November 30 - December 11

VSAE's traditional Silent Auction goes virtual this year! That means you can bid over multiple days from the comfort of your own home, office, car...wherever you are! As always, proceeds directly benefit VSAE's educational programming as well as a local charity. This year you'll be supporting Beacon Tree Foundation, an organization helping children battling mental and emotional health issues, a resource that is needed now more than ever. The excitement will culminate with a virtual Grand Prize Live Auction on Friday, December 11, where the highest bidder wins a 5-night Aruba vacation package! Check out the donation catalogue now. There's something for everyone on your list (and yourself!), from weekend getaways and golf packages to gourmet food and wine, and even power tools!

Ethics and Inclusion
in Challenging Times

In these times of pandemic and social unrest – and in light of a renewed awareness of inequities in our society – how can association leaders respond constructively, in ways that reflect their values and the mission and values of their association? This presentation will consider how associations can foster a sense of community that is authentic, increasingly diverse, and intentionally inclusive. Chad Weinstein, Ph.D., founder of Ethical Leaders in Action, will share specific practices for mitigating implicit bias.
