Dear Members,
I hope that this month’s news finds you and yours safe and in good health.
The hyacinth pictured above is one of nature’s true spring beauties that I
surprisingly found in my front yard this week. Let’s enjoy the little
things when they present themselves.
March came in like a lion and continues to roar at us from all points of
our world. This has become a most unsettling time for everyone. First
concern is family, then employment and thirdly MCANJ. I completely
understand were priorities are at this time.
With the current COVID-19 situation I know you are inundated with email, so
I am not going to reiterate what information has already come to your
office or home desk.
Instead I want to share some *good news *with you all.
*#1. *With the unfortunate cancellation of our Annual Education Conference,
several members contacted me regarding their need for specific CEUs within
short dated time periods. First, let me remind you of information shared
23 March through your County Advisory Board members;
“The Division will waive the late fee for anyone due to renew on April 30,
who needs to utilize the 6-month grace period to renew their
certification. You can share that information with your membership. Once
we are able to evaluate the full impact of the closures and cancellations
on our licensees, we hope to issue some more comprehensive guidance.”

*#2.* *We shall be conducting MCANJ 2020 Webinar Conference!* Please see

applied to DCA and IIMC for credit approval and await their responses (as
of this writing, 27 March at 10:15 am). Please join us for some
interesting sessions and activities to electronically network while
maintaining our 6 (six) feet of social distancing.
