Executive Director of CAMFT Speaks at July 23rd Meeting
Friday, July 23rd, CAMFT Executive Director Mary Riemersma will speak on the current state of CAMFT. Come learn firsthand how you can influence CAMFT on a state level. Find out about important legislative issues that effect you! As the face of CAMFT to the state legislature, Mary has been privy to CAMFT's most important and influential decisions. Take advantage of her unique perspective and learn more about the organization that represents you and your profession.
Mary Riemersma, a Certified Association Executive (CAE), has been Executive Director for the California Association of Marriage and Family Therapists (CAMFT) for twenty-five years. Additionally, she has been in the business of managing associations for over forty years. She holds an MBA, an MS, and a BA from Arizona State University. She recently announced her retirement, planned for December 31, 2010.
Café CAMFT provides a venue for you to meet your colleagues in an atmosphere of diversity, enthusiasm, and warm peer support. Bring your questions and personal experiences. The facilitator starts the discussion with a 15-20 minute exploration on the theme and the group does the rest.
To volunteer to speak on a topic of your own or to suggest a topic, contact Sylvia Yee or Connie Grimes at CafeCAMFT. We also invite members to join the Café Team to participate in the organization and production of this stimulating and important ongoing activity. Café CAMFT is provided to you by Santa Cruz CAMFT members.
We open each Café meeting by "checking in" so people have an opportunity to introduce themselves and share current information. There is also a drawing for a free lunch, so bring your business card.
We hope to see you there!
