The final decision of announcement & application will be announced to full RRWG once done. .
(Kay D. 2nd by Doug G.)
Discussion: need full RRWG input into the application; consumer-run definition document sent by Bill Y. earlier (and distributed at meeting) should be used when developing application; Need to clarify how the Final version of application is going to be sent out to solicit proposals for funds; once application is decided upon for this particular task, we need to develop a process for decision-making and consensus building (parking lot) .

Comment on progress of spending recovery funds: “We’ve already established capacity at NVMHI to designate & spend funds related to regional community support center. We’ve already established capacity at Pathways to designate and spend funds on other specific recovery projects. There is already capacity at some consumer-run programs in the community that are ready to go. We need to focus on making decisions on the applications and process for awarding funds to get additional funds spent rather than impeding progress.”
