The program planned sounds very interesting.
Sorry I won't be there.
I do plan on being on the August conference call on 8/12.
Perhaps next summer I'll be able to make Ohio.

The call began at 8:30 pm. EDT., 5:30 pm. PDT. In attendance
were Marleen O'Neill, Andy Baracco, Darian Slayton Fleming, and Donna
Williams. The topic for discussion was a preview of the ACB-HSP program
at the ACB conference and convention that will be held in Louisville
Kentucky from July 6 through July 14, 2012, and a discussion regarding
the future of ACB-HSP. Regarding the ACB-HSP program, there will be a
non-alcoholic happy hour on Tuesday, July 10 from 5:45 to 7:00 pm.
Non-alcoholic beverages will be served, along with popcorn, soft
pretzels, and mustard dip. The ACB-HSP business meeting will be held on
Wednesday, July 11 from 1:15 to 2:30, and the presentation will begin at
2:45 and last until 4:00 pm. Peter Altschul will speak on diversity in
the workplace, and how to create a diversity training that includes
disability as a topic. Darian suggested that a training for employers
regarding disability be created, and she will ask Peter about that in
the question and answer session following his presentation. The
affiliate cost will be $8 preregistration, and $10 at the door. The
cost for the happy hour will be $10 preregistration, and $12 at the
door. The business meeting is free, but the presentation will cost $8
preregistration, and $10 at the door. The topic of discussion for the
August conference call will be a synopsis of what transpired at the
convention. Darian stated that she and Deanna Austin will collect dues
at each event, and she will try to find out what members want for the
future of ACB-HSP. Due to a scheduling conflict for Darian, the August
conference call will be held on August 12 instead of August 5. A
brainstorming session was held regarding the problem of low attendance
at the conference calls, and it was agreed that this topic will be
revisited after the ACB conference and convention, where Darian hopes to
get some feedback from the membership. The call was adjourned at 9:30
pm. EDT., 6:30 pm. PDt.
Respectfully Submitted,
Marleen O'Neill
