The CSRT has created a new on-line Newsletter to circulate information on CSRT activities, achievements and information of interest to the membership. This newsletter will be available on a monthly basis.

This initiative is part of a mandate by the Board of Directors to transition the Canadian Journal of Respiratory Therapy from an information-based tool to a knowledge-dissemination vehicle. The CJRT will be distributed separately to all members.

The CSRT Newsletter can be viewed at: http://www.csrt.com/en/publications/newsletter.asp 

Paper copies of the newsletter will be sent to individuals who do not have an email address. For those wishing a paper copy mailed to them, please contact Rita Hansen, rhansen@csrt.com,  800-267-3422 ex. 223. Please forward any announcements or items of interest to rhansen@csrt.com
