EFT HRVA UPDATES

Thank you for completing the survey Traci sent out! That feedback is helpful in planning things that are a useful and helpful for our community.

The top three requested items from the survey were social events, lunch and learns, and master classes.

>> Please look out for an email invitation from Traci and Amanda regarding a social event toward the end of October.

>> We are planning to have a lunch and learn/ holiday party at the beginning of December. Please look out for a survey from Traci regarding topic areas you would like covered in either lunch and learns or masterclasses.

Finally, based on the survey results, we have decided to cancel the peer consult as it was one of the items that got the least amount of votes. However, if you have any consultation concerns, please feel free to send them out on the listserv (protecting PHI/PII, etc.) so we as a community can help support each other.

We look forward to hopefully seeing many of you at the upcoming social and lunch and learn!
