Association (WLA). With this change, CLAMS retains its identity and CTC-focused work, and becomes a Section of WLA (if you are curious about Sections in WLA, </span><span style="font-family:HelveticaNeue;color:#333333"><a href="https://nam02.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.wla.org%2F&data=01%7C01%7Cheath.hayden%40bellevuecollege.edu%7C6b3e9de1fa754d30446608d6a68a7ccd%7Cf94c251c1347422eb3ea8ac56befd6cb%7C1&sdata=8N2hn9YItFKISKEG2gJVicOcNZcP4bnc%2FwZ3MFAkUws%3D&reserved=0"><span style="font-size:11.0pt;line-height:150%;font-family:"Calibri",sans-serif">visit

support from WLA for future professional development events, workshops, etc. Many CLAMS members might remember how powerful and engaging CLAMS conferences were in the history of our organization and we want to make this a priority once CLAMS is firmly rooted
as a Section of WLA. Moving over to WLA provides us with breathing room to focus on CTC experiences and networking, as well as professional development needs while WLA supports CLAMS leadership with logistics. This also means more representation in a statewide
advocacy organization with a diverse offering of professional development opportunities. There is a small group of CLAMS membership that are working on this merger effort and we wanted to be transparent about these changes as they move forward.</span><o:p></o:p></p>

to the formation of the CLAMS section. We’d like to find out how many CTCs (or individuals) have already made the transition to WLA or have plans in the works. We would also like to solicit anyone who would be interested in serving as a steering committee
member for the remainder of the 2019 year and/or 2020. The bulk of the work for 2019 will be completing the transition and stabilizing the CLAMS section so we can hit the ground running in 2020, which is a PERFECT time to put your name in the hat to join the
Steering Committee. This will help us greatly as we continue to make the transition to becoming an official Section of WLA.

where the existing CLAMS listserv is still available as we transition to the new CLAMS listserv under WLA. At some point the CLAMS listserv will be sunset, but we will do everything we can to archive the content there for future access. Once the CLAMS Section
listserv under WLA is live, up, and running this will only be available to those who are a member of this Section of WLA.</span><o:p></o:p></p>
