EXECUTIVE COUNCIL KICKED OFF!
NA-YGN has a new group in town. The Executive Advisory Council has been formed and had their first meeting in February. The group is made up of senior executives from a variety of companies, laboratories and organizations and was formed to serve as a sounding board for NA-YGN leadership to generate support and funding for the organization as a whole. If you would like to raise any items to this group that meets quarterly, please contact Amy Buu at buu(a)na-ygn.org<mailto:buu@na-ygn.org>.
