What Our Members Are Saying…
” The opportunity to learn with and from other board chairs has been incredibly valuable.”
“ISCA has been such a terrific wealth of information this year. The variety of information you provided through the website, webinars, and facilitated Chair Chats was such a valuable resource. These touchpoints helped me, and I’m sure a lot of other board chairs, better navigate through these tumultuous times. Thank you so much!”
