RE:LGBT Vision Summit
You have been invited to participate in a LGBT Vision Summit meeting on Sept 28 from 11am-2pm at the
Boulder County Health Complex in Boulder.This is an effort to build a coalition that will work to value
and celebrate the unique history and expression of each person’s full identity (including the full spectrum
of gender and sexual expression.)
LGBT Vision Summit Fall Agenda (3 hours)
:
1.Introductions and review progress (30 minutes)Review the results of the small group meetings.
2.Getting practical(60 minutes):What are we called as a group? Are we a collaboration/cohort?
What do we need to make this work? How do we want to move forward?
3. Expand the Coalition (30 minutes):Who have people brainstormed and approached—were they
invited to attend this meeting? Who is still missing? Set a plan for expansion and inclusion and
identify a leader for that.
4.Set goals (30 minutes): Choose up to 3 goals as a group that we will focus on for 2013. Identify
who is already working on these issues or may be working on these issues to be approached and
asked how they are working on the issues, how we as a collective can support them; and identify
gaps.
