January 17, 1990 C`""' "1 SUBJECT; AUTHORIZE .FACILITY PAYMENT FOR ACEESW IN-SERVICE TRAINING/PLANNING SESSION SPECIFIC REQUEST(S) OR RECOMMENDATION(S) & BACK1ROUND AND JUSTIFICATION I. RECOMMENDED ACTION: AUTHORIZE payment to rent facilities for planned February 23-25 off-site weekend work session for leadership development training and strategic planning session for 22 member County Advisory Committee on the Employment and Economic Status of Women (ACEESW) . II. FINANCIAL IMPACT: $1500; funds are budgeted and fifty percent of the cost is chargeable to federal grant funds. III. REASONS FOR RECOMMENDATION/BACKGROUND: At their 16 January meeting, the County ACEESW concluded that the membership would greatly benefit from a leadership development training session. They also identified the need for an in-depth strategic planning session. Due to work commitments, for the majority of the membership to be able to attend, the session would have to be on a weekend. In addition, due to election of new officers at the 16 January meeting, it was determined that the benefit would be maximized if this session were held in February. San Damiano and Westminister retreat houses, both located in Contra Costa County and normally utilized by the County for these types of sessions, are both already reserved for all. weekends during the months of February and March. Willows, a Napa facility specializing in Women's groups, is available the February 23-25 weekend. It has a communal kitchen and the .ACEESW members will assume full responsibility for their own meals. The ACEESW has secured the services of a consultant who has agreed to volunteer her time to serve as a group leader/facilitator. The average cost of $85 per participant is very cost effective; below the rate that would be required to pay registration and meal expenses for the attendance of a comparable two day training session on a commuter basis.
