Grievances Chairman King took this opportunity to express his thoughts on the charge of the group. He stated the three projects now under way are good and important, but he felt that the group's main focus is on grievance resolution. Oberdorfer then mentioned some things which might be helpful: Organizing by type of grievance. How many cases were handled by the state, and organize by type. How many were taken on by the commission--the outcome and organize by type. Oberdorfer also brought some pamphlets which could be distributed and stamped with the number to call if one has a grievance. This, she said, may increase the case load. King then asked for updates on grievances. Both cases were solved. King has a new case, and will work on it with Litsheim. Three grievances were noted: two disability and one age.
