District News
What's
going on within Communities for Decency?
Here
is a brief report of a few of the exciting things happening
in some of the districts throughout our organization!
District
#3
Our
district has been invited to meet with some local clergy
members bi-monthly to keep them updated on Communities
for Decency efforts. They are delighted with our
new web site.
District
#6
We
have done some presenting in local meetings and signed
up some new members. We have also participated as a
district in the CFD action items. We wrote letters
to our local Target about covering their magazines and
e-mailed Channel 4 about their programming.
District
#14
Our
district meets every month except for December. We have
an internet safety education presentation for school-aged
children. We are we working with the PTA and presenting
to some of the schools in our district.
District
#22
We
hold meetings every month except for July, August, and
December. We also send out a neighborhood newsletter
with CFD information such as personal stories of successes
people in our area have had. It is sent to about 200
families in our neighborhood.
We
also have a group working with the schools about teaching
awareness to the children. An article was put in the
elementary school parents' newsletter about establishing
a Family Decency Standard. We are planning to have a
booth at the elementary school safety fair coming up
soon.
Lastly,
we have asked everyone to respond to the CFD action
items and have encouraged our group to thank our Smith's
store for covering its magazines.
District
#24
We
have been invited to send a participant to our local
community pro-family/safety committee. This is a committee
that includes all our local civic and church leaders.
We are excited to coordinate our efforts with others.
District
#25
This year we have been instrumental in helping Logan City pass a model resolution establishing and promoting a child appropriate community standard. We also helped Stand For Decency gather blankets for abused children in their Salt Lake City walk-a-thon. This fall we are monthly offering presentations to the public in the City Hall Building, right by the public library. They will be informative and inspirational and will teach the value of decency and empower individuals with the knowledge and tools to promote decency and create a great community. We will also be monthly e-mailing articles with great ideas on what we each can do to make a difference.
How
to Contact Your District Leader
Communities
for Decency is divided into 29 districts patterned after
the Senatorial Districts of Utah . Each district has
a trained leader who organizes CFD members residing
in each district. As a district, members and leaders
educate their friends and neighbors; resolve local decency
issues; and work with the entire organization to accomplish
state goals.
To
find out which district you belong to, look at the number
on "State Senate" line on your Utah state
voter's registration card; or call your county clerk.
To
further assist you, we have provided a list of the Utah
Senatorial Districts with the current CFD district leaders
and their contact information.
