AAHSA members all over the country will be celebrating Homecoming next week. What is your community doing?
As an organization that puts quality first, you know the importance of telling your story. Use your AAHSA Homecoming Week event to highlight your community involvement; talk about your activities and commitment in your speeches and mention them in your event materials. AAHSA Homecoming Week isn’t simply about hosting one event; it’s about sharing your good work with the community-at-large. Your Quality First initiative works hand in hand with this effort.
Quality First Connections
Highlight Quality First Element #4. Community Involvement by planning:

- Policymakers by developing your relationship with them
