I was connected with Ray Gordon from RI, who works on the SCIP side with the RI SAA. He mentioned he was starting a SCIP newsletter and I met with him on the 24th of October via Zoom to discuss his ideas and vision for the newsletter as well as to see what type of guidance and support I could provide. He's still in the development phase but wants to include program highlights, organization spotlights, staff spotlights, and potentially advisory board meetings.
