Two members noted that the Video Survey fits into this framework as it provides an opportunity to publicly state people’s concerns about climate and equity. The slide deck will be posted.  Video Survey – next steps Shambarger reported that he and Evans talked with Ben Stillerman from Tank Brain about ways to increase use of the platform. A primer screen has been added which says “Get ready to be on camera” and information on translation services is posted. Creating a short promo clip of the survey was also discussed with Stillerman. Evans gave a brief presentation making two asks of all the Work Group members: - Invite organizations in your internal and external networks to respond to the survey - Let us know which organizations you reached out to – a link to a separate Google sheet will be provided. An invitation template, flyer, and link to the Google sheet will be sent via email. Evans is meeting with the other Work Groups to promote distribution of the Survey. Social Pinpoint was recently purchased by the city. Evans will work with Shambarger to launch this platform, which will provide another opportunity for community input.  Events Team update  Soft Launch Event McAlister gave a presentation on this Zoom event, which is targeting community leaders. The purpose is to build connections and encourage leaders to invite people in their networks to the Kick-off Event. It was confirmed that it will be offered on June 10 at 6PM and 12noon.  Kick-off event: June 10 at 6PM was confirmed as the date, with a recording available. Offering hybrid events was discussed but may not be feasible at this time. The target audience is community leaders residing within the county. Discussion included a request to be consistent with language, e.g. the name used to date is the “Milwaukee Climate and Equity Action Plan” according to Ritger and Frank. It was agreed that we should find out if funds are available for translators and interpreters. Given the short time frame, we need to reach out to Work Group chairs and let them know we are looking for a summary of the solutions they are considering. 3.
