Council Member Aviles questions MOIA representatives about agency feedback on sanctuary law trainings and the expectations for implementing these trainings across city agencies. The discussion reveals that while specific feedback is confidential, MOIA is prioritizing the training of agencies and front-facing staff.

  • MOIA cannot share specific agency feedback due to confidentiality
  • There's a focus on training agencies quickly, but no set date is provided
  • The administration is pushing for all staff to receive training on the law

In terms of, in terms of the trainings, is there a, do agencies provide feedback on the training?
1:20:32
They did.
1:20:33
And what kind of feedback have they offered?
Lorena Lucero
1:20:35
I can't get into that because the substance of what was discussed is privileged and confidential.
Alexa Aviles
1:20:40
Okay.
1:20:41
I think what we are prodding for is, obviously, feedback and how that is incorporated and understanding, to make sure that we are fully responding to the feedback.
1:20:52
In terms of the guidance that is provided, obviously, this is a train the trainer model.
1:20:57

Alexa Aviles
1:21:19
No.
1:21:20
I don't want a set date.
1:21:21
Yeah.
1:21:22
I I wanna understand that by a certain date, we are pushing full throttle that all of our staffs have received some touch point around the law because what we are seeing currently is they have no idea.
Lorena Lucero
1:21:39
What I mean, chair, a 100%.

We have been laser focused on on on training agencies.
1:21:46
This is, like, a top priority for us.

We could have done it yesterday.
