    Again this year we are hosting an informative Zoom program, Getting to Know LDEI-SF: New Member & Slack Orientation. It’s designed for our 2024 inductees, newer members and any SF Chapter member interested in learning how to use our Slack Work Space. We will orient you to our 35-year-old chapter, its history, board and committee structure, and our mission and goals, then visually demonstrate how to use our Slack Work Space. Also featured, a summary of the October annual LDEI conference. This program will be hosted by President Kara Nielsen and will feature board members and committee chairs. Bring your questions and favorite happy-hour drink and get to know your chapter!
