Region IV

Hello Region IV! I am your Representative Jessica Eubank. I hope you are all doing well.

In March, the RID Board of Directors had our face to face meeting as well as Special Membership Meeting in Albuquerque, New Mexico. The New Mexico Affiliate Chapter NMRID was instrumental in helping us prepare for the meetings, and several members volunteered their time to assist in various ways. NMRID also planned an interpreter and community social event that allowed our community to get together and meet the members of the Board and CEO Star Grieser. It was a wonderful opportunity to connect with some fantastic members from our Region, and we are so grateful for NMRID and their support during that week.
