In early January 2024, a number of dedicated VRA Canada members joined a VRoom Café to develop our Target Initiatives for 2024 and onwards. One of those Initiatives was Communication – members need timely answers to questions about the association or their membership.

In response to this, the Membership Voices Committee has developed a monthly virtual Q & A Open House, hosted by someone dedicated to getting you the information you need.

Pick up the link from your e-bulletin, and pop in whenever you have questions that need answers!
