 Yeah, so I just have a couple PowerPoint slides. I just wanted to start off with this Yeah, so when I was a much younger person and stay overnight with my grandmother She was a big Robert Shuler fan. Remember Minister Robert Shuler from California Garden Grove El Cuenita Crystal Cathedral, and he said tough time to last but Tough times never lasts but tough people do and so I think we have to remember that We can get through adversity, right? There's some help from each other A resource page So this was compiled So NDSU extension so the the point of this is just to share some resources that we have gathered Extension has a page With a number of resources on it for COVID-19 2019 so I'll just click on that quickly. So Obviously I work in communities with communities, but there are a number of resources here for NDSU extension on economics Obviously food and sanitizing and working with older adults and also economics youth and family. So Feel free to share those resources with the folks you work with or with your community members On the next one is zoom and I have shared that in the chat pod And again, Nicole Smith a colleague of ours developed this And we are all learning the finer points of zoom obviously a little hiccup this morning. So Thanks for working with us. So this is what this looks like And you should be able to click on that and save that onto your own computer. I've shared that in the chat pod so Good things here Okay So the next resource so I just I Took a screenshot. So my son uses this and I have started to use this it's called slack and it's a way to basically It's a Protecting but to group text. So this is what what his looks like you can set up groups to text Jody, yeah, can you make your screen larger that it or open it in full PowerPoint mode? You got it. What's so Now we're seeing the notes on the next slide. I don't know. We just need to see one page Sorry, no, how's that I Know we're all learning this together Sorry, sorry Anyway, so it's probably not very prominent obviously, but I just wanted to You know, we're all learning alternative methods to communicate and hold hold meetings and communicate with each other So slack is one of that one way to communicate by a text group Zoom is obviously one we've used a lot and that's why I've included that but Google duo is also another one I'm not necessarily endorsing any of these. I just want you to be aware that there are opportunities to continue to get together I Also on this resource sheet having included North Dakota Attorney General And I do that on many of you that have gone through our lead local program we talk about open meeting laws and record laws and We just can't lose sight of those things and there is a page on here for open meeting requirements during COVID-19 national emergency and I've taken a couple calls from township officers wanting to know How to conduct those meetings and so there is some information here regards to meeting notice requirements, so just Cognizant of those and that you're following those rules. I'm not sure why no Emily is on from Department of Commerce But I have also listed Department of North Dakota Department of Commerce I know that they are Wanting to do an inventory so you have they want to know how businesses are being affected by COVID-19 And so if you are a business owner or know of someone who has been affected by that They would like to have an inventory it's a short survey you can from access off of their website Yes, please do it um great. Thank you So this is a statewide survey and we're wanting to know how the coronavirus pandemic is impacting all types of businesses or organizations and So far we have about 500 responses and it's only been open for I don't know 12 hours I guess maybe closer to 20 But we're gonna have this open for about another week And then we're gonna close it and then we're gonna reopen the survey in 30 days because we hope to be able to see some Trends and get responses right now kind of at the beginning and then also later on so if anybody Is able to share this with local businesses within the next week that would be ideal because then we're gonna reopen it later on Thank you for that. I really appreciate the explanation So obviously there are resources on that site as well and I Heard Michelle Comer speak yesterday about some of the resources through the CARES Act And I suspect there'll be more coming with that. So some things to keep in mind there Also, there's a resource here on the next one is SBA and Then the Jamestown Regional Center for Entrepreneurship will be hosting a webinar tomorrow As we actually a zoom meeting Some folks from SBA will be explaining some of the resources. So if you care to take that in might be an opportunity So I'll just minimize some of these things clean this up. So are you seeing the slide that has some screenshots? Okay So I really wanted to I guess I've been so impressed by the things I've seen on social media about how creative businesses are becoming And that's what crisis does I suppose And so I just took some screenshots one the community of Garrison has been doing some pretty interesting things and I'll call on Michaela in a minute if you're willing to share some of the things that your business community is doing and how they support They are supporting each other And then the next one is from the white maid restaurant in Napoleon And I thought this was pretty great. They included pictures of Nefla soup and they ran out before this was at 1151 on Friday So they are getting pretty creative with social media. And then the fireside restaurant in Ellen De La included that it's kind of a An icon in the community and when Peggy she's the proprietor of that restaurant when she heard that the governor was closing Restaurants asking restaurants to close She said as much as I want to throw on the towel I can't won't give this to my best shot and then she posted that she was so overwhelmed with the support support the community has shown and I