New Business<\/h2>\n

3. NCNMLG Letterhead \u2013 Amy Studer<\/strong>
\nNCNMLG printed high quality letterhead and envelopes about a decade ago and we still have a lot of remaining stock. However, the address is now outdated and the design is not amenable to modifying the address in a way that looks nice. The group discussed that we rarely use the printed letterhead. The Executive Board agreed unanimously that, rather than print new letterhead, we should move to electronic letterhead to reduce cost and eliminate the need to ship the stationary with new board transitions. The group agreed to recycle the existing letterhead and envelopes and move to an electronic version. Deanna suggested placing blank letterhead on the member\u2019s only page of the website.<\/p>\n

Action item<\/span>:<\/strong>\u00a0 Chezire will modify the banner from the website to create new electronic letterhead and she will create return address labels. The electronic stationary will be stored in the member\u2019s only section of the NCNMLG website.<\/p>\n

4. AHIP Subsidy \u2013 Ana Macias \/ Raquel Abad<\/strong>
\nAna reported that the Upstate New York and Ontario Chapter of MLA has begun offering support for a first time AHIP applicants and she is wondering if NCNMLG would be interested to doing something similar. NCNMLG could set its own eligibility criteria.<\/p>\n

The Upstate New York and Ontario Chapter of MLA has the following criteria:
\n\u2022 MLA member
\n\u2022 Chapter member
\n\u2022 First time applicant at the \u201cmember\u201d level or above
\n\u2022 Chapter reimburses 50% of cost for a successful applicant ($97.50)<\/p>\n

Carmen recommended that we consider placing a requirement of NCNMLG membership for a minimum period of time (2-3 years). Deanna reports that we have funds, but not unlimited funds because we are spending more than we take in. She wonders about adding more member benefits that cost money in terms of the long-term outlook. Ana recommends subsidizing at least one member per year.\u00a0 Xan and Mina wonder if AHIP applicants can apply the professional development award money to AHIP fees.\u00a0 Amy encouraged the chapter look at supporting AHIP applicants through mentorship. Ana noted that service at the local chapter level is also a requirement for AHIP.<\/p>\n

Action item<\/span>:\u00a0<\/strong> Discuss with Claire Sharifi if offering in Professional Development Grant would be appropriate. Vote next meeting.<\/p>\n

5. Joint Conference Chairs \u2013 Carmen Huddleston<\/strong><\/p>\n

\n\u2022 Chair: Chezire Aclimandos
\n\u2022 Co-Chair: Shannon Meaney
\n\u2022 Co-Chair: Claire Sharifi
\nCarmen asked the Executive Board to vote to approve the Chairs and Co-Chairs for the 2016 Joint Meeting. There was unanimous approval from the Executive Board.
