Four times per year, representatives from VTA meet with other leaders from our area to discuss the issues and challenges faced by our neighbors and that group is called the Redwood Service Center Council.   Your representatives met on Saturday and, In the documents above, you will find the reports from that meeting.

First, you will find reports from John Haschak, the chair of Redwood, and Jerry Eaton, your CTA director.  You will also find a report from Alyson Brauning on various laws in California regarding GLBT issues.

The last two pages of the report are lists of the various conferences available to you over the course of the year and a scholarship application which you may fill out in order to attain funding.

If you have questions on any of these documents, or anything else with the Redwood Service Center Council, please contact Moira, Alyson, Julie or Corey.
