will be doing this same project and is looking to find out more about how Becca did this in Yamhill County. Recruited youth through schools and compliance checks office and the cadet programs. She provided a pretty complete picture of the orientation process. Yamhill County will be using the results from the environmental scans as a base to expand our understanding and combining this information with student use data, school information, and youth focus groups. Workforce Policy Development (Julie Hynes): Last month we had a conversation around the new OARs related to workplace policy development. Each of our programs must come up with a policy on this. Lisa Miller, Becca Heuser and Julie Hynes are going to be meeting and developing a template policy. They had their first meeting on Wednesday October 30, 2013. A policy could fit into DFW workplace, protected health information, HIPPA and for programs we can just add simple language, but the groups want to go broader and develop county-wide. Looking at areas like using computers for personal gain to also include PG language, Drug Free Workplace policies are a place we could develop language for. They will develop a few levels of language recommendations: program, department and countywide policy. They plan on meeting a few more times, and are getting information from other states to look at in addition to the Oregon scan of policies. PGAW Calendar Distribution: Please respond to email requesting information about how many calendars you county wants and AMH staff will ship them out soon.

Next meeting December 6, 2013 10:00am-11:30am 1-877-336-1828 Code: 90776
