Program

Thanks to those of you who were able to join us for our Holmes Commission Final Report Town Hall on Saturday. Because of the momentum that was developing in our group process, AAPCSW leadership will be hosting a second town hall on Saturday August 12th from 1-3pm EDT. We hope to see many of you who attended for the first town hall and those who were not able to attend are welcome to join as well. We will resume our discussion of the implications of this report for AAPCSW and ways we can take action.

Below are references and links shared by Teresa Méndez from her moving reflection on her experience serving on the Holmes Commission.
