July 7, 2020

To:   All PADDNN Members

As concerns continue with the COVID-19 pandemic and in light of the recommended social distancing and masking mandates that we are all following, we have made the extremely difficult decision to cancel our 2020 PADDNN Conference that was scheduled for October 14. We feel this is necessary to protect the health of our members and the vulnerable population that we provide services to.

We intend to develop and offer other educational opportunities through virtual learning for this year. Information about future PADDNN meetings and events will be posted to our website.

All scholarships for DDNA and PADDNN 2020 conferences will be honored and transferred to 2021.

We thank you for your dedication and support. We hope that everyone is staying healthy and safe as you continue to provide services and support to people with ID/DD/A and their families.

We look forward to seeing everyone at future PADDNN meetings and at our 2021 PADDNN conference (details will be forthcoming).

Stay safe and healthy.

Thank you,

 

Sharon Falzone, President

Sandy Corrigan, Vice President

Donna Filippi, Secretary

Cheryl Callahan, Treasurer
