Summer Quarterly News Update

Hello!

I hope that you have had a successful start to the year!  


This is such a crazy time of year for everyone … OK, seriously, there are so many crazy times of the year for us trying to help students! Please remember to always take care of yourself first, so that you have energy to give to others.

 

There is EXCITING news in our division. We have a new toolkit available! There is information for multiple levels, resources to "take and use," and it will be expandable over the next few years. Our membership has asked for resources, and we feel like this is a solid start.
