First, it was truly wonderful to see so many of you at our recent convening in Milwaukee! What an incredible experience it was to journey together, threading the theme of wellbeing through powerful moments of listening, learning, and witnessing one inspiring presentation after another. I was especially grateful for the chance to connect one-on-one with so many of you, including my fellow bus mates!
So, what’s next for membership?
We’re excited to focus on growing our Affiliate membership. Some of you may already know that our very first Affiliate member is Detroit’s own Visionz Group, led by Chris Rivers. Chris dove right into the MUS community, presenting with us at the National Youth Employment Coalition with a dynamic presentation on creating strategic partnerships. We’re now exploring opportunities to take that presentation on the road to additional conferences—stay tuned!
As we expand our Affiliate network, we want to start with you. Who in your network would you recommend for Affiliate membership? We’ve started a list and would love your input. Please send names and contact information to Kellie Landaker so we can reach out and keep the momentum going.
Looking forward to what we’ll build together next!
Til next month,
Kellie