think there are stories like this all over our state and so We have to be creative and support each other. And so Michaela, I'm just going to minimize this Would you introduce yourself and Tell people what's going on in Garrison All right, can you hear me? Can you hear me? I can All right, so I'm Michaela Delos. I'm from the Garrison Convention and Visitors Bureau And obviously we're a small community of less than that around that 1500 and so we've really just tried to Do a lot more shop local. I mean shop local is always important But I think now more than ever we have to just be creative and trying to get that Just to try to get that in people's brains that you know, we need to help our local businesses else They're gonna fail especially because of the pandemic. So We've tried to do I'd like to take a lot of credit for a lot of the things that we're doing on social media But I've actually gotten a lot of great resources from a chamber professionals group. I'm a part of and it's comprised of people from all over the United States who are all dealing with this same pandemic problem and so they've They've landed a lot of ideas on creative ways to engage people through social media and remember remind them that You know shopping local is really important And so, you know, obviously Jody showed the shop or support local bingo I'm just trying to encourage people to support our local businesses that support that's been an enormous amount of money supporting our local school organizations our events Bringing the volunteers everything that makes a small community so great that now they need our help. So And obviously all the ways that are on that support local bingo are encouraging them to do things that they can obviously do from a distance You know, if I still abiding by that social distancing and so, you know It's using those social media to get on like a page, you know, write a great comment Do a great review on Google You know share something that's you know, you're grateful for in your local community Buy a gift card to use later You know it all go all goes down to you know instead of canceling your appointments reschedule You know, it's it's so important right now that you know, we continue trying to support those businesses as much as we can And so that's kind of what we've been doing. I know one big thing that You know, we've seen a lot of businesses try to be creative We've seen some that have just kind of Unfortunately thrown in the towel towel and don't really want to be super creative So they just closed down and and that's unfortunate But we've had a lot of businesses come up with some creative ideas on ways to make this work Because obviously I'm sure in a lot of small communities the grocery store is about the only business. That's really Really skyrocketing right now. I know our business our grocery store said their their sales are up by over 50% So I mean a huge increase for our grocery store, but the other businesses are obviously seeing the hurt from the pandemic. So Again trying to work together be creative You know, we've kind of tried to be the main area to try to share any COVID-19 updates as far as businesses closing are going to curbside only limited hours Whatever it might be just trying to give them one resource to go to one page where everything's in one place that they can see kind of what's happening In response to the COVID-19. So that's what we've been kind of doing another Unique thing besides our shop local campaigns that we've been trying to do And and maybe somebody can take this back to their community too is in the holiday season We do a Christmas cash promotion through our chamber. Basically what that is is that Our local we we work with our local bank on which it's locally owned So it's a lot easier to work with and so our crit we offer monopoly money Is basically what it is and you can go to the bank and you can apply for an interest-free loan up to so much so many dollars You get basically monopoly money fake monopoly monopoly money that you can spend at any of the local businesses that are participating And then the businesses end up actually paying the interest. So they lose 5% out of every dollar You know when they redeem that Christmas cash when they go to deposit it That's usually doing during our holiday season to try to obviously keep those dollars local while people are shopping for Christmas gifts And also to help them out on a time of need where you know, there's there's a lot of expenses coming in for buying Christmas gifts But I know one thing that's often our community is trying to implement that program again during this time You know as we see the pandemic hopefully coming to a little bit more of a closed end, you know is implementing a Care cash program where we would again offer Those interest-free loans to our community to spend local And we've actually had our economic development jump on board to say they would pay the interest So that the businesses get that full dollar value for that money that is being spent So I know that's in the works right now And we're hoping that that will encourage and allow more people to keep those dollars local to buy those bigger items if they need it Instead of holding off because our businesses truly need it. So I know that's one of the programs that You know, we're currently working on that. We've taken a program that's always been successful to us and try to implement it In the sense of the the pandemic and trying to help out Is there anything Jodi that else that you want to me to go over? I Appreciate you sharing that and again that's from Michaela from garrison anybody have any questions for her I have a question. So Michaela my name is Cindy and I'm NDSU extension in Sargent County. So those businesses that have like that kind of thrown in the towel Does that mean that they just they they've closed themselves totally and aren't even trying anything at all and if so, you know our community members, do you know on an individual basis