Dear KCMPI Family:

This is a time of great change. Our global economy is facing challenges unforeseen since the last century. For the first-time in history Americans have elected an African-American to lead us as president for the next four years. In some way, each of us is affected by the state of affairs in our country and around the world. 

As President of KCMPI, I have asked myself how I can help you during this time. What can we as an organization offer that will help shape your future? How can we prepare you better for future career opportunities?
