I want to remind everyone of the board meeting this Thursday night at the CLC
again.
This time, for sure, I have attached a copy of the minutes for our meeting but I
will have printed copies there since I sent to the wrong address and now you are
getting it so late.
See you there.

Board members,
Can we have a board meeting in one week on June 26th?  7 pm at the CLC
would work for me.  Let me know if you can NOT come.  The last item of
business for that meeting will be to set the date for the next board
meeting so we can get back on schedule so check you calendars for late
September.

Boy, we had a great board training session on April 22!!
Unfortunately, none of you were there and I hardly remember it myself,
SO, I have rescheduled it for MAY 22 at 7 pm at a place to be
determined.
Please let me know if you can not attend.  I would like all officers
and board members to be there.
Davod

I have tentatively scheduled a board training session for Thursday,
April 22 at 7 pm.  The training will be by the lady who is the
executive director of the Lubbock Volunteer Center.  She is Bernie
Bass's wife but I have gone blank on her first name.  Board members,
PLEASE let me know if that is not a good time for you.
David

I have received this message and am moving it here for any possible help.

I am trying to locate half-way houses for the mentally ill in Texas.
My client is a 28 year-old female with schizoaffective disorder. Her
dedicated parents have accomplished all that they can with her at
home. Both work and are unable to be constant schedule monitors. We
believe she will be more cooperative in a non-family environment. She
has never been a danger to others. Due to appropriate medication
management, she is not a danger to herself. Her maladaptive behavior
was cutting. I am interested in all such resources in Texas because we
haven't decided whether it would be best to keep her near so she can
continue in our DBT program or better to move her out of the area away
from her current friends in Lake Jackson and Houston.

I have started a list of people who wish to get our newsletter by
email.  I convert the newsletter file into a .pdf file and that makes
it easy to send and receive.  So far the list is only 2 school nurses
from our school nurse presentation.  Let me know if there are others.
David

The school nurse conference this Saturday will be at the Region 17
Service Center at 1111 W Loop 289.  If you can help man the booth,
please be there at 11:30 am.  The schedule is listed below:

     SPRING CONFERENCE AGENDA

     8:00-8:30   REGISTRATION

     8:30-8:45   WELCOME by Teenya Gilbert

     8:45-10:00   FETAL ALCOHOL SYNDROME OVERVIEW
           DENESE THETFORD, M. Ed.

     10:00-10:15   BREAK

     2:00-3:30   MEDICAL INTERVENTIONS
           KAREN ROGERS, M.D.

     3:30-4:00   EVALUATION AND CONCLUSION

The school nurses conference on mental illness is this Saturday and I
would like to get some help with the table we will have to pass out
literature and promote NAMI.  I forgot to ask where the conference is
but suspect it is at the LISD admin building.  I will find out on
Wednesday and let everyone know.  I don't see a need for us to get
there until 11:30 am when their lunch break starts.  DeAnna and I are
doing a presentation on our families experience and a summary of the
different mental illnesses in children.  We start at 12:30 pm and go
until a break at 1:45 pm.  Dr. Rogers follows us and the conference
will end after a 30 minute summary session at 3:30 pm.  I need folks
to hand out brochures and answer questions during lunch and the
breaks.  I think our table will actually be in the main room so that
you can hear the presentations if you are interested.