approaching that person because Individually, you know, how is their well-being and their you know, mental and emotional health and things like that So one of them that you know, I'm one of them that I'm referring to would be one of our local restaurants Who obviously when the the governor made the executive order to shut down dine in? You know dining in four restaurants, you know instead of I think it's just the way he is And so I don't think it's I mean You know, he's not really a team player all the time so I think it comes stems from that but You know, it's unfortunate because there's a lot of ways even with the executive order We've seen a lot of restaurants come up with a lot of creative ways to still Still continue their business You know, obviously they're seeing a decline in business a little bit But you know, we've seen others that have skyrocketed as much as they can during a pandemic and not allowing You know people to be able to dine in and so Unfortunately, I think it's for him, especially I think it is mainly just You know not being a team player, which is unfortunate But our other business has stepped in or our other restaurant our other two restaurants have stepped in and they've come You know, they've obviously offered that delivery service to go is curbside All of that and I think that they've seen a lot of great things too, right? And I I understand that I just am worried about you know a person like that on a personal level because if they're you know, not like like you'll say not a team player or whatever, but just If they're personally tapped out and they don't have the energy or the you know, they're stuck To do to move forward with their business, you know, that could be a cry for help You know that they're they've disappeared, you know what I'm saying No, no, I exactly know what you're saying and we and somebody you should probably approach him and just find out and Honestly, I'm surprised that he wasn't open because before the executive order was made You know, I know I I discussed with somebody that had talked to him And he had came up with all these ideas of ways he could, you know, still continue his business even with this And so I don't know if it's lack of employees, you know I I don't know what what the case is but I do yeah, that definitely is a good point to try to reach out to him and see You know, if there's something we can do to help to get him, you know to open Right, not not shaming at all just concern On a personal level. Yeah, exactly Thank you so Really, this is just an opportunity to share some resources or examples of what's going well in your community Or if you have a question to ask if you have some good examples I know they're out there Is anybody else willing to share something that's working? Jody, I just wanted to mention that Karen posted in the chat A farm survey for small and beginning farmers So if that applies to you or someone, you know to or if Karen can speak to it But I just wanted to make everyone aware of that Hi, thanks. Marie. This is Karen errands I'm a member of the board of the North Dakota local food development alliance and last week or so farms organization posted a Survey wanting to hear from small farmers, especially about their needs And I know Stephanie right now is in the midst of a big grant application, which is why she's not on the phone But if you know of small farmers and farms is attempting to understand better their needs and gather that on that survey And then while this has been going on I just connected with Emily brown at North Dakota commerce So that we can facilitate sharing those Survey results with the department of commerce. So thanks for holding this Webinar zoom meeting so that we can connect to each other into the resources and tools that we all have available I also shared Earlier in the chat box The creating a hunger free North Dakota coalition website On our home page We've listed some easy links for people to be able to find food resources in the state The list of food pantries from the Great Plains food bank by county How you apply for SNAP tANF and Medicaid at the department of human services Information about applying for the WIC program So thanks everyone Thank you, Karen So I see emily from jamestown chamber has posted a resource or a link to resources there Emily would you mind saying a couple things about those resources if you Would mind i'm totally putting on the spot here, but Go ahead. I see that she posted. I don't have a microphone. So oh, I see that. Okay. Yeah, that's all right. Thank you for posting that Um, is there anyone else? I'm curious. I saw Uh Lori details on here. Lori. Do you have a microphone? Are you willing to just say hello? Yes, I'm here. Good morning. Good morning um What we've been doing in kerrigan or what I've been doing working from home because I have asthma and trying to limit exposure I am feeling isolated Because everybody knows what a social person I am but um, what we've been doing is um every monday I go on the radio anyway And um, so we've been doing that remotely and talking about the latest And then um, Tuesdays I go on another radio station and talk about things our big thing right now is facebook Trying to gather and share and then encouraging businesses to message me or text me or let me know What are you sharing so I don't miss it and then um, listening of course to a lot of these webinars and chats and things to try to um Keep up with what's happening across the state Um, and then sharing any information from public health, of course and from our hospital Things like that. I think our restaurants. Um, right away switched over to um take out and and that type of thing So I think that's been going pretty good. Our grocery store is going, you know bonkers over there. Um You know, I feel like we're okay. I think it's You know trying to share information about um employers or businesses what they need to Look forward to that's coming with the stimulus is important. Um, I did