Meeting Materials
Various materials will be distributed in each of the monthly Local Readiness Team Lead (LRTL) meetings. Each meeting will include, at the very least, a PowerPoint presentation. Other items may be things such as checklists, communications, or schedules.
You can also find the presentation from our summer 2007 From CUFS to Café event here.
Downloaded PDFs can be opened with Adobe Reader.
If you don't have Microsoft Office installed, you can download a free PowerPoint viewer.
Note: LRTL meetings from February through May 2008 consisted of Transition Workshop content. Materials from those meetings are located on our Transition Workshop Materials page.
