One of the FCRC Chairs had a good idea. She recommended that SCs mention the
FCRC as an option for members seeking services when they are unavailable (ie on
your voicemail and on your white board when you are out of the office). I
believe this would be a good way to remind members of their own peer to peer
assistance options and foster a working relationship between the co-op and the
SC. Please note this isn’t a requirement, but it is something to consider.

FCRC as Resource
Posting your AASC Online Agency List
AASC Online tip of the day!:
You have the resources your residents/members need at your fingertips. In the upper right-hand corner of your AASC Online Resource Director is the option to Print Agency List. Do it! Then post it on your bulletin board and share it with your residents/members. CSI SCs should bring their FCRC Chairs updates of the Agency list at their monthly meetings for the FCRC Chair to put in their resource binder…..and let your auditor know that you have done this and where the FCRC binder is located. The idea is knowledge is power! Some residents/members would prefer to check out your resource list on their own terms during non-office hours, so make it available. Thanks!
FCRC Certification
Save the Date:
CSI requires all of their FCRC committee members to participate in their fall FCRC Certification training annually. We are requiring all of our our CSI SCs to also recertify annually. It is a good way to maintain continuity with their procedures and assuring that the SC Program enhances, but doesn’t undermine, their FCRC system.
The fall trainings are on Friday, September 21st, 10am-2:30pm at Riverview Co-op or Monday, September 24th, 10am-2:30pm, at New Horizons Co-op. Sharon Bolden, Education Coordinator, is sending out the training invitations and the SCs are required to RSVP to her with which training they are choosing to attend. I have not yet figured out how Laura and Karen will participate, but I hope to arrange with Washington Square for them to take their van along with the FCRC members from their co-op who will be driving out for the training.
