August is here and it is hard to believe that summer is winding down, kids are getting ready to go back to school in the next couple of weeks and fall weather will be upon us before we know it.

Thank you to all who were able to join us in July for our annual legal update with Jean Bender and Brooke Schmidt. This meeting exceeded our expectations in attendance both virtually and in person. We would like to extend our appreciation to all our incredible speakers who have generously shared their knowledge and expertise with us.

SESHRM is excited to be partnering with the Business Resource Network to celebrate National Disability Employment Awareness Month with an event in October! More information will be available about this event soon.

Our August meeting will be presented by Rachel Gackle & Christy Westerman, Employee Benefits Consultants with Marsh & McLennan Agency. They will be exploring the progressive evolution of employer wellness programs and exploring innovative ideas for reimagining your own program.

Our organization thrives because of the dedication and passion of its members. As we look to the future, we need additional leaders to help steer our organization. We are calling on you to consider running for one of our open board positions. We are actively recruiting for the following board positions for 2025: President Elect, Secretary, Membership Director, Marketing Director, Treasurer, Conference Chair & Communications Director. Everyone’s involvement is crucial for our continued success and growth. Please reach out to one of our current board members if you are interested as we would like to roll out board elections in October 2024.

Thank you for all you do!
