Home

D. Outreach (Teen Dating Violence, Real Women Essay, Ma'i Movement, MM2022) • Teen Dating Violence Cards Mele said the cards are still being made and that there is a $300 budget for it. Due to ongoing issues with printing it with the current vendor, Mele said that Allen said to outsource it to a county vendor who is on O'ahu, which may take up to a year to complete. ACTION ITEM: Farrah -Marie and Shana will follow up with Allen about the Teen Dating Violence cards. • Real Women Essay Contest Farrah-Marrie said there is video footage of the latest essay contest participants to be edited into 3-5 minute segments, but Na Leo Community Television is no longer working out due to a staffing change. Mihaela said she can do the edits. • Ma'i Movement No report at this time. Farrah -Marie said she is looking into how the committee can continue to support this project. • Malama Makuahine Year of the Mother 2022 Mihaela said that the Mayor's Proclamation is complete and she has the hard copy. She also said that on January 5, 2022, the committee is invited to an official presentation of the Year of the Mother 2022 where they will present the county resolution and serve a luncheon for us all on the Mayor's lanai. She said an email will be sent to all of the committee members to RSVP. County of Hawaii MITCHELL D. ROTH COMMITTEE ON THE STATUS OF WOMEN Mayor c/o 655 Kilauea Avenue • Hilo, Hawaii 96720 (808) 961-0466 • Fax (808) 961-8908 Shana presented the latest version of the proposed budget. Mele said it should be more substantive to a higher purpose than what is listed on the budget, such as travel to Honolulu for legislative advocacy. Shana responded by saying that there is no clear direction on what the Outreach Subcommittee is supposed to do, so that is the reason for this budget item, which is part of the overall project. Mihaela suggested the committee table the budget until January 19, 2022, in order to review the existing budget and create a better narrative for it. Shana agreed. MOTION: Kahea motioned to table the Revised Budget for the Malama Makuahine Year of the Mother 2022 project until the January 19, 2022 committee meeting for further discussion and a vote. Mele seconded the motion. All committee members voted in favor of the motion. Motion passed. Shana presented the flag design and flyer for the project. Elena suggested fixing the graphic to make it more to scale. Mele suggested printing it on a heavy paper Instead of a flimsy copy paper version. Shana said everyone can print out their own on any paper or just send as emails in order to save on printing cost and time. MOTION: Elena motioned to approve both the flag design as is and the flyer design with a graphic edit. Mele seconded the motion. All committee members voted in favor of the motion. Motion passed.
