<p><span style="font-family:"Calibri",sans-serif;color:black"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p><span style="font-family:"Calibri",sans-serif;color:black">Our monthly virtual meetings seem a bit star-crossed of late, with rescheduling and cancellations and so forth. It’s just a side-effect of our all being busy and invested and overscheduled, so no
one will be surprised that I’m moving the August meeting (originally scheduled for Aug. 16). <o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p><span style="font-family:"Calibri",sans-serif;color:black"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p><span style="font-family:"Calibri",sans-serif;color:black">We will now meet to talk about
<b>Family Engagement</b> on <b>Thursday, August 31, at 1:00 pm ET, 12:00 pm CT, 11:00 am MT, 10:00 am PT</b>. I am hosting via old-school conference call and Google Doc – as we’ve done a couple times before, we’ll have the document open during our call, and
can collaboratively take notes before, during, and after the call. <o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p><span style="font-family:"Calibri",sans-serif;color:black"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p><span style="font-family:"Calibri",sans-serif;color:black">The doc is here in our YSCON meetings folder:<o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p><span style="font-family:"Calibri",sans-serif;color:black">I’ll send a reminder a week or so before the meeting. If you plan to attend, please consider bringing the story of a notable/innovative/inspirational family engagement initiative that you are involved
with, and/or that is taking place in your state. Also, you may want to look at the PLA Family Engagement initiative and its activities:

<p><span style="font-family:"Calibri",sans-serif;color:black">Also, time permitting, we could at least touch on the Poverty & Social Issues topic originally scheduled for July. Please email me if you have specific content you’d like to discuss, or questions
you want to ask the group.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
