Message from the President - September 2021

PRESIDENT’S MESSAGE

Summer is near over, and we are gearing up for a very busy season. We had a very productive summer with our new Contact Management System up, preparedness for adding three new staff members, planning for at least six new specialty support groups, and now looking forward to seeing more dear friends and new friends at the Support Group Meetings – Zooming right along. Just an FYI, because of the new COVID variants, PRO will not be putting the PRO community of already compromised individuals at risk by resuming personal support groups meetings. If you have participated in our support group meetings, please share your experience with someone you know, a friend, neighbor, or the friend of a relative. You never know how your invitation may impact another life and how priceless that connection might become.

   Take a look at the Calendar as well to note the meetings that are resuming this month.

            Reading within remains PROvocative and educational, to be sure.
