FREE Movie Night: "The Anonymous People"

Hello Linda ,     Welcome to November! Sorry to be cliche but it is a great time to remember to think of what you're grateful for.  Sometimes it's the little things. The other day, the top row of my keyboard wasn't working and I couldn't spell words with letters using "e" or "i". I never thought about those letters before I couldn't use them. What are some things you're grateful for? Thanksgiving is also a reminder of eating dinner with family and friends. In the Health Promotion world, this is called a protective factor for youth - something that helps insulate a child from making potentially unhealthy decisions. When you're doing something as simple as cooking dinner together, you could be talking about what's going on at school or future plans. What a great opportunity to process information and generate new ideas.  I hope you have a Happy Thanksgiving! Please join us before then of course, for our RCC meeting. Because I am also grateful for all of you who are engaged with RCC and with your community! Now that we have a tentative plan, it's time to start making some more great things happen in the community!    Agenda for November 12, 2014 for Rainier Community Cares Free Dinner served   5:30 pm at Rainier Emergency Food Bank Welcome; Introductions Key Speaker: Belinda Montgomery Director of Yelm SeaMar Clinic Old Business: Present Action Plan and month by month calendar for year  Updates on Say it Straight and After-School Programming  Report out on "The Anonymous People" Movie Update on Youth Mental Health First Aid  Update on Community Campaign  Update on Annual Community Survey  Membership and Leadership  New Business: Pick committees and project workgroups for the year Talk about Business Night Out for December and Potluck Celebrate Volunteers Wrap up/ Announcements Adjourn Bonus: At 6:30, an optional 2nd showing of "The Anonymous People"    See you soon, Juliette  Last month's meeting notes can be accessed   here.     Mark your calendar: The regular coalition meetings are the second Wednesday of each month at 5:30 p.m.   Rainier Community Cares: Working together to create positive opportunities and enhance community pride while promoting an alcohol - and drug-free environment for youth.  Documentary playing in Rainier  November 10th and 12th!        "Recovery is OUT - to change the addiction conversation from problems to SOLUTIONS.
