Region 5! Volunteer for a WorkAbility I State Committee

[LISA LENNOX]

This message is being sent BCC to WorkAbility I Region 5.

Your involvement is needed! We have several vacancies on the WorkAbility I state committees and are seeking dedicated members from Region 5 to serve as representatives or alternate representatives.

Volunteering for a state committee is one of the most impactful ways to get involved. Not only will you gain a deeper understanding of the WAI program, but you'll also be directly representing and advocating for our region. You do not need to attend the September meeting to run for a position.
