Roosevelt Rd.,#204, in Chicago. Those in attendance were: Drew Browning*, Katie Silverman, Alana Yvonne Smith*, Rob Rotman*, Amy Serpe, Melinda Morrissey*, Juliana Recio. (*=DACC Board Member). Drew Browning had been asked by Larry Voss earlier in the day to chair the meeting since no officers were able to attend. The meeting was convened at approximately 5:45pm. Due to low attendance, the meeting was declared to be informal. However the following topics were discussed: Several people expressed concern over the low attendance and particular concern was expressed over missing non-disabled members who may be feeling uncomfortable about coming. Drew Browning was the only person present who had received the minutes from the last meeting but, unfortunately, did not bring them with. Much of the meeting was spent reviewing what had happened at the last meeting for those who were not there. Amy Serpe suggested we send out a questionnaire to all people on the mailing list to find out if they are still interested, able to attend meetings, willing to serve on committees etc. Everyone thought that was a good idea. The remaining time for the meeting was spent working on the questionnaire which Amy Serpe will bring to the next meeting. The meeting adjourned at 7:30pm.
