It's back!  AL!VE is pleased to partner again with Better Impact to provide another professional development opportunity.  A hybrid conference means the presenters come to you via live streaming.  You meet locally with your colleagues and interact virtually with the presenters.

Mark your calendar for the week of September 12.  This year's Hybrid Conference will be streamed from the Orlando, Florida area on September 12 & 13  (one day each for Eastern/Central and Mountain/Pacific time zones).  We will have more information soon!

Our thanks to the many contributions of two of our board members who are leaving the board. 


Paula Pratt served a three year term and chaired the membership committee. 




Kathy Cahill served six years on the board and was President for two years, served on the marketing committee and created and managed our social media. 

If you are interested in serving on the board to build or share your skills, contact Beth Whitmire, Board President
