At this time, be sure to send any updates or newly scheduled chapter events to ACDIS Editor Carolyn Riel (criel@acdis.org). If you have events planned further into the year, be sure to send those to us as well so we can get them up on your chapter page sooner and your members can plan ahead. The more details, the better!
