Please welcome our newest staff member at the OACP office: Ms. Kayla Dickson. She is replacing Anne Campbell who is wanting to “jump ship” to spend more time with her extended family. We will miss her helpful presence around the office but look forward to handing off “her ropes of responsibility” to Kayla who brings much tech experience and organizational skills, along with energy to take on this new challenge.

Those who registered for the conference will be receiving a link to the presentations we were given permission to record as soon as they are edited and ready to go. Thank you DPSST for allowing videographers Nick and Coy Alexander to use their time and expertise with this.
