AUGUST NEWSLETTER

Join us for our next membership meeting on Septmeber 4

Greetings CCCHS!

 

I hope everyone is enjoying the beautiful summer weather! We're excited to get membership meetings started back up in September. The next membership meeting will be on September 4, 2019 at 12pm at Calvary. We look forward to networking with you all and hearing updates from your organizations!

 

Last year, many of you participated in a membership survey to provide us feedback on a variety of topics. The Board of Directors has been reviewing this feedback as a whole as well as within specific committees. We value your feedback and have found this to be a a very helpful tool. As meetings resume in the fall, you will see some changes to the format that we hope will provide more opportunity for networking and interaction.

 

We're happy to share that the 2019 Robert (Bob) T. Ott Seed Grant applications are available. You can access the application on our website at www.theccchs.org. This year, there will be up to 2 awardees and up to $5,000 distributed. If you have any questions, reach out to Natalie at nvesey@homenursing agency.com.

 

We hope you all join us on September 4 at 12pm at Calvary. Presentations will be provided by Faith Ryan, Office of Adult Services for Centre County and Tracy Kelley, WIC.
