Information Insights is working with staff of the McDowell Group to design and implement a public input process to inform communities and other stakeholders about the Alaska Marine Highway System Analysis project and to solicit public input on service option alternatives for analysis. Public outreach initiatives include regional presentations to stakeholder groups, special presentations to the Marine Transportation Advisory Board (MTAB), a household survey, and public comment website.

The Lost Alaskans: Morningside Hospital History Project has received the Alaska Historical Society‘s 2011 Pathfinder Award. According to the Society’s website:
The Pathfinder Award is given to an individual or several individuals who have indexed or prepared guides to Alaska historical material that has not been accessible. The 2011 Pathfinder award goes to the Lost Alaskans: Morningside Hospital History Project, and its primary researchers Ellen Ganley, Meg Greene, Karen Perdue, Robin Renfroe, Niejse Steinkruger, Sally Mead, Deborah Smith, Marylou Elton, and Vivian Hamilton. This group has worked to uncover the documentary record of mental health care during the years in which Alaskans were institutionalized out of state at Morningside Hospital. Their work not only helps reveal the past, but has had an impact on the lives of living family members seeking to understand what happened to their relatives.
Mary Pruitt is an administrative intern who works with the administrative support team, helps with accounting document retention review and scanning, and provides project support as needed. She has been working with Information Insights since August 2010. Recently, she has been involved with projects involving ALPHA, AMHTA, and ATCA.
She is a student at Monroe High School, and is involved with the football program, NHS, Leo’s Club, and Student Government. She also works as a student tutor. She hopes to major in business management in college.
Two members of Information Insights facilitation team, Brenda and Jess Holden, pitched their tent at the Girl Scout Encampment last week. Jess worked with girls to explore the idea of voice in leadership and community, whether it is a troop, schools, or towns. She facilitated activities and conversation to explore ways girls want to contribute their voice in Girl Scouting and what that might look like. Brenda worked with a cross section of adult volunteers simultaneously to explore how Girl Scouts might improve volunteer support as well as gather ideas from adult volunteers on how the Council could shape the future state of the democratic voice of volunteers in the Alaska Council.
