2011 President's Message

This is an exciting year for New Mexico Healthcare Human Resources Association as is every year and I am tremendously honored to be President for 2011. Four meetings are planned this year and we hope to bring outstanding speakers and information while we keep the low membership costs to our members.

Develop chapter meeting programs that continues to foster expertise in the field of Healthcare HR.

Increase visibility and involvement of NMHHRA by increasing our membership.

With so many people in need , one of the goals we can achieve is to reach out to our community through some form of giving; to achieve this goal we need you…this is true of any goal NMHHRA meets…your participation in our committees is what will make our New Mexico Chapter grow and be successful.
