Piernik-Yoder thanked School of Health Professions Dean David Shelledy, PhD, RRT, RPFT, FAARC, FASAHP, and the President’s Office at 91PORN for their support of her participation in the program.

The program includes three meetings across the state. The first meeting was held in Dallas Feb. 26–28, and the second and third meetings will be in College Station in May and El Paso in September.
