Hello SWAN Board:

I met with Anne Slaughter today to discuss this upcoming meeting in further detail. Additionally, documentation was provided to me, which I have attached to the email. I combined the docs into an AM session and PM session packet, but if you’d like them broken down I do have them in individual format as well.

During our meeting, Anne did stress to me that the LLSAP definition changes are relatively minor, which you can see in the documentation. She noted that any other changes will only begin preliminary discussions at the PM session, but this would be a collaborative debate between all affected parties. Additionally, she noted that if anything does change with regard to RAILS support to LLSAPs in the future, it would be a change from in kind to direct financial support (i.e. if services were no longer offered, financial support would be given instead).

Anne invites you to email her or call her if you have any specific questions. If you would like to attend and have not already contacted me (or would like to no longer attend), please let me know ASAP so that I can update L2.

Thanks!
