In Memoriam
![]() Former Editorial Director, Events & Education
|
Melissa passed away after a long battle with cancer in August 2022. Over her 16 years with ACDIS, Melissa was responsible for building ACDIS' editorial content and developing an extensive line of educational content including live events, web-based seminars, podcasts, books, newsletters, and our award-winning website. She also managed more than 40 ACDIS networking groups/state chapters and was a host of the ACDIS Podcast. ACDIS would not be the association it is today without Melissa's joyful creativity. We miss her deeply and know our members feel the same. Rest in purple, Melissa.
