NCPC Email Listservs Moving to Google Groups

NCPC maintains several email listservs. Over the next few weeks, NCPC will be moving  these listservs to Google Groups. We are doing this for several reasons including ease of use for the listserv administrators and for subscribers. We are also moving for cost reasons. Google Groups is a free service, and every penny we save on administrative costs is a penny we can use to provide our members, friends and supporters with the programs and services you have come to expect from NCPC.

Subscribers will receive a notification when each group is created. You may be asked to accept the invitation by clicking on a link in the email, or you may be notified that you have been added to the group. Please follow any directions in the welcome email. We appreciate your support and continued interest in our organization.
