Urgent President's Message: Coronavirus Update
 
 
Hello ASID Illinois Members, 
 
As interior designers and industry professionals, our core values focus on health, safety, and the welfare of the public. At ASID Illinois, our top priority is the well-being of our members. After continuous monitoring of the rapidly escalating conditions of the Coronavirus (COVID-19), we are faced with choices we’ve never encountered before. As we see it, an overabundance of caution is a must; therefore, we are cancelling all events, peer group meetings, and CEU events for the foreseeable future. 

Cancelled/Postponed Events: 

3/18    March Business of Design Lecture Series
3/29   The Well Conference - National 
4/22   Capitol Day 
4/23   Tribune Tower Cocktail Party 
5/21   Hotel Hop

In the interest of keeping our Administrator, Janel Hyland, and her family safe, the ASID Illinois office will be closed until further notice. Janel will still be reachable by email or phone while working from home.

We ask that you please take all essential measures as recommended by the CDC to protect yourself and your family. You are important to us, and we want all of you to be safe and sound. 

Our hearts and thoughts go out to those who have been affected by this virus and we greatly appreciate the healthcare workers who are on the front lines working towards containment. Let’s all pull together, do what’s right and necessary, and help those around us who are elderly or have underlying health issues that place them at a greater risk. 

We encourage you to keep in touch with each other through our ASID Illinois Peer Group Facebook group 
 
Remember, we are the ASID Illinois family and we will pull each other through this. 
The health and safety of each and every member of our community is of the utmost importance. 

If there is anything I can do to help, please feel free to reach out to me directly.
