New England Chapter
Summer 2018 
Dear YANA-New Englanders,

Happy Summer!

Please see below for a great fall event offered through YaleWomen. If you have a YANA event you would like to see in your area, please let us know.

In the meantime, we thought we would use this edition to be sure you are well connected with some wonderful resources and opportunities from our beloved Yale.

Keep up the good work!
