mid-year change in 2019 board

After several years’ tenure as officer of TSHRA, our chair, Alma Craig, has stepped down due to her retirement. Ms. Craig’s contributions, from the new design of our website to the creation of the HR forum, helped to strengthen our HR community. Under her leadership, our team embraced new ideas and projects. Alma will continue to serve as ex-officio for FY19, as well as volunteer web administrator and advocate for TSHRA initiatives. 

As per our association bylaws, the vice-chair will assume the office of chair for the remainder of the term and will serve the as chair the succeeding term. Our association is proud to announce that Suzy Retiz is our association’s new chair. Ms. Retiz has proven herself as a valuable member of our team and the executive committee wholeheartedly welcomes and supports her in this new role. We are very confident in Suzy's leadership skill and look forward to continuing the important work of the association.
Important update!
TSHRA's post office box number has changed, effective March 6, 2017. Our new address is: PO Box 13545, Austin, Texas 78711. We are also cleaning up our TINS information as there are some outdated mail codes. Suzy will be notifying agencies so that our members can alert their accounting departments. We will also provide this information on flyers, during our April meeting.  The Membership Form has been updated with the new address. Refer any questions to Treasurer or any TSHRA Board member.
