Good evening FRID Members, 

RID has asked all Affiliate Chapters to gather feedback from their members about the potential changes from a member driven organization to a professional certifying organization. No decision has been made at this time. The feedback collected will be interpreted by the RID Board of Directors, which will then suggest ways in which the membership can explore either deepening our identity as member driven or as a professional certification organization.

To gather this feedback, FRID has created a brief four-question survey. Click on this link to take the survey: FRID Membership Feedback on Proposed RID Organizational Changes. The deadline to complete the survey is Saturday September 12, 2020.

Before taking the survey, please review the information provided by RID on the relevant issues.

• RID has published an organizational transition website, with an overview of the process and an FAQ page.
• Watch this video that provides background and rationale on the transition to a professional organization.
• Review the President's Report from the May 2020 Views.
• If you were not able to attend one of the Membership Town Halls in May, you may want to watch the recording from the May 12th Town Hall for additional information on the process and Board's perspective.

Thank you for providing your feedback!

Best regards,
