
a
family
friend
or
of
anybody
in
your
social
circle
that
might
not
have
reported
it.
It's
okay
for
you
to
report
and
it's
basic
information
too,
just
so
that
we're
getting
that
data
in
to
drive
response
mechanisms.
D
So
thank
you
for
that
support
and
there's
some
more
at
home
test
kits
back
here,
for
you
all
to
take
home
as
well
with.
B
C
C
Just
dr
chamberlain's
voice
that
going
forward
one
of
the
seven
three
to
five
years,
but
we
are
very
excited.
C
A
Yeah,
I
was
gonna
say
like
data,
does,
provide
decisions
and
that's
the
whole
purpose
of
this
assessment,
so
through
focus
groups,
interviews
and
surveys.
Some
of
those
may
be
pushed
out
to
people
that
are
sitting
here
today
and
our
health
equity
team
in
the
health
department.
Just
really
looks
forward
to
hearing
more
perspectives
on
ways
that
we
can
look
at
different
communities
and
especially
people
with
disabilities.
I've
been
talking
about
today,
so
we're.
B
A
A
C
C
I
said
we
have
plenty
of
kids,
but
not
truthfully
is
we
are
going
to
have
the
night
to
shine,
is
a
program
where
we
get
and
we
gather
individuals
with
disabilities
and
they
all
have
to
get
a
chance
to
have
a
fun
night,
regardless
of
age,
from
14
all
the
way
to
whatever
age
they
are.
C
I
know
some
of
you
have
been
there
during
those
events
and
it's
an
amazing
opportunity
to
highlight
a
fun
time
and
to
leave
there
when
more
than
we
bring
in
okay,
because
we
get
to
sit
with
someone
and
we
cater
that
night
red
carpet.
It's
a
couple's
party
buses,
music,
robots
with
lights.
We
had
a
drone
one
time
that
flew
over
the
area.
I
think
it's
a
great
opportunity,
but
it
doesn't
take
one
person.
It
takes
a
whole
bunch
to
be
sold
everywhere
in
the
tent.
I
wouldn't
bring
it
down.
I.
