VIDBE-Q Volume 69 Issue 1
I'd like to welcome and congratulate our newly elected leadership to
DVIDB. Adam Graves will be serving as President, Beth Jones as President Elect,
and Susan Brennan as Secretary. Newly elected Directors include Belinda
Rudinger, Karen Carl, Patricia Camarillo, Kathleen Farrand, Hilary Travers, and
Paige Furbush. Thank you all for running and for serving on our board. I wish to
also offer my most sincere appreciation to Nicole Johnson for her support as Past
President. Her leadership has been invaluable to me personally and to advancing
the mission of DVIDB. Thank you for your guidance and your outstanding
commitment to the Division!
The DVIDB Board is excited to announce our 2024 award winners. The
Division grants five awards to amazing candidates in our field who are nominated
by their colleagues. DVIDB's Awards Committee uses rubrics to independently
score and determine award winners. This year's award winners are exceptional
members of our field, making important contributions and improving the lives of
students with visual impairments and their families. Congratulations for your
achievement!
