DCAHU's Communication Chair Bill Robinson compiled a brief update on things happening in our industry.

Letter from the President

I am excited and honored to work with my industry colleagues who are passionate about their careers and serving their clients through these rapidly changing times.  Now more than ever, we need to join together to inspire one another; work to educate our community as to the importance of working relationships with agents and brokers; and to create a valued presence and relationship with our legislators on the State and Federal level. 

As we embark on a new national rebranding of our association to the National Association of Benefits and Insurance Professionals (NABIP); our local

chapter will be able to truly represent our members the way it was intended. And, by doing so, we can help develop a stronger connection amongst one another to grow our presence as a leader in the community.

We are excited to be back in person! With the ever-changing new ways of forward thinking in our health insurance industry; our goal is to inspire and equip us as leaders to be better and do better. We feel a responsibility to strengthen our sense of community and move forward, together.

As a member, look forward this year to seeing more opportunities to connect with each other as we bring back the basics of our prestigious association. Taking what we learned in the past years’ with going virtual allowed us to find new innovative ways to offer more benefits to our members. Creating new hybrid experiences to learn, collaborate, network, advocate and participate as a community of leaders in our insurance industry moving forward. In keeping with our mission to improve its members’ ability to meet the health, financial and retirement security needs of all Americans through education, advocacy, and professional development; we are eager to increase your access to national, statewide, and local Member Benefits this year.

I look forward to serving you,

Rosamaria Marrujo
