Talk:New chapter materials

needs:

1) update new chapter toolkit and where chapters can expand on new chapter toolkit and put in their best practices, ie 'the san francisco model'

2) develop short 1-2 pdf of general info (jesse taggert will design)

action items:

1) assemble working group to focus on updating/developing these materials: nathaniel (editing only - minimal commitment), Travis, Shannon, Jade ---> loop in with welcome committee (jesse chan-norris, kara, tim, bob mason, dave fisher)

a) for new chapters: instead of 'join us' form on AF website, it takes you to a form. Instead, we should provide them with all of the information ahead of time, and if they're still interested, they can get in touch to start a chapter.

b) idea: develop an "awesome nursery" (mailing list of people who want to start a chapter)

c) series of short welcome videos on how to start a chapter

2) start establishing sister cities between new chapters and older more established chapters (to serve as mentors) - welcome committee to email main AF mailing list and connect volunteers
