Long Range Planning Committee Meeting Minutes August 29,1990 this is a function of a Jewish Community Center. Bea suggested that maybe JFSA could help facilitate something like they have in San Diego sponsored by the Jewish Family Services agency where they rent a home and provide meals and an opportunity to socialize. David felt that the agency needed to keep a counseling component to keep the agency focused. Bill suggested adding and information and referral program similar to a program he had received information about but needed to review. Arlene suggested Bill bring the information about this program to the next meeting. Adopt a senior and a foster grandparent programs mentioned as possibilities. David suggested the Board committees fine tune program ideas and if the Board develops the new programs they have to also provide a way to fund it. Bea questioned if the agency can afford to hire another counselor. A discussion ensued about increase in expenses and revenues of the fund-raising goals are met. Bea recommended that the Board work on one new task immediately i.e. adopt a grandparent so they can get enthusiastic about it. Bill suggested that the Board establish a specific committee for services for the elderly. They report back to the Board with an action plan to be proposed to the Board.
