Quarterly Membership Conference Calls

Up to 2020, NEWH held quarterly webinars/calls for each discipline of the chapter boards. These calls were facilitated by the NEWH, Inc. VPs and NEWH, Inc. Directors. Board members received answers to questions, shared successes, and got ideas from other chapters on what worked for them! The minutes from these calls are a great resource for board members! Find minutes from past Membership calls posted here.
