March 2012
Welcome Spring! Time sure flies when we don’t have the
winter blues. I hope you are all planning on attending our annual
conference on March 31, 2012 at the Crowne Plaza in Warwick.
We are excited about our topics and speakers and hope you will
join us. There is still time so don’t delay. You may register
online or by mail. Onsite registrations will be allowed if space
allows. Come network with colleagues, take chances on our wonderful
raffle items, baskets and the terrific 50/50 raffle. Enjoy breakfast,
snacks and lunch all included in one fee and earn ASHA CEUs.
Hope to see you there!
Please plan on joining us for our annual Better Hearing and
Speech Month display at the RI State House on May
1, 2012. We
will have our biggest and best display yet this year and encourage
your participation. If you would like to have a table for a display
please contact our office manager or me directly as soon as possible.
Please feel free to join us!
RISHA continues to work with officials at the RI Department
of Education regarding certification and the support professional
evaluation document. Please stay tuned for upcoming news in the
2012 RISHA conference booklet and in the new RISHA newsletter.
Please feel free to share your comments and concerns.
We encourage your continued support and participation. We’d
love to have you join a committee, attend a board meeting and
become more involved. Your comments and suggestions are always
welcome. The Executive Board will be busy planning our fall meetings
and events, as well as updating and posting our revised Strategic
Plan. Look for dates and events to be posted.
We are RISHA and we appreciate and need your continued collaboration
and support!!
Hope to see you on March 31 and on May
1!!!
Ellen Connery
RISHA President
