[Viva] Email from PWN

[Kath Webster]

I'm glad to hear that Viva is considering PWN's request to meet and simply
"share information" (see emails below).  Viva and Positive Women's Network
are both important supports to me. 

 

Also, I was recently asked who is currently on the VIVA working group and I
wasn't exactly sure.  Could you please share that on the list serve for
others who may not know? 

 

With gratitude, Kath

Hello Friends

This note is being sent out from the VIVA working group in order to give the
membership an opportunity to give feedback regarding a letter sent to VIVA
from Marcie Summers of PWN . You will find a copy of this letter attached. 

 

The members of the working group have varied feelings about the letter from
PWN and about what is being asked of us. We are bringing this letter to you,
the membership, so that everyone can be heard on this issue. Some of what we
are hoping to learn from all of you is how you feel about the letter's
content and request, what action you would like to see happen...if any and
concrete ideas or questions you might want addressed. 

We want to hear all opinions, thoughts and concerns, so please send them in.
In order to encourage all to speak freely, your reply to this e-mail will be
going to our vivawomen at gmail.com account, which will be viewed by the
working group only. We are asking that you reply within 48 hours. 

To any ViVA women who also want to have an open discussion about this
subject on our listserv, please feel free to reply to viva at lists.resist.ca
as well.

 
Your Working Group



 

 

Hi Viva Women:

 

Several PWN staff heard Tami speak in Toronto at the Women's Ancillary event
pre-CAHR and also ran into some of the members at the recent retirement
party for Dr. Burdge and Dr. Forbes.  Connecting with VIVA women at these
events made us think it would be good to invite VIVA to meet with the PWN
staff.  We often have folks in the community come in to share their work and
as both PWN & VIVA work closely with positive women, we thought it would be
useful to get together. 

 

We'd like to invite one or two of your members to attend a PWN staff
meeting, (for the purpose of information sharing).  Please let me know if
any of these possible dates will work:  

 

Wednesday, May 18 @ 10:30 a.m.

Wednesday, June 8 @ 10:30 a.m.

Wednesday, June 22 @ 10:30 a.m.

 

I look forward to hearing from you regarding this potential meeting.

 

Thanks,
