All NOFC members are invited to attend a session with our consultant, Mark Goehring of CDS consulting, this SATURDAY MARCH 6 at 10:00AM to Noon at the New Orleans Healing Center.

The first half hour of this session will be a discussion with Mark about the role of the board in our organization. The rest of our time will be a board meeting.

This is a great opportunity for anyone who has questions about the board to come and ask the expert as well as board members about our role in the organization and the process for our work. Also, the board still has two vacant positions, so anyone who is interested in joining the board in our work toward opening the NOFC storefront should come see what it’s all about.
