As we approach the end of another successful year for the West Virginia Asthma Coalition, I want to take the time to thank all of our Coalition members, subcommittee chairs, our Executive Committee, and the other numerous volunteers and coworkers that help make this Coalition a success. As you learned from our last blog post, there are quite a mix of individuals that make this all possible – from the CDC, to the West Virginia Asthma Education and Prevention Program, and more. We certainly could not be capping off another year without each of you. We have great hopes for the future of our program as we move forward into 2012.
As we approach a time where we reflect on things gone by in 2011 and focus on the hopes of 2012, I am pleased to say that the WV Asthma Coalition has reached great heights. Our subcommittees have worked endlessly on developing new project proposals for 2012, and in reviewing initial ideas and outlines, I am excited to see the new avenues that we will begin to explore together. Taking current ideas and embracing new initiatives is a feat I see taking place in all of our subcommittee efforts, and I look forward to the outcomes.
As we face a new year of asthma challenges, I know that we are armed with a wonderful group of individuals that are committed to education and prevention for senior citizens, students, and individuals of all ages, races, and backgrounds — because together we are ”helping West Virginians with asthma breathe easier”. Thank you to those that serve as part of this wonderful Coalition and Happy Holidays to you and yours.
