Upcoming Events
From the President's DeskGreetings to the CCCDA Community, I would like to extend a welcome to you all as this year's president. The CCCDA community is one that I have truly come to appreciate since moving to Connecticut in 2020. I am thankful to have the opportunity to serve you all in this capacity, and want you to know that whether you are a new member, seasoned member, or soon-to-be member, I look forward to our journey this year. It is said that our careers are a constellation of roles we play in our lifetime. This organization recognizes and honors those various roles and we do our best to provide you all with a wide array of professional development opportunities. Our post-COVID world is one that we are all navigating one day at a time. Now, more than ever, we are thinking about our career values, work-life balance, and life goals. Each week, I find an article, video, post, or reel related to career development and learn more about the experiences of various individuals and populations. We are committed to providing a high quality experience for each of you. Please be on the look out for information regarding our upcoming events! Noontime Conversations will be thought-provoking and informative, and our 2025 Conference next year will surely be one for the books. We will increase our communication and engagement this year and much of the information you need will be in our newsletters or on social media. Once again, thank you for being a part of this community and I hope to see you soon! In community, Diandra J.
