Recognizing Mary VanRiper, LMFT!

We want to recognize board member Mary Van Riper, Director of Special Events, for her hard work in bringing the chapter together after COVID hit. Mary brought her research skills to the board and created the survey that we sent out in April. The board received a terrific response to the survey with one quarter of our membership returning responses. Mary and Nancy Orr spent countless hours analyzing the results and following up with members about concerns they had expressed in the survey, COVID-related challenges they were experiencing, and ways that they would be willing to help fellow members. The results were published in the June issue of the newsletter. Mary then went on to help create the monthly social gathering that we have enjoyed in July and August and which we plan to continue. Thank you, Mary!
