Do you know about your state or provincial Learning Forward affiliate organization? If you aren’t already actively involved with the affiliate that serves your area, visit www.learningforward. org/about/affiliates.cfm to explore this opportunity to engage at a deeper level with the organization. State, regional, and provincial affiliates vary in the kinds of activities they use to connect learning leaders. Some hold annual conferences or learning institutes, others offer newsletters or resources to place professional learning information in a more local context. One thing affiliates have in common: They are all eager to hear from the educators they exist to serve.
