I have had several emails and question asking to add people to the listserv
who thought they were automatically added when they registered on the TMG
website. If you are registered on the website you are NOT automaticaly
registered on the listserve (I wish I could pull them together but we don't
have that capablity, for now).

TMG is a self join or leave list- so you can choose to be added or change
your email address if you switch providers.
Please let others in your program know this information. I would hate for
them to be left out of the FUN!!!

on the TMG Website under the MG resources drop down menu.

information to complete state and federal reports for program impacts and
continued funding.
Please send them in ASAP. We do also need the treasurer reports as well
(this is part of the annual report). If you need any assistance please email
me! All reports financial reports will be confidential.
