WADE Wants To Hear From You!

At WADE Board Retreat, there was discussion about effectively communication with our members. WADE decided to survey members following each board meeting using a short, internet based tool called Survey Monkey. Each survey should only take a couple of minutes. Please participate in the surveys and encourage your fellow members to participate. The results will be reported in the upcoming newsletters and on this website. Click here to take the survey (topics include: WADE offer CEU credits?  and more)

Dearest WADE Members,

William Arthur Ward once said, “Feeling gratitude and not expressing it is like wrapping a present and not giving it.” This is my last message as your president and I want to express my appreciation to you for this once in a lifetime opportunity.  read more of the President's Message ...
