Dear CSTEP/STEP Project Directors:

As STEP and CSTEP celebrate our 25th Anniversary, the work APACS undertakes on behalf of CSTEP and CSTEP programs and administrators including professional development, programmatic advancements, and advocacy efforts continues to add value to the field for STEP and CSTEP professionals. The Association of Program Administrators for CSTEP and STEP (APACS) was formed in 1997 by STEP and CSTEP professionals to advance equity, access, and excellence in STEM fields and the licensed professions throughout New York State. Today, this professional organization remains vital to the development of STEP & CSTEP Programs and staff.

We invite you to be involved with APACS this year and be a part of the growth and impact of APACS endeavors. The continued success of APACS is connected to your active membership. Your dues provide numerous benefits, which include the following:

• Annual APACS Meeting & Conference held June 6–8, 2012 in Albany, NY.
  
  
• Organizing and coordinating essential advocacy efforts with key elected New York State officials to ensure continued funding for our programs.
  
  
• Professional development workshops during the Statewide STEP and CSTEP student conferences.
  
  
• Enhanced APACS websites (APACS.org and stepforleaders.org) to provide resources and keep abreast of statewide developments affecting STEP & CSTEP.
  
  
• Fellowship funding for scholarly research related to STEP & CSTEP.
  
  
• Voting privileges at the APACS Annual Meeting/Conference to make decisions on key initiatives.
  
  
• Establishing a statewide application fee waiver for STEP & CSTEP students applying to undergraduate and graduate programs.
  
  

There is strength in numbers, and your membership provides APACS with the support needed to continue representing our programs, and provide the professional development and increased visibility that our programs deserve. Our goal is to reach 100% - with membership from ALL STEP and CSTEP Programs

The deadline for 2012 membership dues is Monday April 30, 2012. Make checks payable to APACS, Inc. and mail with completed form to the address on the Annual Dues Form. We look forward to your membership in 2012.

Sincerely,

Shanna Crump-Owens, Membership Committee Co-Chair
Francesca Berrouët, Membership Committee Co-Chair
