September means the busy meeting season is upon us. Are you going to: Texas MHA‘s, Indiana MHA’s or the NYHousing Association‘s meetings? Please stop and say hi before or after my presentations there. August brought new records here at MHMSM.com (MHProNews.com). Thanks for “voting” us #1 with your time, laptops, computers, mobile devices and browsers.
With this issue, we celebrate our 2nd anniversary. Our thanks to all who have made this milestone possible. Please stay tuned for the upcoming new features we will be unveiling here with our new format (MHProNews.com) in the very near future.
