[Stephanie Perrin]

Hello all,
Attached is the agenda for the first meeting of the HLMC, which will be held Monday the 24th.  I have no other information about the meeting, but will be participating remotely, along with several others.  This is a short meeting, but I will report back with a brief summary, following Marilia’s excellent model. 
Any advice/comments you would like to pass along to me would be gratefully received. 
Kind regards, Stephanie Perrin
NCUC
