Constance Thomas
Title:   
Chair
Organization/Affiliation:

Also, the replay of the webcast is now available.  The session that I told you about where we were able to demand that our voices be heard is below in the Plenary Session - click that link - give your name and email and you will be able to view it.  What these community leaders have to say is so vital and clearly another reason why we must be a part of this work group panel.
