I went to a meeting on Wednesday about the possibility of rotating homeless shelter in Isabella county. There were some pretty interesting things being discussed about during the meeting. A large part of the meeting talked about intake and being screened and all those things before being taken in and then being driven to the homeless shelter. I didn't really realize all the things that had to be taken care of before even being taken in, as well as all the things that they can't take in to the shelter and even the issue of having to supervise them for smoke breaks to make sure they don't sneak things inside. I thought the whole meeting was pretty interesting and they did a good job showing the need, in my eye, of a homeless shelter in Isabella county.
Also while I was there I thought of a couple things we could do with the social media for ICRH. I thought it would be great if we could get the churches involved to try and build an initial audience for the page. There are a couple ways that they could do that. One of the easiest ways is for the churches page and the ICRH page to communicate back and forth with one another and kind of for lack of a better term, give each other shout outs and discuss the good of each others pages. The only issue that you would have to be careful about in those terms is basically idk, converting or preaching on the ICRH page, because there will be people of different faiths and religious backgrounds on that page.
Another good way the churches can get involved with the page is for the churches to share events going on with the ICRH page and if individuals of the church like the page and share the events or blog posts etc. of the site, there is the possibility of a decent following of the site.
Those were a couple things I was thinking about during the meeting and will continue to ponder on the idea of growing the social media page to gain a larger following.
