From the Board

Good morning, CaSA Chapter!    Please check out the great things our volunteers are planning for you in the “Save the Date” section. Due to the dynamic nature of our current environment, we have opted to hold Quarterly Planning Sessions to keep you more informed and involved in Chapter events.  Please do not hesitate to send a few lines to info@ispecasa.org at any time with ideas or questions you may have, to enquire about a more active role in volunteer service to our members, or to specifically ask for support for your site from one of the many experts in our Chapter!
