Message from the President
Dear ASHHRA Colleagues, It’s that time of year when the hustle and bustle of all that holiday cheer starts to surround us. My hope is that each of you will have some time to celebrate the holidays with both your work and home families. Your ASHHRA Board and staff have worked hard this year to provide you value-added services such as the ASHHRA Learning Portal and Annual Conference. As we move wrap up 2018, I hope you can take some time to thank our staff and Board for all they have done.
