From the Director's Desk:

More and more people are hearing about the HCQU and wondering who we are and what we do. I am available to speak about the HCQU at staff meetings, county meetings, or any other meetings, and present Northwest Health Connections. I believe it is important for individuals in our nine-county area to know the services we provide to caregivers, families, and individuals who support those with mental retardation. If you know of a group needing a speaker, I would be happy to provide information concerning the purpose of the HCQU and the trainings, support, and technical assistance offered by our staff.

I would also like to take this opportunity to wish everyone a happy holiday season and a happy, healthy, and prosperous 2003.

Best wishes,

Joanne
