AAJA Adds Denver As New Chapter

Dear AAJA Members:

AAJA is pleased to announce that Denver is now the newest chapter of the AAJA! We're a small group that spans print, web and broadcast, and like all media organizations, our members are facing some tough challenges in their careers. So we're excited to officially join the pantheon of AAJA chapters and be able to tap into the organization's network of expertise to offer our members support.

For decades, we've just been a collection of At-Large members (nothing wrong with that) without a central focus, so two years ago a core group got together and mounted a push to become a chapter. It was very gratifying (and humbling) for our members to return from the LA convention knowing that the chapter had been unanimously approved.

The AAJA-Denver Chapter thanks AAJA's board, and to AAJA-Denver's membership. Here's to a great partnership for the future!
