The FALI Members Only Listserv through GroupsIO is a valuable resource for members to share important information and job referrals. Current FALI members are invited to join this group, and once approved, may post messages according to the rules below. While posts are moderated, it is simply for the sake of ensuring the rules are being followed. This also helps your email inbox from getting those multiple duplicate messages with the same response, or hundreds of holiday wishes. Click HERE to join the Listserv.
