MARC: Mid-America Regional Council

 

Regional Association of Public Information Officers

Next Meeting: At the next RAPIO meeting Co-chairs Leslie Ensign and Adam Crowe will lead an open discussion to learn what our membership wants to see in future meetings, trainings, and general directions in the future. Bring your thoughts about what things you feel RAPIO could help you address, whether it's technology issues personnel challenges.

The Regional Homeland Security Coordinating Committee's Training Subcommittee is currently allocating funds for future training for regional staff, so the time is ripe to let them know what will best prepare us to participate as reliable and professional colleagues.

RSVP: Lunch will be available to any who wish it by e-mailing Eliza Waterman, ewaterman@marc.org by Thursday, May 21, at a cost of $8 per person.


RAPIO Co-chairs:

  • Leslie Ensign, Director of Community Relations, Clay County, Mo.
  • Adam Crowe, Assistant Director, Community Preparedness, Johnson County Emergency Management

About RAPIO

The Regional Association of Public Information Officers (RAPIO) was formed in 2000 to give area PIOs an opportunity to share information, work cooperatively on regional issues and network with their peers.

Members meet monthly (usually on the fourth Friday of each month) at the Mid-America Regional Council offices, 600 Broadway, Kansas City, Missouri. The informal meetings are held over box lunches, and may involve a speaker or presentation, or may be casual exchanges between members.

Meeting notices are e-mailed in advance of each meeting to those on the RAPIO listserv. All local government employees who are full or part–time PIOs in the metropolitan area — and other local government employees who are regularly called on to serve in a public information capacity — are welcome to attend.
