Our club is planning to undertake is a community needs assessment.  This project will be done jointly with the noon  Wilmette  Rotary Club.  The plan is to interview key people in the community to get their perspective on community needs that are not being met.  It is hoped that we will uncover some needs and can develop a joint service project with the noon club to address those needs.
 
The  community leaders or organizations we plan to contact include:
 
The Wilmette Village Manager
The head people in the two school systems
The Park District Director
The League of Women Voters
The Wilmette-Kenilworth Chamber of  Commerce
North Shore University Health System
The  Wilmette Police Chief
The  Family Service Center
New Trier Township
Possibly religious leaders representing all denominations
 
There are two questions for members that we need  your input on:
 
1.  Are there any other key people that would provide helpful input, not on the list?
 
2. We hope to interview people from these organizations (one from our club and one from the noon club).  Do you have an interest in conducting any of the needs assessment interviews?
 
Please let Corinne McClintic or Jim Pockross know.
