ASHE 2020 Virtual Chapter Leadership Forum and Awards Program
December 2, 2020
10:00 a.m. – 12:00 p.m. CST
ASHE announces the 2020 Virtual Chapter Leadership Forum and Awards Program!
This program will recognize chapters for their participation in the 2020 Awards program and Energy to Care Chapter Challenge, highlighting the hard work done in 2019 to support the health care physical environment and the field.
Join this event and be recognized by ASHE President Jeff Henne along with Board members from each region. Participate in a moderated panel featuring ASHE President Jeff Henne, ASHE Executive Director Deanna Martin, and ASHE Deputy Executive Director Chad Beebe, discussing member acquisition, volunteer engagement and how ASHE can add value to chapters during these unprecedented times.
This unique virtual event will give all participants the opportunity to engage with other leaders, refresh and energize during a scheduled break. Registration information will be released in early November. Please send any inquiries to ashechapters@aha.org.
We are excited to present this program virtually and look forward to the participation of all leaders and chapters members!