contact all our lenders and ask them Uh, you know, what's your plan? What can I tell our businesses? What are you telling our businesses? And then pass that on. Um, we are really encouraging um business people to Contact their local lender first and that they'll guide them through the process because I had some businesses ask about sba And they got on there and they were confused and it was red tape And so we're really encouraging local people to go to their local lender first And that might be Maybe a little better for them. Um in trying to maneuver through the system But yeah, if anybody has questions Great. Thanks. And that was lori from karrington So a couple things coming up in the chat. So melanie bower dukart is from usg role development and she just had to get off the call Um, just reminding us about their programs Um, keep in mind too, sonia. Thank you for posting that indiesu extension has a number of mental health resources So please take advantage of those Reach out to your local extension office if you need to access those or would like to access those for Media release or to even post off your own facebook page So sonia has been included a resource on that or link. So thank you for that And emily again from jamestown Let's post some other resource for small business Small business. Okay small business loan guide. Great. Thank you emily Hey, jody. This is emily brown. Can I share a couple of things that I've heard about? Yes, and then kody from wish it wants to say something too. So yes, please emily and then kody. Thank you. Okay, perfect so, um, there are a group of downtowners organizations that have a weekly call every monday And it's you know, generally the larger metro areas, but they're open to having any other organizations join They do a great job of sharing tips from across the state So some of the cool things that I heard about this week are the city of bizmark worked with the downtowners to create downtown pickup zones In our downtown that our areas were businesses that are still open and are doing takeout or Curbside pickup like for retail just designated areas for people to park and pick up their items They worked with the local beer or beverage distributor to To print and grommet the signs and they also put big signs up in all of the businesses that say open for takeout Some of them are doing virtual retail events. So they're working with their downtown retailers Where they'll have 30 minutes for each retailer to present through facebook live And then they're selling things through facebook or through Shopify as they're doing these events Um The city of grand forks is considering doing a drive-in movie night, which is a great way to get people out But still maintain social distancing requirements The city of williston their theater Even though they can't show movies. They actually had a Popcorn and soda takeout where they had people lined up for like six blocks in their cars Um driving up picking up popcorn and taking it home for a at home movie night A lot of the downtowners organizations are encouraging businesses to look at ways that they could set up subscription Based models where then they would be able to send One coffee a day or something and that's a way to get a slightly more reliable source of revenue Um one other great resource scott meyer at ndsu the nice center He has um 13 students who will provide free assistance to any business in north dakota helping them set up An online a website and moving their their business operations online Helping them figure out how to sell products online and that's completely free and they can do that from anywhere from 24 to 48 hours Emily can I say something about that? So I did include the nice center link on the resource page. Thank you for mentioning that. I meant to and failed to But I learned that um, so they will the nice center will help businesses set up that e-commerce platform By using Shopify. Just as you had mentioned and right now Shopify has a 90 day free trial So keep that in mind if businesses are thinking about that now was a great time to take advantage of that And again, as emily said students are available to help set that up. So Thank you. Sorry to interrupt. Oh, that's perfect. I'm glad you mentioned that um, the city of devils lake has done a scavenger hunt downtown. I assume people will be in their cars But it's just a way to kind of drive around Interact with local businesses even if you can't be be close to them in person You know, they were talking about doing a parade where people would get in their cars and drive through the downtown And then honk at all the businesses and the business people could come out and wave Just things to keep morale up and make sure that local businesses feel connected to the people in their community And then the last one is the city of grand forks has been doing industry specific listening sessions And they've had hundreds of people participate But they're kind of like this just a zoom meeting and then anybody can get on All the local businesses in particular industries and share ask questions brainstorm together Oh, one last one that I do want to share the city of hankinson They have like three restaurants and as soon as this situation started becoming a bigger deal for them The three owners collaborated and decided that each day only one of them would be serving takeout And they would all direct all of the customers to that one business So that's a great way to see more collaboration rather than competition I love that. That's great. Thanks. Emily good resources out there People are being awfully creative that's for sure Okay, so a cody you had a couple comments you wanted to share So cody is in a wish you want to introduce yourself and then go ahead Sure, just to be sure it's my can you hear me? I can hear you Awesome Um, so yep. I'm the director at the wishick job development authority also have a license to practice law So I've been going over this cares a lot and trying to get the