She has had deficits in the past but has really done a yeoman's job in pulling herself out it through a lot of faithful work in contacting people. I am proud of this effort. While this is the case for her thatshe is stable, I would love to see her receive even more.

Strategic Role: The Senior Staff worker plays a critical leadership role regionally and/or nationally to help build healthy, ethnically diverse witnessing chapters or staff teams Yes

Please describe as it relates to their present and future involvement

Jasmin Rouse has the most amazing city wide planting vision. She is adding new schools all the time. She has moved the work from University of Pittsburgh to Carnegie Mellon to Dusquene to Carlow. We want to BCM in every nook and cranny of the city and I believe she will do this with grace from God. She is on track to interviewing and possibly being promoted to an Associate Area Director

What role (if any) does this staff play in chapter building or chapter planting?

What plan or strategy is being implemented regionally to assist this applicant in addressing their fundraising difficulties?

We have good coaching and matching grants in place. We have a city wide plan to raise funds and networks across the city created by Dabney Robinson.

Additional comments or questions

It is my deep desire that Jasmin start her journey as an Associate AD well. I would love to give her a good size salary jump that sets her up well so she can do some good city wide fund development while having a buffer. It would be wonderful if I could pay her at about 4000-4200 at a level 8. That would mean bringing in about 12-15000 more a year which she could use some assistance on. Thank you for considering this.
