Thank you to MNCDHH for an informative session!
Those who attended the January 18, 2025 chapter meeting of HLAA-TC were treated to a very engaging and informative session by the Minnesota Commission of the Deaf, DeafBlind and Hard of Hearing (MNCDHH).
THE MNCDHH Public Policy 2025 Preview was a virtual session held on Zoom by MNCDHH. HLAA-TC members could attend just virtually on Zoom but chapter members were encouraged to attend in person at Courage Kenny to get the full HLAA-TC Chapter Meeting experience. Those who attended in person at Courage Kenny in Golden Valley, MN watched the Public Policy 2025 Preview as presented by Alicia Lane, MNCDHH Government Relations Director AND were treated to MNCDHH Executive Director Darlene Zangara being there in person. The In person attendees at Courage Kenny also had a HLAA-TC chapter meeting after the virtual Zoom MNCDHH Public Policy Preview Session.
