Roseville Human Rights, Inclusion and Engagement <br />Commission <br /> <br />Agenda Item <br />DATE:June 7, 2018 ITEM: 7a <br />ITEM DESCRIPTION: Discuss Engagement Approach (Foundational & Outreach) <br /> <br />Background <br /> <br />Over the past several months, the Human Rights, Inclusion and Engagement Commission has <br />been reviewing the direction provided by the City Council at the joint meeting on March 26, <br />2018. <br /> <br />At the May 16, 2018 HRIEC meeting, the Commission discussed taking a two-prong approach to <br />the directive by the City Council. These two approaches consisted, very broadly, of: <br /> <br />1.Developing a Foundation for outreach/engagement/public participation (for city <br />initiatives/projects)focused on: <br /> Best practices, tools, techniques,methods for public participation <br /> Understanding of current and future demographics <br /> Previous experiences at the city level <br /> Understanding of objectives and outcomes <br /> <br />2.Outreach within the Community in order to bring the community’s voice to the table: <br /> Engagement of historically under-represented/marginalized communities <br /> Identifying community leaders, establishing relationships <br /> Methods to gather feedback/insight from these communities <br />As part of this two-prong approach, the Commission wanted to pull together information that <br />outlines these ideas and approaches they could share with the City Council in order to find out <br />if this approach was the direction the Council saw as appropriate. Attached are documents that <br />provide more background of how these two approaches would look with more detail. The first <br />document outlines the Foundational approach. The second document outlines the Outreach <br />approach. Also attached are the minutes from the joint meeting with the City Council. <br />The Commission is currently scheduled to present this information to the City Council at the <br />July 9, 2018 meeting. <br />1 <br /> <br />
