Local chapter update: 2021 is just around the corner

CDI Strategies - Volume 14, Issue 50

As fall is in full swing and the holiday season approaches, the new year is just around the corner. While we don’t know what 2021 will bring for social gatherings and next steps towards back to normal from the pandemic, it’s time to start planning ahead for your 2021 local chapter events.

We’ve had quite a few months now to adjust to remote meetings and events, so let’s make 2021 the time to perfect it. Is there a new meeting platform you want to try? Have ideas about engaging with your chapters on social media? Wanting to try a live discussion over video? Let us know your plans and ideas meeting in the new year!
