&lt;br/&gt;

&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;span class=&quot;tdescription&quot;&gt;Event Details:&lt;/span&gt; &lt;div class=&quot;description&quot;&gt;&lt;h2&gt;
	&lt;strong&gt;&lt;img alt=&quot;&quot; height=&quot;337&quot; hspace=&quot;4&quot; src=&quot;/attachments/wysiwyg/249/Conjoined_Twins.jpg&quot; vspace=&quot;6&quot; width=&quot;501&quot; /&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/h2&gt;
&lt;h2&gt;
	&lt;strong&gt;Leveraging local partnerships to land national attention: How a nonprofit told the story of conjoined twins&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/h2&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
	Richmond-based World Pediatric Project was founded in 2001 as International Hospital for Children, with the mission to link worldwide pediatric surgical, diagnostic and preventative resources to heal critically ill children in developing countries. In 2011, the case of Maria Teresa and Teresa Maria, now 18-months-old, gave the nonprofit organization the opportunity to partner with Children&amp;rsquo;s Hospital of Richmond of the VCU Health System to facilitate separation of the girls, who were were born sharing a digestive system and liver.&lt;br&gt;
	&lt;br&gt;
	Join us as Jennifer Curtis, APR, director of communications for World Pediatric Project, shares her experiences in telling this touching, sensitive story with national media, including the coordination of a TLC documentary on the case.&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
	&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;

&lt;span class=&quot;tspeaker&quot;&gt;Speaker:&lt;/span&gt; &lt;span class=&quot;speaker&quot;&gt;Keith Burton&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br&gt;
&lt;br/&gt;
&lt;span class=&quot;tdescription&quot;&gt;Event Details:&lt;/span&gt; &lt;div class=&quot;description&quot;&gt;&lt;div&gt;
	&lt;h2&gt;
		&lt;strong&gt;Effective Employee Communication: Our Place at the Table&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/h2&gt;
	&lt;div&gt;
		&lt;strong&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;br&gt;
		&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
	&lt;div&gt;
		Companies are putting more money and effort into their employee communication programs, and employee communicators are being more aggressive in pushing their leadership teams to see them as strategic consultants. As a result, employee communication has evolved from a state of sharing information to one of driving employee behavior by helping people understand how their work influences the success of the company.&lt;br&gt;
		&lt;br&gt;
		Join us as Keith Burton, president, Insidedge, details how communicators can successfully get senior management to value effective employee communication by sharing his experiences working with clients such as Covidien, ExxonMobil, NASA, Boston Scientific, American Airlines, the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), NATO, FedEx, IBM Corp. and Molson Coors.&lt;br&gt;
		&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;

			<title>President's Note: You Can't Spell April Without APR!</title>
			<description>&lt;div&gt;
	&lt;div&gt;
		&lt;div&gt;
			For many years, I wanted to earn my &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.prsa.org/Learning/Accreditation/&quot;&gt;Accredited in Public Relations (APR)&lt;/a&gt; credential, but the time never seemed right. There was too much going on at work. There were family commitments. There were other obligations. But in 2007, I realized that the timing was never going to be right. There were always going be obligations and commitments. So I decided that if APR was something that I was interested in achieving, then I should just do it. And I did!&lt;/div&gt;
		&lt;div&gt;
			&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;
		&lt;div&gt;
			If you have been considering going after your APR, there is no time like the present. In fact, PRSA National has designated April as Accreditation Month. As &lt;strong&gt;Anne Buckley&lt;/strong&gt;, PRSA Richmond accreditation chair, likes to say, &amp;ldquo;You can&amp;rsquo;t spell April without APR.&amp;rdquo;&lt;/div&gt;
		&lt;div&gt;
			&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;
		&lt;div&gt;
			Members can learn more about APR &amp;ndash; the PR profession&amp;rsquo;s only national post-graduate certificate program &amp;ndash; through a &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.prsarichmond.org/en/art/2822/&quot;&gt;series of special events&lt;/a&gt;. If you&amp;rsquo;re interested in pursuing your APR, PRSA Richmond is here to help with a &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.prsarichmond.org/en/art/2829/&quot;&gt;more streamlined accreditation process&lt;/a&gt;&amp;nbsp;to make it less time intensive for accreditation seekers and current APRs who participate in the process. Contact Anne at &lt;a href=&quot;mailto:albuckley@vcu.edu&quot;&gt;albuckley@vcu.edu&lt;/a&gt; or 804.828.6052 to learn more.&lt;/div&gt;

This initiative is the cornerstone of PRSA Richmond&amp;rsquo;s 2012 theme, &lt;strong&gt;&lt;em&gt;PRSA Serving RVA&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;. The Public Service Committee will review the applications next week and select one organization to support in 2012 in one of three focus areas: strategic planning, event management or a public relations tactic (such as media relations or social media). In addition, PRSA Richmond will be holding a free public relations workshop for area nonprofits in the fall. It&amp;rsquo;s not too late to get involved.

	&lt;div&gt;
		&lt;div&gt;
			(April 2, 2012) PRSA Richmond&amp;rsquo;s Public Service Committee has received 30 applications from local nonprofit organizations in the Chapter&amp;rsquo;s 2012 Nonprofit Alliance project.&lt;/div&gt;
		&lt;div&gt;
			&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;
		&lt;div&gt;
			Members of the Committee will meet in April to review the applications and select one winning organization. The nonprofits applied for professional PR assistance in one of three areas: strategic planning, event management or public relations tactics.&lt;/div&gt;
		&lt;div&gt;
			&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;
		&lt;div&gt;
			A team of PR professionals will be tasked with working with the selected organization on meeting goals defined in the application.&lt;/div&gt;
		&lt;div&gt;
			&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;
		&lt;div&gt;
			In addition, the Committee will plan a Fall workshop for local nonprofit organizations on PR Basics. Date and time to be determined.&lt;/div&gt;
		&lt;div&gt;
			&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;
		&lt;div&gt;
			If you would like to help with one or more aspects of the Committee&amp;rsquo;s work, please contact Glenn Birch, (804) 560-5664 or &lt;a href=&quot;mailto:glenn.birch@vacu.org&quot;&gt;glenn.birch@vacu.org&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;/div&gt;
