Q:聽 Can a person who is seeking assistance become an Active Conference member?

A:聽 A neighbor served can indeed become an active member of a Conference so long as the requirements for an active member are met; is Catholic, attends meetings regularly, and participates in the activities, works and life of the Conference. All three are important to be an Active Member. If #1 or #2 is missing, they are Associate Members. The Rule, Part III, Statute 3 clearly identifies the membership types. However, experience has shown that it is best for them to join after their personal situation is stabilized/satisfied.

Q: Can you help me explain the reason for the 60-day expiration on the release form we have people we serve sign when providing assistance?

A: The reason for the 60-day expiration on the release form is to assist us with gathering information. The form allows us to learn about the neighbor we are serving. We ask them to sign a release form for information gathering. The form is not designed to retain information gathered forever; it is to be used only for the purpose of assessing the request for assistance needed at the time the request is made.

P: 驴Puede una persona que busca asistencia convertirse en miembro activo de la Conferencia?

R:聽 Un vecino atendido puede convertirse en miembro activo de una Conferencia siempre que cumpla con los requisitos para un miembro activo; es cat贸lico, asiste regularmente a las reuniones y participa en las actividades, trabajos y vida de la Conferencia. Los tres son importantes para ser un miembro activo. Si falta el #1 o el #2, son Miembros Asociados. La Regla, Parte III, Estatuto 3 identifica claramente los tipos de membres铆a. Sin embargo, la experiencia ha demostrado que es mejor para ellos unirse despu茅s de que su situaci贸n personal est茅 estabilizada/satisfecha.

P: 驴Puede ayudarme a explicar el motivo de la caducidad de 60 d铆as en el formulario de autorizaci贸n que las personas a las que servimos firman al brindar asistencia?

R: El motivo del vencimiento de 60 d铆as en el formulario de autorizaci贸n es para ayudarnos a recopilar informaci贸n. El formulario nos permite conocer al pr贸jimo al que estamos sirviendo. Les pedimos que firmen un formulario de divulgaci贸n para la recopilaci贸n de informaci贸n. El formulario no est谩 dise帽ado para retener la informaci贸n recopilada para siempre; se utilizar谩 煤nicamente con el fin de evaluar la solicitud de asistencia necesaria en el momento en que se realiza la solicitud.
