\n 
\nSEAC meetings utilize the Leading by Convening process developed by the IDEA Partnership. As we discuss agenda items\, the following questions are considered:
\n1. Who cares about this issue and why?
\n2. What work is already underway?
\n3. What shared work can inform and unite us?
\n4. How can we deepen our connection?
\n 
\nIf the remote connection (via Zoom) is lost due to connectivity issues or temporarily halted due to procedures to block an attempted Zoom bombing\, the meeting will be recessed for up to 20 minutes to restore communication. Individuals attending the meeting are asked to attempt to rejoin the meeting using the same meeting link. If the meeting is unable to reconvene within 20 minutes\, the meeting will be automatically terminated.
\n 
\nIf you have trouble entering the meeting\, please contact Susan Rocco or Amanda Kaahanui at (808) 586-8126.
