Membership and Communications Committee
The Communications and Membership Committee works to support our members in the most efficient way we can from newsletters communicating our current PD, delivering an updated website with resources and events, to surveying our members to ensure that we are bringing school counselors in Maine the resources that they are looking for! This committee does a lot of behind the scenes organizing and collaborates mostly through email! We are always focusing on growing the membership of MESCA and in addition we are currently focusing on developing our new website and ensuring that there is a bi-monthly MESCA newsletter! Please email Kristin Tlili (committee chair) at ktlili@bangorschools.net if you are interested in joining this committee!
Professional Development and Social Media Committee
The Professional Development / Social Media Committee strives to provide relevant and current resources for School Counselors across the state and using multiple social media platforms in order to engage, connect and support School Counselors in Maine.
