Season’s Greetings All,

I hope that everyone is gearing up for some much deserved down time with immediate family over the next few weeks. I wanted to reach out to say thank you for all you’ve done during this pandemic and to also share with you some exciting news.

First, we are so thankful to have you working on behalf of moms and babies at this time. Although, COVID has taken the world by storm and has left many families impacted with lost loved ones or ill family members, your efforts, leadership, passion and professionalism have not gone unnoticed. You have helped to make the best out of a bad situation and we are so thankful for you, all your sacrifices and all you do. Thank you!!!

Second, I’d like to acknowledge the hard working AMCHP team, who behind the scenes who have, likewise, worked tirelessly to support the needs of our members. I am biased, but you should know that you have a great team of people at AMCHP working on your behalf or alongside of you to improve the lives of moms and babies. This team is led by a few people that I wanted to publicly acknowledge today. I’d like to share some exciting news about Caroline Stampfel, Amy Haddad and Nikeisha Ogletree. Please join me in congratulating these phenomenal leaders as they assume increased responsibility within AMCHP. Caroline will become the new Chief Program and Strategy Officer. Amy will become the new Chief Government Affairs Officer. Nikeisha will become the new Chief of Staff. All changes effective immediately. It has been a pleasure working with these women as they’ve masterfully led teams that have supported the needs of our membership, advanced programs and policies that improve the health of moms and babies, and charted a course for organizational growth. Congratulations!

Happy Holidays!

Be safe.

Jonathan
