daily reporting

1st Msg (to kate): Had association stuff, then worked on getting ready for inspections.

Msg: Response from Kate: Pls be a little more specific- what does "stuff mean"

My Final Text Msg: I was refering to the steering committee meeting and best practices for hys providers, gearing up for the association meeting coming up this month. Talked about financial struggles within homeless youth services community due to the federal funding cuts and the inevitable trickle down. Gave Bo vip invite for the event on monday, went over the state of the city report that we write, to gear up for a rewrite again this year. Addressed the need for mental health services section and suggested adding an information section pertaining to drop-in and emergency services available in the city and the need to communicate our service models consistantly and get a clear answer from the city as to why they lack adequate places to send our youth and when they will come up with the funding needed for programs like ours that do provide them on little to no financial support. Then went over the terrible response we got while executing the homeless youth count in nyc, by the providers who it should have mattered most to.

Hey Lucky,
When you solve all these social problems in NYC please come start a MCCTC back home... try the heartland if you run out of sorrows. (On a very happy note - Ben and Michael are praying together!)
