Southern California ACE Network
Regional News
Greetings!
My name is Dilcie Perez and I am the new ACE Southern California Regional Coordinator. I know it has been a few months since you have last heard from the Network, but please know that Maya and I have been working hard to develop new initiatives to strengthen our Network and increase the amount of participation across our region. Please take a few moments to read the following important updates:
New contact information:

Website address:

Telephone number:
We have a new telephone number: (760) 750-4973.
ListServ:
As a way to build community and share information, we have established a list serv. We encourage you and your campus participants to sign up at: http://coyote.csusm.edu/mailman/listinfo/socalnetwork
Webinars:
As California continues to feel the effects of our current budget crisis, many campuses are "tightening" their checkbooks and limiting, if not eliminating, travel and professional development. In response to this, a small team has worked diligently to develop a webinar series for Spring 2009. Each webinar will be 1 hour in length and provide a 20 minute presentation and 30 minute discussion. Our first webinar will be on January 29th. Please check the Meeting Information webpage for more information.
IR Meeting:
The purpose of this meeting is to review the survey results, clarify roles and expectations, and develop a strategic plan for our Network. We are currently planning a date for this event.
Thank you to everyone for such a warm welcome to the Network. I look forward to working with each of you.
If you have any questions or suggestions, please feel free to contact Maya Alvarez or myself at (760) 750-4973.
