Good morning, NCL Board, Our May members meeting is coming up on Thursday, May 20. I have invited OCTAE staff to attend, as they usually do. I'm looking for suggestions for other discussion topics and guest speakers. One idea I have is to invite Moira Lenehan (Senator Reed) and perhaps a couple of Senate HELP cmte staff to attend for a conversation about WIOA. Thoughts on that? I welcome your additional suggestions. Deborah Deborah Kennedy Executive Director http://www.national-coalition-literacy.org/

I think that's a genius idea! Also - inviting Rep Bobby Scott's Ed & Labor committee staffer (Katie McLelland https://www.linkedin.com/in/kemcclelland1) could be great as well.

Since it's Zoom - I don't think anyone will mind a 3 hour meeting (including a break) instead of a 6 hour meeting...

Would you be interested in updating/talking about the Emergency Broadband Benefit? It's open for enrollment on the 12th.

I agree these are really good ideas. What do you think about Margaret Patterson giving an update on the work of E-BAES. Quite a bit has happened and it might be of interest to other members.
