The meeting was called to order at 12:00 by Joyce Figueroa de Raschke

Introductions were made.

Joyce passed around the announcement re; the Suquamish Tribe's Conference, "No Longer Living in Silence". Some DVTF members are already going, a few expressed interest in going.

Joyce brought up the issue of funding DVTF events. Discussion followed with many good suggestions including donations from the community for give-away items.

Joyce plans to contact the commissioners on 3/23 to request they do a "proclamation" re; the DVTF Quarterly on April 28. Joyce will also develop a flyer that we can use to advertise the Quarterly and will send it out to the Board for approval.

Quarterly: April 28th at Crossroads Neighborhood Church, 6-8 PM. Jake Fawcett, Program Specialist at WSCADV will do a presentation on "Washington State Domestic Violence Fatality Review". The DVTF Board will meet at 4:30 PM for a Board meeting, and to set up for the Quarterly.

All Board members are asked to bring a 12-pack of pop/water or 2 bags of ice.

The Board voted and approved spending up to $100. on food/snacks for the Quarterly.

Joan will contact Jake to get topic/program info for Joyce to use on the flyer.

Board members who are putting together baskets for the Quarterly silent auction should e-mail Joan with info about basket contents so she can put together the forms to be used for the silent auction. It was decided that 5 baskets would be a good number. Coordinate with Barbara and Sue if you have donations or ideas for the silent auction.

Newsletter: Get a hold of Joan if you have items for the newsletter. It needs to go out by the first part of April in order to adequately advertise the Quarterly.
