    Chair’s Column | Introducing the 2019-2020 Health Law Section Leadership

    John H McEniry IV, Fagron North America, Fairhope, AL

    On September 1, the ABA Health Law Section (HLS) officially began the new 2019-2020 Bar Year.  With the new year comes a renewed sense of purpose and excitement for the leaders who serve HLS’s 10,000 lawyer, law student, and associate members.  For this Bar Year, HLS leadership will focus on innovation, particularly in the means by which we provide substantive content to our members, the means by which we communicate with our members, and the opportunities and avenues provided by the HLS for collaboration between members.  In the coming months, you will hear more about our efforts to offer products, services, and opportunities that better fit the needs and interests of our members.  We always welcome your comments and suggestions.

    For this inaugural eSource for the new Bar Year, I would like to introduce you to our 2019-2020 HLS leaders.  These volunteer leaders graciously find time within their busy professional and personal lives to contribute their talents and expertise to the ABA.  Please join me in welcoming our new leaders, as well as thanking both our returning and new leaders for their efforts on behalf of the HLS and its members.  Additionally, if you see an area of the HLS with which you would like to get involved, please contact HLS’s Director, Simeon Carson at [email protected].
