Contact has been made with most of the chapters to develop an email network to disseminate state and national information, encourage action on key issues, and provide a vehicle for chapters to contact the board about their policy concerns. To date, meetings have been held with the New Haven, Hartford, South Fairfield, and Central Naugatuck Valley, and Shoreline Chapters. The date for the half-day retreat has not been set but most likely will be held in early August. The resulting public policy plan will be presented to the Board for approval in September and announced to membership at our Fall conference.