details on it for the protection program Um, it is no matter how it shakes out. It's going to be a very generous program There is a lot of conflicting information about it from the sda's website It says the loan is forgetful for amounts that are Spent on rent mortgage interest utilities all of that the text does the actual act It's only predictable for Upstanding debt obligations before March 1st So just a basic example of conflicting information I really encourage everybody to make sure they're on every lesson that they can about this paycheck protection program I have reached out to the local lenders security state bank and secu just to make sure that They're aware of this it is Such a new program. They don't have a lot of guidance on it yet but if you're in a position to sort of be on top of your banks and local lenders and continue to you know push to Get more information on it. I just I I can't stress enough we're going to be In North Dakota, we're all going to complain about how The fat cat washington gets their share of 500 billion dollars This is the local little guy's chance to get And just really really really Everybody if you're in a position to help your businesses by knowing more about this Please please do Great. Thanks, cody. Anybody have any questions for cody follow up with that So Trish had a Yeah, go ahead Little thing we did a procession a car procession through wishick on sunday And it was our most popular facebook post that we've ever had including sauerkraut daypost so so Jody, I see a couple of things in the chat. Kelly has some information from the red cross I'm right. Hey, there she is. I'm here It's everybody. Hope everybody can hear me. So my name is kelly richardson. I'm baston dickinson. I actually own a Marketing and communications company and after I lend some stuff that's going on with the red cross I'd like to circle back on some stuff that we're advising our restaurant clients Right now, but I am on the board of directors for the red cross. Um, I also serve as a public affairs volunteer and we are Reminding everybody that we're still responding in our communities throughout north dakota to Um disasters and emergencies. So if there is house fires Um, we've retrained all of our volunteers throughout the state um, we have Uh, kind of new protocols in place to make sure it's safe for them to go out if it's not We'll do a virtual response, but we still have cash assistance for people that need hotel rooms and food assistance and clothing and shelter and everything people would need In the in the event of an emergency. Um, the other thing that's going on with the red cross is we are also Planning forward and looking at um spring flooding. So we're doing a lot of work in preparation for that so we kind of are juggling two things um and We've also canceled unfortunately over 400 blood drives now in north dakota Um, last numbers I saw on friday. We were down about 12 000 units for the state Um, there have been a couple of blood drives in fargo. There's one in watford city Um through a private hospital. I believe the first or second week of april Um, but if you are healthy and you can give blood, it's safe. Everybody's following protocols Um for sanitation and keeping people a great distance apart Um, so we are asking that people still donate blood because the last thing we want to do is um have A low blood supply in north dakota and throughout the united states um And if you are looking to do something with extra time, we're also still taking You know, we're always in need of volunteers and there's a lot of things that can be done Virtually so um if you have time to spare we can use you um Circling back to restaurants and this kind of applies to all businesses. We've been Working with businesses in north dakota and our out-of-state clients the last few weeks to get everybody operating online And integrate things. Um, what we're advising is first um Especially with gyms fitness centers and restaurants that utilize technology already in their businesses So if they have a system for ordering or they have a system for signing up with classes What we're advising them to do is first check with those technology platforms to see what solutions they have Rather than spending the money or more importantly spending the time on bringing in a new platform um, it's There a lot of times there's a quick plug-in that's available that people might not know about And it's easier to add that into your existing system Then try to reinvent the wheel um, the other more most important thing is that we're also advising clients right now is to Walk your talk If you are telling people that you're sanitizing and you're following safe Solutions for those businesses that are still open and even the restaurants that are that are doing takeout Make sure that you're following protocols in your communications. If you're using video communications um, if you're doing curbside pickup making sure you're wearing gloves Not filming videos that have your entire staff within a few feet of each other um A lot of our restaurant clients have taken strides internally not to bring back a ton of employees But to just bring back what they need so they can keep them six feet apart in the restaurant so it's important that Businesses that are staying up open realize that they are leaders. They're setting a precedent They're in the eye of the community and they really they really need to Follow the protocols show that they're following protocols and set good examples for other businesses Excellent point. Thank you for sharing those resources um, those of us who work in leadership development I In many of you have participated in our rlnd program real leadership north dakota lead local In many of many others and if we ever if our communities need leaders, it's now um, you're equipped and um step step up Do what you can for your community So trish had posted that foreman will be having a blood drive in april april 7th Carington on april 20th. So