Johnston) Rachel Johnston informed the Committee that Judy Woods, as a representative of the Human Services Roundtable, has been asked to obtain input on the Roundtable's 1992 legislative agenda. Ms. Johnston summarized the five key items of concern: housing, family support and family violence, children's issues, employability, and health care. She highlighted the tier one items of each group; those items which will receive the greatest amount of Roundtable time and effort. The Roundtable will vote at their November 20 meeting to implement the action plan. She also provided new information just received from the Roundtable regarding standard and mutual protection orders and voluntary training available for police and law enforcement officials relating to the domestic violence bill. The Roundtable and other advocates are trying to take more of a regional approach and be more conservative when it comes to fiscal plans, especially with child care issues. Chair Jon Johnson asked if it would be helpful when the next legislative session convenes for the City to pass a resolution urging the adoption of the rest of the Roundtable's recommendations. Council President Woods responded it would be helpful especially in the area of housing and domestic violence.
