Comments from the JJ Summit

  • Training and Research Committee Comments:

    Believe actions to move toward local trainings is a good idea
  • Great.
  • Having had a child go through the system years ago, I definitely felt the lack of "parent inclusiveness". Although it appears your Dept. is moving in a better direction overall. I would be glad to discuss this topic at length although I am not a member of your Department.
  • I am very much in favor of having a direction for trainings and the 3 year plan sets out some important areas that need to be addressed in Idaho. The themes for each of the next 3 years are broad enough to give a good deal of scope and latitude for any entity planning training in the next 3 years.
  • I appreciate the hard work and leadership each of the committee members provided. I think there should have been more time to discuss because those ideas, comments, concerns as participants may not have written them down to give as input at a later time, like me! We'll work through whatever comes up. Still a very good direction to go.
  • I do not like the proposal to no longer have the training dollars at the local level. I realize that they have been significantly under spent, but I believe each local council could have been charged with identifying training needs and spending funds.
  • I think the training will take some work but will provide great opportunities for the district councils. Research will be a bigger challenge to pull off.
  • It was 30 minutes to long.
  • Like it. Should make training more consistent statewide.
  • Must have a mechanism to let Council's know results of training opportunities so they can advertise and promote the most successful ones.
  • Ok
  • This excites me. Again, it will be time and work intensive but worth it in the end.
