Communications Subcommittee
Our Goal
To serve as an information source for ICSEW members, perspective ICSEW members and state employees. To communicate information about ICSEW initiatives and activities to ICSEW members and share information from other state agencies and organizations that align with ICSEW's mission and values.
What We Do
We use our communications platforms to promote ICSEW events and initiatives, share news from the Governor’s office about policies and initiatives that impact state employed women.
The communications subcommittee executes these goals through timely updates to ICSEW’s website, articles shared on ICSEW’s blog, InterAct, and social media posts, and bulletins to subscribers on our GovDelivery list. The communications subcommittee also helps coordinate communication technology during virtual meetings.

With over two decades of HR experience, she has demonstrated an unwavering commitment to enhancing the lives of others in every aspect of their journey
TJ has been actively involved with the ICSEW for more than two years. She started her journey with ICSEW as part of a subcommittee for the annual conference, where she played a key role in media relations and marketing.
