2008 TIHCA CONFERENCE

November 19-21, 2008

Renaissance Hotel at the Arboretum

 

The 2008 Annual TIHCA Conference, held at the Renaissance Austin was a success for all those involved. Representatives from over 80 entities attended the conference and were able to make great strides in learning more about health care.

The conference also included sessions on communicating with your board, diabetes, best practices and an update on the 81^st legislative session.

 At our annual business meeting, we announced the departure of three board members and the appointment of their replacements. TIHCA will miss the leadership and contributions from Board Members Rebecca Currington of Hockley County,  Donna Burt of Liberty County and Chair-Elect Karl Lavine of Fort Bend County.

We will be looking forward to new ideas from their appointments Anita Dunlap of Tom Green County, Eddie Olivarez of Hidalgo County and Linda Dickerson of Jasper County. Bride Roberts of Williamson County accepted the appointment to fulfill the term of Chair-Elect.  

TIHCA would like to send out a special thank you for all the donations received for door prizes. Also, without the volunteer staff that manned the registration, resource and membership tables and digitally recorded the sessions, TIHCA 2008 would not be the same quality event.

Thank you to all the participants, speakers and sponsors who made it possible.

You can now access the presentations from the conference on the TIHCA Website: here

In the meantime many of the resources found at the conference can be found on the resource page of the website, including the Quick Reference Guide, and it will be updated daily.
