LUM Board Meeting - Pizza & Perspectives
|
|
LUM Program Director Panel Discussion
|
|
As a part of the on-going training of the LUM Board of Directors, each quarter their meeting features a program called "Pizza & Perspectives." At last week's board meeting, the Pizza & Perspectives program included a panel discussion featuring four LUM program directors. The panel participants (pictured L to R) are as follows:
During this panel discussion board members learned how the
LUM Mission is being executed on the "front lines." The panelists gave brief summaries of their areas including current client needs, new initiatives, issues, and future opportunities. This was chance for board members to ask questions of the staff who work with clients & volunteers every day and are fully engaged in serving the families and children in our community.
Pizza & Perspectives was a lively and informative event leaving the LUM board members feeling better informed and energized.
