Summer is an exciting time at NADP because of the multitude of activities. CONVERGE preparation is in full swing. The strategic planning process continues. NADP has fielded the Social Responsibility Survey to collect valuable information for our advocacy and communications initiatives. The Nominations Committee is developing a list of Board candidates and encouraging members to submit nominations. In addition, preparation is underway for the 2022 Call for Volunteers, which will open in the fall. And, next month we will recognize many of our members by announcing recipients of NADP volunteer awards. As you can see, a lot is going on, and it is my privilege to share a few highlights with you.
