Please read to the end for all content!

· The focus of our meeting will be a presentation by Doug Sauer, CEO of the New York Council of Nonprofits (NYCON), on the NYS Attorney General’s new report on Revitalizing Nonprofits new plan and NYCON’s position on the report’s recommendations.

· Doug will also discuss NYCON’s efforts to address some of the new Executive Orders affecting nonprofits, and we will have a chance to learn about the benefits of our renewed Association Membership in NYCON.

· Please RSVP your attendance so we can let Doug know how many to expect.

Additional things:

· You should have received an e-mail from NYCON with membership information and a log-in and password because you are a NYCON member through HSLC’s association membership. You should not have to pay a fee to NYCON for membership. Please let me know if you did not receive the membership information.

· We are holding off charging dues for the 2011/2012 year while we are in discussion with possible funders about implementing our strategic plan. We expect that we will be charging dues again by summer, and the dues are anticipated to be higher than they were in the past to support goals identified by the membership.

· I am involved with the Onondaga Community Sexual Trauma Task Force, and we are trying to assess what trauma services exist in our community. Please e-mail me if your agency or program provides services focused on trauma response.

Thanks!
