“Please circulate to ED and all the staff and the board. Good morning everyone,
I just wanted to pass along my thanks for the amazing way the ADRIC staff and volunteers have stepped up to continue to provide meaningful, professional and timely information and education for our members. The way in which everyone at ADRIC has met the challenge of COVID and embraced the livestream concept is inspiring. Along with the ongoing information through the journal and other means, ADRIC is truly providing a valued service to our members.
Thanks for all you do.” – Anne M. Wallace, Q.C., LL.B., C.Arb., C.Med., CTAJ, IMI Cert.
