Dear ESAD Members and Supporters,

The ESAD Board of Directors has accepted the transfer of duties between our President, Joshua Finkle and Vice President, Steve Lovi effective April 1, 2008.

Steve Lovi will assume the President’s role of ESAD for the remainder of Joshua’s term through September, 2009. Joshua Finkle will now be ESAD’s Vice President for the remainder of Steve’s term through September 2009.

The ESAD Board of Directors thanks former President Finkle for his work and congratulates current President Lovi for taking on much needed advocacy and outreach on behalf of ESAD.

President Lovi will issue a new statewide ESAD community outreach plan within the next 45 days after consulting with members, supporters and stakeholders. Comments, suggestions or ideas from members and supporters would be very helpful during this period while developing this plan. Please feel free to direct these comments to Steve Lovi at slovi19@aol.com  by April 30th so that ESAD can incorporate your feedback into the community outreach plan.

Thank you!
