President's Message
September, 2026

Hello friends,

         

I am so excited for this upcoming season of meetings, networking, and building new friendships. This year, we want to focus not only on the important topics and changes impacting our field, but also on the continued growth of our association.

One of the things I value most about KADHA is the opportunity to learn from one another and share our experiences. As we look ahead, I am excited to explore ways to strengthen our organization, expand our reach, and build an even stronger sense of community.

It has been a privilege to develop relationships with so many of you, and I look forward to welcoming new members to our KADHA family. Together, we can continue to grow, support one another, and ensure our organization remains a thriving resource for years to come.

Thank you for being part of this amazing organization. Your involvement, ideas, and support are what make KADHA such a special community. I can’t wait to see familiar faces, meet new members, and share another year of learning, growth, and friendship together.

With gratitude,


Tara Taylor, RDH, CPR Instructor KADHA President

Sincerely,
