IAP2 USA November 2023 News
From the Executive Manager Erin Zimmermann
Happy November! As 2023 begins to wind down, I hope you are able to find some stillness. Public Participation is a fast-paced field and our world isn’t slowing down. I want to take a moment and extend my heartfelt wishes for you and express my sincere gratitude. In this season of reflection, may you find moments of tranquility and wellness, fostering a sense of balance. Your commitment to public participation is the cornerstone of our association. It is exciting to learn from and hear stories about the incredible engagement work that our members are leading and supporting. Congratulations to our Core Values Award winners! It is truly inspiring to see the impact that our members are having in communities near and far. IAP2 has had a successful year and we are preparing for how to maintain such tremendous momentum into the new year. This organization exists because of its members. As we continue to grow our programs and services, we encourage you to consider getting more involved. We have several volunteer opportunities available and are especially interested in expanding our Training Committee. Learn more about Volunteer Opportunities . If you have ideas to share, please reach out to us. Erin Zimmermann, Executive Manager IAP2 USA |
