Letter From the President

Each January I have such plans for keeping my New Year’s resolutions. I always try to pick resolutions I can actually keep and strategically go public with my intentions. I recently read a list of top-ten resolutions for 2010. The list included the predictable usual: lose weight, exercise more, spend more time with family and friends, etc.

Ok. I’m not going public with my personal resolutions, but as SCPA President, I am going public with my SCPA resolu-tions: learn more about current state legislative issues, at-tend all of the free education provided to SCPA members, support March of Dimes more, help to recruit more members in 2010 and continue to lead SCPA so our organization remains one of the largest and most active perinatal associations in the country.

Now I would not be so pre-sumptuous to ask anyone to help me with my resolutions. However, I would ask each SCPA member to make and keep this one resolution: Stay involved with SCPA in 2010. If you’re not a member, join today. Together, we can make a difference in perinatal outcomes in South Carolina.

The number nine resolution on that 2010 top-ten New Year’s resolution list was help others. As health professionals, we do this everyday. Mark that resolution as complete. See, it’s easy!

Best,

SCPA President
