SOAR Online Course Cohort Timeline-Maine October 2018

Hello everyone!

I am reaching out based on your interest in getting involved with SOAR (SSI/SSDI Outreach, Access and Recovery) in Maine! As you know, Ashley has moved on to a new position, but we are still working hard to get SOAR strongly established in Maine.  In the meantime, the SAMHSA SOAR TA Center will be facilitating a virtual SOAR Online Course cohort. What that means is that anyone who is interested will register for the SOAR Online Course and I will hold weekly virtual calls using Adobe Connect in order to check-in on your progress and answer any questions you have.

Please let me know by September 27 if you are interested in participating in the cohort and I will make sure that you are added to all of the calendar appointments.  I have attached the cohort timeline which has some additional information about how it will work and how to register.

We will hold weekly check-in calls on October 4, 11, and 18 from 3:00-4:00pm ET.

Do not hesitate to reach out to me with any questions you have.

Also, feel free to forward this message to anyone else that you think would be interested in participating.

Looking forward to getting to know you all!

Take care,

Kristin

There still an appeal in process that will change the score of one project, and therefore impact where it lands on the ranking chart. The final Project Ranking will be posted once the appeal is resolved.

This DRAFT is for discussion purposes at the meeting today.
