At the board meeting, Allison and I asked about the importance of having MDH speak this year. The idea that arose was to cover MAARC (common entry point). I wasn’t thinking about the origination of our question when that came up. MAARC is housed in DHS. We can certainly seek a session on this topic, but it would mean that DHS is doing 2 sessions and MDH none. I’m not sure if there is anything new for MDH to address – and with the transition of staff, I’m not certain who we would ask. So…….I’m looping back with you to ensure you are comfortable with us not inviting MDH to speak at the 2016 Annual Meeting. Thanks!

Warm Regards,

Kathy Messerli