do what you can with that um, so I Had some questions about how do I access these links? So I did repost the resources page and i'm not sure to me it says network disconnect So are people seeing that? And the chat pod want to make sure you get those I can email them out to everyone that we've gotten That we included in our email list too And if you're not seeing those Department of health has posted some guidelines for food establishments. Okay. Thank you Yep, lindy. I will email those unless someone has some I'm gonna share my screen again One thing I noticed um, just to pop in here Yes, lord Emily middleton's out of jamestown asked if any chambers had applied for sba loams Just wondering, you know, it's a good um topic to maybe talk about amongst ourselves Has anyone thought about that? That was lori from carington. Is it anyone else? She's asking about those sba loans. Has anyone applied for those? Just probably a little early in the game, but um, Yeah, emily if you're still listening we maybe should um organize something And see what chambers are doing to um survive The virus as well I was on a call yesterday with cvbs and the state tourism department and um, that is very bleak That particularly particular sector gets their Funding from lodging tax and of course with the vacancies and empty hotels everywhere. It's going to be very Bleak for 2020 for funds for those organizations Okay Thank you lori So if anybody has any suggestions, I'm not sure why that file is not showing Sorry Jodi could we put that on our um corona Various link on page for ndsu our resource page Yes, that's a great idea. I'll make a note to do that So we'll list it on the our covet 19 resource page on ndsu extension um Again, I just encourage you to go there for a number of resources and links to other agencies that we work with trying to Read in the chat here Your other questions or concerns Yes, Eric. Where in where are you from? I'm with uh, grand forks. I'm with the small business administration Oh, great. Thank you. Um, certainly chambers if they are a 501 see, um Organization they they are eligible to apply For a disaster loan Okay, it's just something. Um, I just wanted to say I think kody mentioned it that with Right now we do have our disaster loans out there. There is a One part of it where you can get $10,000 in a very quick It's sort of it's an advance And that that is available on the disaster portal if you go to the sba.gov. It's in the yellow right on top There will be more guidelines coming out for the paycheck protection program Which is going to offer some similar Things and some of that may be forgiven. We're trying to be very careful right now We don't have all of the programs and hopefully by tomorrow I'm going to be working with jamestown tomorrow to do that webinar And I hope that we have some some good solid information that we can share at that time But we will be getting the information out as soon as we can So I'm sorry. So you'll be presenting with jamestown entrepreneurs. You're the presenter for that. Yes Awesome. Okay. Great. Thank you Appreciate that Okay, a number of you will be on that. I'm trying to I'm going to email this to marie and see if maybe You can post the resource page. Well, we will get it posted on the extension site Sure. Go ahead. I'll sir try Jody and I also wanted in the chat. I know molly put a link up from north Some resources And then there was a comment about slack. Oh Is it shelly? Marco polo is another opportunity for a free video type of chat I know what's app is another one that's out there. So yes a lot of different ways to connect Rebecca boxer is another good app for communicating. Okay Voice and text great What's another one group meet, okay My gen z son is here over my shoulder advising me Okay, just reading these sorry Google hangouts another one So I I don't know if I see dr. Johnson out of lisbon. I see your your picture I want to put you on the spot if you don't want to say anything you don't have to I'm just curious how How school is progressing lisbon if you're willing to say a few things Technology working okay and everyone's adjusting I'll be careful We kicked off our distance learning on Monday um The 23rd So we crash course for about five days Flipping our whole school Into a whole new program our our plans were now approved by the governor's office Uh, and now it's time to assess the damage To find out exactly where we're at Um, so we're working on that this week I've also been in communication with extension jan from extension Finding ways in which NDSU can help out In those areas in the community. So that's been a really good support for us here Sometimes you need to go to those systems that were earlier developed Such as extension they have a presence in all 53 counties in the state And is a valuable resource and many times educators forget That they can get some great resources from Extension, so I I've been pushing that out um We're also working hard, um with the center of distance ed They've been around since 1935 They also have been doing distance learning For a long time. So I think once again, they're a valuable resource Most of us are in what you would call information overload Where we're gathering so much and a lot of times they come with offers of four free months And then they're going to automatically charge your credit card So I advise people to be a little careful on those Um, I would also be very very careful that You don't promote something that may not necessarily Meet those people's needs in the area of handicapped accessibility So there is a lot of stuff out there that may not meet those requirements And so you have to be careful, um And then of course the other one that we deal with we are a public school So the open public records laws and um Furpa are two things that we have to really watch closely So, um We're in that process right now and seeing where we're at we uh as a state organizations are meeting On a daily basis I've just been asked by dr.
