Background to the FBI initiative
Membership goals? Changes in membership trends? Percent of chartered organizations in faith based organizations? Changes in board leadership?
Was there an “aha” moment?

Talk specifically about the Board retreat (when did this happen?) and how the new Strategic Alliances staff position came about.
For other councils that are listening, what pieces need to be in place for them to consider a similar plan to target faith based organizations?
