It is hard to believe that another year has passed by so quickly. As 2011 comes to a close, I have been reflecting on my favorite IAWP event. The Annual Training Conference in Lexington proved to be another successful event. During the conference the United Nations held the first “all female” SAT (screening tests) and we welcomed several new affiliate organizations, including the UN Female Police Peacekeepers, to IAWP proving we are a growing organization on the international stage. For those who were not able to attend, I invite you to view photos on my blog and Chaplain Dow’s blog. Go to http://www.iawp.org/ and follow the links.
As I look ahead to 2012, IAWP has much to celebrate. I am very proud of the fact that Canada, in St. John’s, Newfoundland, will be the country to host the 50th Annual IAWP Training Conference. Our friends in Region 11 have been busy putting the final touches on this event and I hope you will consider making the journey to be a part of it. Personally, I can hardly wait.
2012 is also an election year for IAWP. For anyone wishing to find out more about this process please feel free to contact me at sandramartin@winnipeg.ca.
I have enjoyed meeting new IAWP friends this past year and I look forward to meeting many more. I hope you all enjoy the best of this holiday season. For all of those officers who are working over the holidays, be safe.
Happy Holidays and all the best in the New Year!
