[RWG] PCA: Bimonthly Meeting for Nov. 9, 2011 (Arlington, VA)

[Olivia Kwong]

---------- Forwarded message ----------
Results of the Plant Conservation Alliance survey from earlier this year 
are now available in a report at 
www.bgci.org/usa/PCAProgress<http://www.bgci.org/usa/PCAProgress>.  From 
here, you can also check out an appendix that contains examples of how 
respondents from public and private sectors are supporting the six 
different strategies of the PCA National Framework.

Thanks to everyone who provided time and input on this important subject. 
Nearly 400 people responded to this survey, and it has provided valuable 
information to guide the work of PCA and help connect the plant 
conservation community in the U.S.

One of the recommendations from the survey was to provide easy access to 
join in upcoming PCA meetings.  To begin to address this, we're testing a 
new call-in/webinar access option for the November 9th PCA meeting, which 
will be held at 9.30am Eastern.  We'll be discussing results of the 
survey, and next steps for the National Framework during this meeting, so 
I hope you'll join us.  To join in, follow the instructions below.
