Association News
On behalf of the recently established Emerging Professionals Committee, we invite you to join our chapter in the newly designed Chapter Mentoring Program! By participating in this six-month program, you as an NAWIC member will have the opportunity to connect and learn from each other. By connecting our chapter members as mentees and mentors, you can develop personal and career skills, and enhance the value of your membership. Our program will be running from the end of November through May, with our mentees/mentors being recognized at our Industry Appreciation Dinner in May.
  
We are barely past the halfway point of our fundraising goal for this much-needed documentary. Please encourage your chapters and your fellow members to give toward the efforts. No gift is too great or too small. Any amount will help close the gap to reach our goal. Donors DO NOT have to be members to participate, and their gifts will leave a lasting impression on our industry for generations to come.
