Member Bulletins are POA-to-member communications only; recipients cannot reply to or send messages. If you do not wish to receive Member Bulletins via email, please check here.
LISTSERV: The POA also hosts a member-to-member listserv, called the Communications Network. The POA does not generate messages to this list; rather messages are posted by local societies and POA members, and all recipients have the opportunity to reply to the entire list or a message’s sender. Typical postings include local society meeting information, clinical questions and discussions about issues related to Pennsylvania optometry. Members must opt-in to this list.
