1999
I’ll always feel humbled to have been the president of such a select group of people dedicated to championing the rights of children. I am so very proud of the work of Pat Lehman and Valerie Lee who we were able to carry forward the momentum from the previous year’s work of Mike Fuller on the Fourth Grade Guarantee Forum with a video and workbook. We were able to launch our website, OSPAonline, in 1999 thanks to the dedication of Erich Merkle and Caven Mcloughlin. I am so very proud that the OSPA Crisis Committee had its humble beginnings as an ad hoc committee that year as well.
