NHMA
ummer days may linger into September, but here at NHMA, we are ready to get back to business! The fall is our busiest time for member workshops and training programs, as staff have been planning and preparing over the summer to get them all ready.
Speaking of staff, we are excited to introduce Katherine Heck as our new Government Finance Advisor! Katherine lives in Greenfield where she has served as the Town Treasurer for the past 15 years and is elected to the local School Board. Katherine received her bachelor’s degree from Mount Holyoke College and certificates in Municipal Finance from the University of Chicago and in Public Financial Management from the International Monetary Fund. In addition to her public sector position, Katherine also owned her own firm which provided financial consulting and project-based financial services to New England cities, towns, schools districts and U.S. based non-profit organizations. Welcome aboard, Katherine! September brings the Budget & Finance Workshop, one of our most attended workshops, which always provides up-to-date and valuable information about budget and municipal finances. This year’s program will include an update of the American Rescue Plan Act (ARPA) and how to get the most out of ARPA for your community and the latest info on the new state budget and the status of state aid, so join us virtually on Tuesday, September 14th. Don’t delay, register today!
