<p class="MsoNormal">Hello TPEP and Healthy Community Grantees,<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">As I shared on the TPEP webinar yesterday and will share again today, we are pleased to announce that Kim LaCroix accepted the Policy Specialist position in the Health Promotion and Chronic Disease Prevention section, just in time for the
2013 legislative session. Kim is already a vital part of the policy team serving as the nutrition coordinator, and will take that expertise and energy to support HPCDP and the PHD's policy work beyond nutrition. We are excited to have Kim as a resource for
HPCDP and our grantees. She will be an excellent support for you and your policy work. Kim will also be getting engaged with ICAA work as well so that both of us can offer help to you all.
