Committee Meetings
Each DLD Committee took time to meet with their members and plan ahead for the upcoming year. Committee membership is a great way to get involved and we are always looking for individuals who are willing to serve. If you are interested in joining a committee, please visit our committee page and contact the chair for how to get involved.
