PRESIDENT’S

Message

Greetings…and welcome to our brand new PNWD-IAI website! Your board has worked tirelessly to make this happen and we hope it brings great benefits to our membership. With the launch of this site, we are announcing exciting changes well beyond the website. If you haven’t renewed your membership for 2022, or started the new membership process yet, you will soon see that our entire process has become much more automated. SO LONG PAPER FORMS!!! We have also created a membership portal where each member can login to check membership status, print/view membership cards, view newsletters, and edit personal profile information. But this is just the beginning, as this updated website affords our organization many more opportunities for growth. So stay tuned for more to come…including our very popular webinar opportunities we will continue offering to PNWD-IAI members only.

Be Safe – Nikki Wagar, PNWD-IAI President
