<br />D. Committee Reports <br /> <br />1. Networking <br />Farrah started the report. <br />Items on this topic included: Facebook Account, Website & Reaching Out to <br />Organizations in the Communities <br /> <br />a. Facebook <br />Farrah consulted with Margaret, who is our appointed legal representative. <br />Margaret will do some research and get back to us. Margaret believes <br />that a County Facebook page needs to be managed by a County <br />employee. She advised that because it needs to be managed by a <br />County employee that we delay trying to get Facebook page until we get a <br />new County employee in place. We will wait for Margaret’s response. <br /> <br />Farrah’s suggestions on this topic: <br /> <br />The purpose of the Facebook page is to get the information out to the <br />community and make is easily available to them. Facebook has multiple <br />features that may allow us to have different administrators. The County <br />employee could be the primary administrator of the page and we could <br />have other individuals from this committee also be administrators of the <br />page so that would alleviate all the work from going to the County <br />employee. <br /> <br />Facebook has the potential to have discussions and if the County is afraid <br />of the potential damage that could be caused by these open forum <br />discussions, the discussion/comment features could be disabled. <br /> <br />These thoughts have been passed on to Margaret for consideration. <br /> <br />b. Reaching Out to Communities <br />Farrah has been in touch with Marci of the Girls Scouts. The beginning of <br />the year is a busy time for the Girl Scouts so this committee will reconnect <br />with Marci later in the month of September. <br /> <br />At this point, this committee is just trying to get information from Girls <br />Scouts on what is the status of Girls Scouts on this island - what are the <br />types of projects or programs that are present on the island, whether or <br />not that’s something that we can support in any way and/or if we can help <br />connect them with other existing programs. This is an exploratory <br />conversation at this time point – looking at what the potential might be for <br />future collaborations. There are no proposals or commitments at this point. <br /> <br />c. Website <br />Similar to the Facebook inquiry above, Margaret is looking into the details <br />about a website for the Committee on the Status of Women. <br /> - 4 - <br /> <br />
