RHA Info

Conferences are a great way to enhance some of your leadership skills! To attend a conference, one must go to a RHA meeting and get an application for the specific conference. Fill in the application and hand it in on time to the RHA office so that the ICC/NCC (Illinois and National Communication Coordinator) can go through the application. There will be an interview and after deliberation with advisors, the delegation for each conference is picked and announced to RHA!
Going to conferences is an experience of a lifetime! We encourage all students to attend at least one so that they can gain the experience! Check out these different organizations and get involved!
