Happy Spring!!
It is always so joyful to watch the new growth and the magical colors of spring. It brings a renewed awareness of how magical nature is and how fortunate we are to enjoy it. Speaking of new growth, a few changes have occurred in our team as Ashley, our operations manager, is now out on maternity leave. We anxiously await another little one to our organization and are excited for Ashley and her family. Sofie Schwartz is filling in for Ashley while she is out so you may interface with her. We are so grateful to have Sofie.
Hopefully you noted some changes on the calendar this month. Our next Networking will be May 5th, and, our next Community Conversation is May 16th. Also, we are not doing the Case Review this month and the next one will be July 14th. We look forward to seeing you at those events.

Robin and I look forward to attending and speaking at ICOPA (The International Conference on Patient Advocacy) in Chicago on April 28-30. It should be a great conference and we are excited to see many colleagues we have not seen in a long time. We have been working closely with other health care and patient advocacy organizations to further the field and there will be more information at the conference.

Although we have had a reprieve from Covid-19 and are able to be outside more, we are still encouraging our communities to stay safe, wear masks when in high density areas and be vigilant about taking care of yourselves and your loved ones. For those of you who can get the second booster, make an appointment.
