Omni Comms/Org Wg - 11 January 2017

attendees

  • Niki, Rilke, Julian

announcements / updates

  • heard back from Molly @ CJJC about ICE raid rapid response. turns out there isn't currently a system but one is being worked on. did not seem that it would make sense for Omni per se to support this, but if individuals were interested, Julian could introduce you to Molly
    • doesn't sound like we need to duplicate, but if there is any way to support? Julian will write to Molly

event/meeting requests

  • commons keeps forwarding larger paying events, but now they kinda know
  • why flurry / now not so much?
    • sorta coincidental, but a few groups have formed & are now meeting here
    • could make a new flyer that's not trump specific - Julian or Niki or anyone that wants to

discussions

  • organize folding toward communications
  • omni commoner
    • this getting done even just once a month would be great
    • Julian will check in with Jenny about this
    • info was gathered mostly by pulling together from the events & Jenny has been involved heavily in the working groups & checking in to see if there are updates there & then someone in the community would be profiled
    • hey Jenny I'm going to take over the newsletter, any words of wisdom?
  • communications breakdown around recent event
    • are there ways we can support commons wg around this?
  • No More Presidents
    • was a success, but only half followed thru on Jenny's suggestion to organize for Omni at it
      • we used to more regularly at large / more regular events ask folks to make an announcement
      • perhaps we could have a kit to rep Omni (elevator pitch / sign up sheet)?
        • signup sheet + blurb, & a place that someone checks at least semi-regularly
          • Julian can make a sign up sheet - first half hour or so could be calling people & checking
        • Niki is able to add folks to the mailing list
    • check in w/ those folks about follow up stuff?
      • we were excited to have you, how did you think it went, how
        • Niki will write [a person] an email & they can contact us
  • D.A. Trainings
    • for YBCA youth
      • still haven't heard back from this person, they know we're here if they would like us to... but do we wanna create extra work for ourselves / for anyone else
  • New Condo?
    • Julian will find out?
  • quarterly? newsletter
    • let's formally solicit stories from collectives with goal of a newletter by first week of February
      • Dear Member Collective / Working Group, We of the communications working group are putting together the next issue of our newsletter. We'd love for you to submit a story of [e.g.] 250-500 words by December 10th.
