Research, set up, and support the preparation of member-facing communications (e.g., social media tools, podcasts) in addition to the existing methods (e.g., emails, newsletter).
Assisting with member-focused events, e.g. Annual Serventy Lecture, April 22nd and or other member participation activities.
