Subject: Public Relations/Communications Committee

Good afternoon everyone,

It was good to see some of you at NCRA. I hope you all had fun (not just work)!

I would like to reactivate the following committee:

C. PUBLIC RELATIONS/COMMUNICATIONS COMMITTEE: This committee shall consist of a chairman and two or more members with the past chairman serving as a member at large for two years. This committee shall be responsible for publications of this Association. They shall see that it contains reports of the affairs of the Association, decisions of the Executive Committee, educational items, reports of the committees, biographical sketches of members, results of elections and other items of interest, exclusive of the financial report. They shall carry out projects designed to bring the Association and its activities to the attention of other allied health professions and the public.

I would like to task this committee to start a Facebook page to allow for distribution of information and allow contact between members.

Please let me know if you want to volunteer for this committee or any thoughts you might have.

thanks!
