This newsletter is intended for 2022 leaders of Women's Council. This important information should be read thoroughly and shared with your local members as needed.
Edition 25-2022 | December 1, 2022
2022 has been a year of continued growth for Women's Council. Thank you to all of our volunteer leaders around the country, we have surpassed our goal of reaching 13,000 members and we continue to grow each month. In November alone, we brought in 353 new members! Can we continue this momentum through December?
The holiday season is a great time to recruit new members! A new member can join through December 31 and their dues will cover 2023 plus the remainder of 2022.
If each of our leaders reached one new member, we would grow by 1,300 new members!
You can couple this opportunity with any localized incentives you might have to reach potential members before the year ends!
We have provided Canva templates to help you with recruiting new members before the year ends. Click the images below to customize to your network and download.
An Introduction to Your 2023 National Liaisons
Meet your 2023 National Liaisons! National Liaisons are elected to oversee the work of the National Women’s Council in their respective region, divided into east, central, and west. They are representatives of the National Leadership Team, serve on the National Executive Committee and nominating committee, chair the regional caucuses at National Meetings to conduct regional business affairs, and exchange information, identify opportunities and/or challenges within the region, and assist wherever possible.
Renewal Reminder
As a leader of Women's Council, you must pay your dues by 12/31/22. If dues are not paid, you will not be considered a member in good standing, and will not be able to hold your leadership position.
Login to wcr.org and click Renew on your membership and PMN on the Subscriptions page to begin the renewal process.
Microsite Updates
You will notice that your 2023 Network Leaders are now listed on your network microsite. All leaders that have been reported to National are fully updated. If your microsite does not reflect your 2023 leadership team, then National does not have your officer reporting form on file. Please make sure this is completed as soon as possible.
Local Officer Reporting State Officer Reporting
With your microsite updates, please remember that each leadership team profile picture is automatically pulled from their wcr.org member profile. Each officer will need to upload their own image at 150 x 150 pixels for the image to populate. If your photo is not this exact size, it will not appear on your microsite. If you need a free tool to resize your image, please refer to Canva.com.
Last, please make sure the 2023 President updates the President's Message on your microsite home page so that your members see consistency across the page.
Transitioning Teams
As we close out 2022, please remember that 2022 and 2023 teams should work closely to transfer knowledge and create a seamless transition for your members.
