Several years ago we decided to form an advisory board. We felt it would be a good vehicle for advice, input, and suggestions from our community. We have attempted to make the composition of the board as 
representative of our audience as possible. The board includes teachers, veterans, religious leaders, community activists. We bring the board together once a year. We review what we've accomplished; listen to their input and advice. This year we decided to open the meeting to the general public.
Following is a list of highlights from the meeting:
- Reformulate our message to be more 'pro-peace' and less 'anti-war'.
- Consider forming a student advisory board for our zine.
- More systematic outreach to other groups in our community. Possibly each person 'adopt' one or more organization(s) and make a point of keeping up with the group(s).
- Get the media on our side for everything we do. Find an ally in the media and keep that person informed.
- Use social media and other contemporary media (e.g. texting) to reach the students.
- Create a blog on our website to report on our experiences at the schools. Allow (monitored) input from the students.
