[Opds-contracts] Feedback Survey & Reminder for 7/30 Provider Call

[Kaysea R. Dahlstrom]

Hello,

This is a reminder that OPDS will be hosting a call this Thursday, July 30th, at noon to solicit input from public defense providers on our policies and procedures related to legal services contracts. More specifically, we would like to hear from providers about how we can improve our procedures for issuing and responding to Requests for Proposals (RFPs) for legal services, and how we can create more transparent and equitable policies for evaluating proposals and offering contracts. All public defense providers are welcome to join this conversation, including consortia contract administrators and members, non-profit leadership and employees, law firm leadership and employees, and individual attorneys who contract with OPDS.

We encourage you to provide us with written feedback via the survey link below.
Please provide us with written feedback (a) if you are unable to attend the July 30th meeting, and/or (b) if you have a few minutes to send your thoughts now. We would like the conversation at the meeting to be productive, so anything you would like to suggest or share ahead of time will help us with that.
Please go to this survey to provide us with feedback: https://s.surveyplanet.com/Z-BF9UHGR<https://gcc02.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fs.surveyplanet.com%2FZ-BF9UHGR&data=02%7C01%7CKaysea.R.Dahlstrom%40opds.state.or.us%7Cba13d364fbf14e29b35708d829e55448%7C9b3a1822c6e047c7a089fb98da7887be%7C0%7C1%7C637305412238286698&sdata=ZVibcuujLrKHk15qRqGHKm2QoOIdtPSJmdfGu2fv2Qo%3D&reserved=0>
Feel free to answer as many or as few of the questions on the survey as you would like. The questions provided are intended to be helpful prompts, but you may only want to answer a few, or you may have different topics that you would like to discuss.

We look forward to hearing your feedback and suggestions on Thursday, July 30th from noon to 2pm on Microsoft Teams.
