Hi everyone,
Happy Friday! We wanted to send you a quick update on the 2021 work following the brainstorming sessions.
First, THANK YOU to all of you who participated in the sessions. We learned a lot, and we look forward to continuing this work with you. We shared out THE NOTES [[link removed]] and a SURVEY [[link removed]] , and we used these to inform meetings this week.
In short, 2021 will be heavily focused on strengthening our movement on the ground and creating a more connected network. We will put our resources into grassroots efforts and help support the work you are doing in your communities. Some other things we are thinking about based on what we've heard:
*
Creating
a
model
for
true
youth
leadership
including:
more
youth
representation,
prioritizing
youth
making
decisions,
and
creating
better
feedback
loops.
*
Improving
communication
across
the
org.
*
Finding
more
ways
for
young
people
to
collaborate.
*
Creating
accessible
opportunities
for
professional
development.
NEXT STEPS:
*
2nd
Survey
:
Post-election,
we'll
send
around
another
survey
that
will
be
a
little
more
specific
to
campaigns,
policy
efforts,
etc.
so
that
you
all
can
weigh
in.
*
Regional
Planning
:
We
recognize
that
what
is
effective
or
important
for
chapters
varies.
Post-election,
we
will
hold
regional
planning
sessions
so
that
chapters
in
our
7
regions
can
work
to
plan
for
the
things
that
will
be
effective
in
individual
areas.
Schedule
to
come
post-election!
*
1st
Draft
of
Plan:
Following
the
above
actions,
we
will
write
a
first
draft
of
the
2021
plan
and
share
it
out
for
feedback.
We also heard that people want to have more of a say in how MFOL spends money for programs. So, we plan to share a breakdown of where we think we will spend money on activities next year. We just need a little time to build it out since the budget corresponds directly to our strategic plans! Also, please know that these numbers will be estimated since how much we have to spend depends on how much money we can raise!
If you have any questions/comments/concerns, please feel free to reach out, either to me directly or through any other staff member.
Good luck in these last few days!
Alexis Confer
Executive Director
