Dear Members,
April is the perfect time to celebrate the heart of AL!VE: our volunteers! From leading committees, programs, and events, to shaping the future of our profession, VOLUNTEERS make our mission possible.

This month, we honor your dedication, amplify your voices, and invite more members to get involved. Thank you for your time, talent, and leadership. AL!VE thrives because of you!
Sincerely, Darlene
