Outcomes

Governance Charter (version 4.1)

The General Membership voted by acclamation to adopt Governance Charter (version 4.1). The only substantive change was the creation of a designated Board seat for the Louisiana Coalition Against Domestic Violence.

Halloween Costumes and Candy

As part of the CoC’s commitment to high-quality data collection and assessment, attendees were polled about their Halloween costumes and favorite candy. CoC staff have aggregated that data; please find it below.

A surprising number of attendees have chosen to be exhausted for Halloween; CoC staff attribute this choice in part to NOFA season and are reconsidering their own costumes to match

Chocolate-based candies had a predictably strong showing; peanut butter and nuts are also a favorite
