3. Safety Net Update

= Meredith Hurley did a presentation to the Town Council at the May
meeting; she credited John Morgan for pushing the program, but does not
mention in the Transcript that WCOD is funding 100% of the program—the
only reason this is important is to demonstrate that we are using the 22G
funds to support townwide programs

e We need a liaison to work with Meredith and make sure that the town
understands where the money is coming from, especially in view of the cut
of programs because of grant ineligibility due to 3A non-compliance; find
out when training is
