The lifeblood of any nonprofit association is its membership. We have a new chapter who leads the nation in BDPA members.... BDPA Detroit. The chapter ... led by its president, Loraine Stewart-David ... continues to amaze others by its consistent growth. The chapter grew by over 27% in the past year as they continue moving towards the next milestone of having 300 members this year.
We continue to operate under the leadership of National BDPA VP-Membership Management Mildred Allen. Her team now includes Chad White (Dallas) and Judaea Lane (Memphis). Her efforts have allowed BDPA to continue to grow. She realizes that we need to work hard to keep membership growth and retention higher.
