Local chapter update: Leverage the ACDIS team for your newsletters

CDI Strategies - Volume 14, Issue 44

If you’re ever running low on content to write about for your local chapter newsletters, reach out to any of the ACDIS national team (Brian Murphy [bmurphy@acdis.org], Melissa Varnavas [mvarnavas@acdis.org.], Linnea Archibald [larchibald@acdis.org], and Carolyn Riel [criel@acdis.org]) and chat with us!

The California ACDIS chapter recently interviewed Brian Murphy about the ACDIS Diversity and Inclusion Task Force (read their newsletter and interview here). We’d always love to chat with you about different things ACDIS national has going on, whether it’s a committee, CDI Week, our events, or anything else! Reach out and let us know what you’d like to talk about.
