Meeting with adoptive parent org, need advice
Hello! Some advice would be appreciated. I'm (24F) currently running an independent community for Filipino adoptees in hopes to officialize it in the furture since there is a lack of adoptee centered orgs where I live.
I will be meeting a sub organization under our city's alternative childcare services mostly run by adoptive parents. This won't be too formal of a meet but it just feels like a big deal and I worry, knowing myself, how I'd ramble sometimes. I want to be direct just as much as possible and just try to see if we'll be in any alignment to help adoptees in our area.
If the opposite happens, any advice would be appreciated, how do people run organizations independently? And how can you communicate better with organizations with potentially different values?
