A Message from the Executive Director

Staying Connected. Staying Relevant.

Staying Strong. by JILL SNITCHER

Working remotely has, until now, been a nice option when balancing work and life. Suddenly, however, working remotely has become a way of life, forcing us to balance work and life in a whole new way. It’s participating in Zoom meetings while kids imitate TikToks in the background (in between study sessions, of course); it’s trying to stay relatively active

in the confines of your own home, including walking up and down the steps while on a conference call; it’s trying to figure out and respect when your colleagues are on the clock in order to accomplish your own set of tasks; it’s trying desperately not to get sucked into the latest online sale or keto recipe that pop up on my google searches; and it’s learning to communicate in better, yet different, ways. It’s about staying connected, staying relevant and staying strong.
