From the Editor

The
outpouring of support and congratulations that followed
our special issue of the VOICE last month was stunning. As
you may know, the IAC does not have any paid staff (in
order to keep membership free and certification
affordable), so everything is done by dedicated
volunteers.  Messages such as these

were
immensely gratifying to receive:

Hi Barbra:  Great job getting the
IAC Voice back on track. The IAC has a wonderful opportunity
to position itself as the professional association of
choice.  Keep up the good work…I know how much time
it takes to produce a worthwhile publication. Cheers…Rey
Carr from
Peer Resources

To All Who Are Contributing to the IAC:
Please know that all the hard work and dedication
that you are doing for the IAC is GREATLY appreciated! 
With gratitude from Caterina Arends

Thank you
to everyone who wrote with support, suggestions and
offers to help.  It's your involvement that
makes this organization come alive!

In this issue
of the VOICE, we have a heartfelt farewell message from IAC Past
President (2003 – 2005) Barbara Mark.  And President Natalie
Tucker Miller, IAC-CC answers the most frequently asked questions
about the IAC – such as "What does the IAC offer me?". 
We also have a call for
nominations for the


Thomas Leonard Virtual
Assistant of Distinction award.  And contributing
writer Janice Hunter reminds us that beautiful coaching
moments are available any time.

And on a personal note,
please allow me a proud auntie moment by telling you that
the adorable girls in the "Coaching Moments" logo below are
my nieces!

I hope you
enjoy this issue of the VOICE.

Warmly,

Barbra Sundquist, IAC-CC
