• Educating elected and appointed officials to work in cooperation with fellow board members to promote a stronger community through public parks, recreation and conservation

IAPD organizational strengths include, but are not limited to:• Orientation and training programs for citizen board members• Citizen advocacy initiatives that direct and draw on the power of individuals to educate policymakers on issues of vital importance to the mission of park, recreation and conservation agencies• Educational materials such as Illinois Parks & Recreation magazine, books and newsletters, a dynamic website, in-depth and challenging educational seminars and annual conference• Technical assistance that helps member agencies increase their efficiency, meet their goals or acquire more funding• More opportunities for member agencies to save costs on such budget items as utilities, insurance and other operational expenses

The IAPD will continue to achieve these results in a fiscally responsible manner that assures the association’s viability and makes membership a cost-effective necessity.

Are you overwhelmed with

all that you've been putting

you know what you need to

do in order to be successful

at work, in a relationship,

with your life - but you are

just putting if off? Many

people are constantly tired

because of what they DO,

but putting off what-you-

know-you-should-do is

usually more exhausting,

more debilitating than hard

work, right? If you can't find

the time for this session,

perhaps THIS is the session

you need!
