Welcome & introductions

No one needs to be introduced. Everyone was impressed with the youth from last time.

Force Field Analysis: Bringing the George and Nathan Show to the Schools
+ Driving Forces	- Restraining Forces
#1 Presentation ready	#1 George & Nathan need more time
#2 Teen participation in Committee	#1 Depend too much on Geo. & Nathan
#3 Dr. Reents support	#2 Don't know about Logan, SJ, House
Credible presenters	#3 Waiting for Supers to set up inservice
Team Support	Not much parental support for having in the schools
Media Support	Powerless school boards
We are just goog	Packed agenda..school board?
Positive word is out on core team	Parents might not want this?

(Remember, reinforcing positives can backfire. Eliminating constraining influences often works the best.)

Get some help for Geo. and Nathan in getting things set up.
Need to consider someone else who can be in the wings to step in in case George or Nathan cannot make the date.

SMyouth: "Seeing it in real life affects us more than seeing it in the media."

Do survey that the students have put together and perhaps do this activity again with information from that to begin to address the idea that "Everyone is doing it".
George and Nathan Show can help address the perception that Substance use can be gotten away with.

Nathan: will find and train another officer to do the Show.
George: ID a substitute for the Show
Set up inservice opportunities to do the Show:
- Noreen: House
- Dee: Logan
- Alan: San Jon
- Jay: Dr. Reents
Students: complete the Survey and administer. Report back in one month
RAyouth: Talk to Mr. Salazar about having Teen Leaders trained.
