Forum Purpose and Overview

SSB Community Partners + SSB Staff Forums were created as a safe and accessible way for SSB and our partners to have consistent communication opportunities. They are a means for SSB staff and Community Partners to hear from SSB leadership about important updates and allow opportunities for discussion and questions. Additionally, the forums are an opportunity for SSB staff and our Community Partners to connect and engage with each other, fostering stronger working relationships.

SSB leadership and SSB Contracts Team staff plan and lead the forums. Speakers may be pulled in from all areas of our program or other state agencies to address specific topics.

Any and all SSB Community Partner staff and SSB Staff are encouraged to attend.

SSB Community Partners + SSB Staff Forums are recurring meetings held quarterly.
