Several members expressed appreciation for Long Table's work. Board Member Coni Brown
remarked on the significant change Lawrenceville has experienced over the years. She said that
initiatives like Community Connections had contributed to it.
ReCAST General Program Update
Program Manager Marcus Thorne provided updates regarding:
* Progress toward grant deliverables -- while some elements are in the planning stage, each element
is either underway or being planned for completion prior to the grant's year-end. Specifically, 1) a
mini-documentary vendor has been selected; Marcus offered much gratitude to Members Teonna
Dorsey and Coni Brown, and also toward the City's communications department; 2) Together 4
Wellness is scheduled for May 15, and planning has begun; 3) Trauma-informed training outreach
has begun; feedback is being sought from LPD.
*ReCAST Awareness Progress -- a collaborative behavioral health promotion has been planned, and
draft collateral has been developed. Marcus sought feedback from members regarding the three
designs. Additionally, a draft year-end ReCAST results card was shared. Member Chanda Floyd-
Bryant encouraged that the card be translated into Spanish. A member asked about the ReCAST
impact in the Latino community. He committed to working with the data evaluator to determine
whether our data can be disaggregated to demonstrate that impact.
*Outreach and event updates -- Marcus shared his recent outreach events, which included
Lawrenceville Elementary School, tabling at a Village of Hope Event (Christmas Extravaganza), and
Phoenix High School. Member Coni Brown encouraged Marcus to connect with additional local
churches.
