DignityUSA's board of directors met in sunny Orlando, Florida, February 23-25th. Highlights of the meeting include: -Reviewing the reports from the first segment of Jubilee conversations, “Recalling Our Roots," and feeling awestruck by the strength, love and resilience evident in our movement’s history. -Welcoming DignityUSA's newest board member, Patrick Journet, of Dignity Pittsburgh. -Discussing plans for the upcoming Young Adult retreat, and ways that DignityUSA can continue to engage the young adults in our mission. -Reviewing a proposal by the chairs of our marketing, development, chapter services, and membership committees, calling for closer collaboration as DignityUSA works to engage current members and attract new members. -Reporting on and discussing finances, our strategic plan, development, and the 2019 conference in Chicago. -Celebrating liturgy and sharing a meal with the local Dignity community, the St. Dorothy Catholic Community, which evolved from Dignity/Orlando. At the end of their time together, the Board left Orlando energized and committed to supporting DignityUSA's members, advancing LGBTQI justice, and growing our financial base so that DignityUSA can do even more work for advocacy and inclusion of LGBTQI community in our Church and world.
