By Diane Pardes, Past President and Delegate, Boston Chapter

PRSA Boston Chapter President  Josh Gitelson and I recently met with other chapter leaders across the Northeast in Troy, NY for an off-site planning meeting.  It was a great meeting of the minds and opportunity to share best practices and plans for district-wide activities.  Here are some of the exciting developments that were discussed in the meeting:

• Northeast District Conference – The 2015 conference will be held in the Capital Region (Albany) in September. We’ll keep you posted as the details of the event unfold.  Also, Boston will host the 2016 PRSA Northeast District Conference – so stay tuned for the many exciting developments to come.
• The Digital District – The district is planning to offer online professional development and information sharing programs. While this program is still in the initial stages, the goal of the Digital District is to share insights from the great talent across the district.
• Communications – By now you might have seen the new district website – http://www.prsanortheast.org/. Be on the lookout for a district newsletter and a more active Linkedin presence.

If you are interested in helping out with any of the above programs, please contact Josh Gitelson at josh.gitelson@rfbinder.com.
