TO ALL IAMAW MEMBERS
DISTRICT 140 EFAP
ONLINE ZOOM WORKSHOPS IN FRENCH (UPDATE)
Dear Brothers and Sisters,
The first Zoom workshop in French, was scheduled for May 11, 2020. Unfortunately, we had no
members in attendance. Due to lack of interest, I have cancelled the workshops scheduled for Friday,
May 15 and Monday, May 18, 2020.
After a discussion with Jean-Marc Assaad of PsyMontreal, he has extended access to online blogs and
other resources for our members to use. These links provide information that you can access at your
leisure.
The links to these resources are below:
