First Board Meeting! (11.10.08)
11 11 2008Thank you, Majesta, Dena, Kim and Crystal for taking time to be apart of Star Shooter! The meeting was great and I believe we synergized well together! For those of you who were not present: we have decided to have 2008 to be more brain storming and research, as well as meet a key person involved with non-profits here in myrtle beach. By 2009, we will begin working with kids at Teach My People (an after school program).
A few key points made during the meeting were:
- remain global-minded, culturally adaptive, to allow SS to go beyond borders.
- think about coining a different name rather than “phototherapy” so as to not just be limited to therapy, but as an intervention or a mentor program.
- think big! we want SS to be state of the art, not function out of a poverty-mentality.
- get out and do it! work with the kids already, and learn as you go. (2009 here we come!)
Next meeting will be arranged by Crystal within the next week, so stay tuned!
