FW: BHRC [Committee Chair] Call June 3 @ 9 AM (EDT)
To all BHRC Committee Members -
At the last Oversight Committee meeting, it was decided to open up this weeks Committee Chair call to all members, due to the nature of some of the updates - TC action items from OC, Annual meeting planning, SRP/ERP, & funding/budgets.
These calls are intended to enhance communication between committees - not to actually work issues. Consequently, they last approx. 45 min - 1 hr at most.
The agenda and information to join the call are below.
As usual, minutes for the call will be posted to the website once they are finalized. So if you miss the call, you can always review the minutes.
Regards, Lorraine
