President's Message - AJLI Connecting to You!

The opportunities for JL members to be “connected” with AJLI (The Association of Junior Leagues International) and other Leagues continue to expand!

Webinar Wednesdays

As one of the many methods to help Junior League women develop as community and civic leaders, AJLI is launching Webinar Wednesdays.  They are designed to appeal to every JL member, regardless of age or current engagement in her community.  Webinar Wednesdays will begin this month and run through May 2012, and will be offered on the first and third Wednesdays of the month at 1pm (Eastern Time Zone). For more details, see page 7 of last month’s Lasso.
Other AJLI Webinars

AJLI has scheduled, and will continue to schedule, other webinars on various issues of importance to the Roadmap for the Future Strategic Plan, such as one on Collaborative League Engagement and Governance Structure. See page 10 of this Lasso for more details.

Quarterly All-Member Emails

By now you should have received the quarterly email that AJLI will send every Junior League member with an email address. These emails are designed to share resources, benefits, opportunities to learn and connect, provide information and demystify what the Association does throughout the year, as well as build a stronger relationship with and among members. It is hoped that these emails will foster a more networked Association whose individual members and Leagues are aware of what their peers are doing and are better equipped to make an impact in the communities they serve through the sharing of ideas and best practices. Naturally, each of you will be able to opt out of the All Member Emails if you so choose.

So, as the quarterly AJLI newsletter is entitled - get “connected”!
