How to make a motion?
At KFTF Online, we want members to always be heard. We have created a form that can be submitted to kftfonline@gmail.com. Motions can be made to change guidelines or to have an informed group discussion before making a motion.
The group conscience reviews and discusses these motions thoroughly to arrive at a well-informed group conscience through voting on these motions.
These decisions become part of the collective conscience of our home group, KFTF Online (Tradition 2).
Below is the format for making a motion or informed discuss item, we will be setting up a link to the form shortly.
