We'll be back in your inbox with the MHOA Weekly Newsletter a little earlier than usual next week, on Wednesday 11/26 instead of Friday. Many MHOA staff members are taking time off next week and during the month of December. Please reach out early if you know you need assistance with something! The most efficient way to get in touch is via our Contact Us form which goes to several staff members. The last 2025 newsletter will be Friday, Dec. 19, and the first one of 2026 will be on Friday, Jan. 9.

Some of the photos from the conference landed in our inboxes this morning, so we're sharing a few here! Thank you to the team at Paper City Photography for the great images! The top photo was taken as our 2025 Annual Meeting of the organization wrapped up and includes many MHOA members! Bottom left, (L to R), Rae Dick (Immediate Past President), Matthew Brennan (Treasurer), Howard Koh (Keynote Speaker), Amy Donovan-Palmer (Secretary), Melissa Ranieri (Vice President), and Timothy McDonald (President). Bottom right (L to R), Timothy McDonald, Bonnie Heiple (Commissioner, Massachusetts Department of Environmental Protection), Robbie Goldstein (Commissioner, Massachusetts Department of Public Health), and Melissa Ranieri. 

Today is the deadline to complete conference evaluations! Continuing education hours will be uploaded to MHOA profiles. If you're missing something, give us until after Dec. 1 to reach out. Attendees should check your email for the evaluation link and complete them ASAP. Headshots taken at the conference will be sent in the next week or two, and some presentations are uploaded at the link below.
