This issue of Member to Member Connection is dedicated to our advisors. Your letters express it all! Advisors have supported many of you over the phone, often for years. Even though you have never met your advisors in person, they have touched your lives.

Advisors share their knowledge and wisdom – and their hearts. They care for our members and their families well beyond the two or three phone calls a year and what their job title suggests. One member refers to hers as “an angel on the other end of the line.”

The Special Needs and Moving On projects have always been about more than the financial assistance parents receive: they are about support, communication and caring. We hope you enjoy this issue.

On behalf of Lynn Bue (CUPW), Richard Des Lauriers (UPCE), Jamie Kass, CUPW & UPCE Child Care Coordinator, JoAnna LaTulippe-Rochon (Family Place) and all the project staff (Gail, Dorothy and Cary) we send all advisors our appreciation and thanks.
