A MESSAGE FROM OUR PRESIDENT!
Dear PCACAC Members: It’s July 1, 2022 -- let’s do this! Thank you for your confidence as I continue the excellent leadership of James B. Massey, Jr. and Rebekah LaPlante, with the unending support of Rosemary Martin Edwards, Libby Weith, Melisa Hypolite, Lynn Lyon-Vaiden (our Executive Assistant), Mark Polakow (our web/tech coordinator) and all of the PCACAC Board members. Much work has been done over the past two years to help PCACAC remain a strong and consequential association dedicated to serving students, families and admission professionals throughout our region, nationally and the world. We cannot thank our membership enough for your partnership, passion and persistence in the face of a global pandemic. We survived -- and we thrived. I look forward to partnering with EACH OF YOU in our collective work. ALL are welcome in PCACAC. Please join us! Hoist the mainsail, colleagues. We’ve caught the wind and are off on the next leg of our PCACAC voyage. Anchors Away! All my best, Ann Marie A Message From Our Past President
Dear PCACAC Members: It has been my pleasure to serve as President of PCACAC and I count it as one of my true professional joys and highlights of my career thus far. It is because of the hard work of each and every one of our members that we have been able to have such a successful year. As I have always said, any one of you can sit in this seat as President of PCACAC, and I hope that you are inspired by the work that we do as a collective and that you think about doing so in the future! And as I also have often said, I encourage each of you to find that one thing that you can support within the organization and throw your full support behind that effort. Who knows, you may just find or feed your passion! Thank you to each of you for your support this year. As we prepare for the transition of the Presidency, I am excited to share a few updates and new appointments that we will certainly set the stage for the continued success of PCACAC in the coming year: New PCACAC Appointments - Beginning Summer 2022 Congratulations to each of the members above and a special thank you to them for answering the call to serve!

A Message From PCACAC LeadershipDear PCACAC Members: We are also horrified by the devastating and senseless shooting at Robb Elementary School in Uvalde, Texas. Violence anywhere threatens all of us everywhere. These horrific acts highlight the ugly challenges that we continue to face in America ― racism, hatred, and violent extremism. RESOURCES
