Members of O.U.C.H. and the people who visit this site are our best resources. Each problem we as a group face have people who already found solutions or work in a field that can provide us with valuable information relating to the problem. We want to find those people and deposit them in our "talent bank" or "experts bank". We need them to provide us with information that relates to the problem based on their own experience. Resource people, that we can "withdraw" from the bank when a specific need arises
Our committee has been struggling with how to handle this information. We would like to see it set up in the same spirit of resource and cooperation as the doctors referral page. We would like to see resource people listed under categories like Insurance, disability, employment problems, o2 etc. etc We know that setting up a page like that is no small task and we dont want to presume this can simply happen. So we need some ideas.
Also, please consider being part of our talent bank program. We want to create a "Liaison" between the sufferer/supporter who is seeking out answers and the sufferer/supporter who has "been there done that" For now, you can email tireguy@kdsi.net to give us your talent bank information. We will continue to track this information until we find a more permanent home for it. On behalf of the Liaison Committee members, thank you
Steve Van Rees
