2020 VASSA Conference Update
Greetings Everyone,
In light of the COVID-19 crisis, the VASSA Board of Directors has decided to cancel the 2020 VASSA Conference and Membership Meeting scheduled for August 3-5, 2020. Even if the crisis were to be technically resolved by August, we are fairly certain that life will not yet have returned to normal sufficiently to enable most of us or our members to attend the conference.
We are currently working on developing alternatives to offer this year in lieu of the annual face-to-face conference, including a virtual business meeting and educational sessions such as webinars, online workshops, and other creative sessions. We will provide information about those as soon as we have them developed.
Because this was to be our 15th Anniversary Celebration, we are particularly saddened to cancel, but being safe and healthy is more important. We will celebrate all the more in 2021; oh, yes, indeed!
Be well, and please follow the WHO and/or the CDC guidelines to stay safe!
Sincerely,
The VASSA Board of Directors & Conference Planning Committee
PS – Please hold on to those abstracts that you have developed and/or will develop (especially related to virtual reality) for the 2021 conference!
