Summer OYAN meeting is July 28th!

Hello everyone!

Our next OYAN member meeting will be on Friday, July 28th!

This meeting will be virtual and run from 11am-1pm. The Zoom link can be found on the OLA website in the events calendar. If you are an OYAN member or CSD member, you should have received another email with the Zoom link info in your email.

I wanted to take this opportunity to address the listserv and invite folks *who serve young adults in Oregon* who may NOT be current members of OYAN to attend this meeting and see what we’re all about! We’re hoping to get feedback from folks about what you want from OYAN moving forward, but we can make any changes if we don’t hear from you!

I hope to see you at our meeting!
