meeting at IECA

[Nancy Hopkins]

Hi everyone,

Is there a meeting at IECA for the Post-Secondary group? Just checking. Riverview hasn’t been to IECA in a while.

Please let me know what your thoughts are.

Best,

Nancy

Hi Nancy! 

Below is the content of an email between Rachel King from IECA and myself regarding on a meeting location for our group. We will be meeting the hour before lunch on Tuesday because our previously normal meeting time of 5:30pm on day one would mean that we would miss the therapeutic swap, an event that most people like to check out. 

You can see in the second paragraph that there is a little shuffle going on as they try a few new things, try to do better for our group's audience, and also move to a once-a-year event, all at once. I'm so grateful for Rachel at this point, who reaches out to me, before I even reach to her. 

Hope this helps and when I have exact room info, I will send it out! Can't wait to see everyone! Jen

From Rachel King-- 

If you can make it work and the group agrees, meeting during the College Fair on Tuesday morning would work well from a meeting space standpoint. There will be a joint K-12 School Community and Therapeutic Community event from 10:15-11:15am. It will be on mental health…I’m thinking that’s something your group might want to attend. If so, we could set your meeting for right after that from 11:30am-12:30pm which would lead right into lunch at 12:30pm. Is an hour long enough for your group to connect?

 

And to briefly address your other topic, we at IECA have also had conversations about the appropriate event in which you should exhibit. It’s part of the reason for making the change in Tuesday’s event. IECs have struggled to make it around the Fair to visit everyone in the allotted time. Our hope is that those IECs who do postsecondary will use the Fair to visit the traditional 4-year institutions then come to the Exchange on Wednesday morning to see the more specialized LD postsecondary programs. We will try it in Connecticut, get feedback after the conference, and go from there!
