Dear Colleagues and Friends of NCPF,
Thank you to all of those who participated in our January Poll. The winner of the raffle for January's DVD set is Margaret Wilner. Congratulations! See how you can be entered in the next drawing under the heading FREE DVDs.
Last month we asked you, our readers, "How frequently should NCPF distribute the Mental Health Professional E-Bulletins?" Weekly or Bi-Weekly, and 81% of our readership prefer to receive the once weekly e-bulletin on a bi-weekly basis. Therefore, NCPF will distribute a monthly e-bulletin referred to as our "Monthly Community Newsletter" the first week of each month to our entire e-mail list and a bi-weekly professional e-bulletin on the second and fourth weeks of each month to mental health professionals. Please see this month's poll question to be entered in the next raffle! |
