Jennifer Pierce, President of MSHA
May 2009
Dear Colleagues & Consumers:
Welcome to the new look of MSHA! The Executive Board
is pleased and proud to offer this new updated
website to you as a benefit to members and a
resource to consumers. We are still under
construction and welcome your input and feedback.
The MSHA Executive Board has been busy this year.
- We have approved a web site update,
including the use of the on-line payment tool,
PayPal.
- We have, through Elaine Spino (Political
Action Chair) and Ed Bartlett (Lobbyist), taken
an active stance on issues related to our
professions and the consumers we serve.
- We have approved Dr. Al Yanovitz’s position
to the Executive Board and look forward to his
leadership and expertise. Furthermore, we have
approved the UM Student Liaison position on the
Executive Board. Leslie DeDominic has graciously
agreed to represent the students of UM and
assist in building bridges between our programs.
- We are in the process of sponsoring a LOGO
contest with a prize of $250 and honorable
mention in the local paper. The contest is open
to anyone! It is our feeling that if we are to
become a state-wide resource for members,
consumers and agencies that we need a logo that
uniquely identifies us and our services.
We have lots of work to do and invite you to be
actively involved in making MSHA a state-wide
resource and recognizable leader on issues
related to communication disorders.
I hope to see you at Summer Institute.
Sincerely,
Jennifer
