<p>I'd say meeting time accessibility is not an interest, it's a non-negotiable requirement. Unconscious bias creates exclusion and all that.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p>This group must lead by example, and it would be sad for the first step to be a misstep.<o:p></o:p></p>

the best answers to our most pressing challenges. To achieve this, the Board formed this Work Group to determine what actions are required to fulfill this commitment. Three Board members volunteered to work with community members in this Work Group and bring
updates/requests to the Board for discussion and action on a regular basis, starting with the July meeting.<o:p></o:p></p>
