September President's Message

Dear Members and Friends of CASIA,

Fall has arrived and we are settling back into our schedules! As the President of CASIA, I cannot emphasize enough the significance of getting involved in our association. CASIA serves as a cornerstone for professionals in our industry, providing an invaluable network of resources, expertise, and support. Thank you to all of our long term, loyal members! You are what makes our association productive, valuable and a great place to invest our time. If you are not a member of CASIA yet, I encourage you to take the leap!

By joining CASIA, you become part of a community that is dedicated to the advancement and success of its members. This is more than just a membership; it is an opportunity to be at the forefront of industry developments, to influence change, and to grow both professionally and personally.

Active participation in CASIA events is crucial. These events are designed to keep you informed about the latest trends, technologies, and regulatory changes that impact our industry. Attending these events not only broadens your knowledge but also connects you with other professionals who share your interests and commitment. These connections can lead to new business opportunities, partnerships, and in many cases lifelong friendships. The insights gained and the relationships built at these gatherings are invaluable assets that can significantly enhance your business and career.

Taking an active role within CASIA allows you to give back to the industry that supports us all. Whether it's through volunteering, joining a committee, or contributing to discussions, your involvement helps shape the future of our profession. It provides a platform to share your experiences, voice your concerns, and collaborate on solutions to the challenges we face. Together, we can drive innovation, uphold high standards, and ensure a prosperous future for all members.

Joining CASIA and participating actively in our events is a strategic move for any professional in our field. It opens doors to a wealth of knowledge, fosters meaningful connections, and empowers you to make a real impact. I encourage each of you to take this step, get involved, and experience the myriad benefits that CASIA has to offer.

Our October Monthly Membership Meeting will be held on October 17th at Eli's on Whitney in Hamden from 5:30-7:30pm, and I encourage everyone to register now. It’s a great opportunity to actively participate and reap the benefits of membership!

I need your opinion on future meetings! Please take a moment to complete our survey on where you’d like us to hold our monthly meetings going forward. Your feedback is critical in helping us make these gatherings more convenient and accessible for everyone.

Thank you for your continued support and engagement with CASIA. I look forward to seeing you all at our October Meeting!

Sincerely,

Dana Klesh
CASIA President
