Meeting with Representatives

By Claire Lucas, National President-Elect

During WLA, state officers experienced the power of Washington D.C.

while learning how to better themselves as leaders. On the final day of the conference, the officers took to the Hill to meet with their congressmen and senators. There, HOSA leaders expressed the importance HOSA plays in their lives and the many benefits of HR 2946. This was a remarkable opportunity, as HOSA leaders and national leaders were in the same room discussing the same topic: healthcare. Senators and Congressmen were enthused to learn more about HOSA as it is preparing students to be the promising future of our health care system. State officers found it to be a true privilege to share the purpose of HOSA with our nation’s leaders on Capitol Hill.

2009 Washington Leadership Academy Activities September 19-22

By Mike Brode, National HOSA President

Participants worked tirelessly and challenged themselves for an exciting four days in our Nation’s Capital! Participants were able to learn how to better lead both their state and local affiliations through excellent instruction by members of TRI Leadership Development. HOSA leaders developed skills ranging from professionalism to how to develop quality goals to advance their state and chapter. Not only did the participants learn skills, but they also learned about their individual strengths and areas for growth. After attending the Washington Leadership Academy, HOSA leaders developed the necessary knowledge to be outstanding leaders for an exceptional HOSA year.
