Midwest

Greetings, and welcome to the Midwest Chapter!

Hello, my name is Kevin Chau and I am President of the Midwest Chapter. Welcome to what we affectionately call the "MidBEST" Chapter!

I work closely with the rest of the Chapter Leadership team to create professional development and educational opportunities for TDM professionals in the Midwest. Our Chapter is comprised of 100-plus members and growing, spanning across 12 US states and one Canadian Province of Ontario. While the geography is vast, we pride ourselves in creating a collaborative and supportive environment for peer-to-peer discussion and idea exchanges.

A few examples of our past achievements include winning ACT Chapter of the Year in 2022 and hosting webinar in Fall of 2023 on TDM in the Midwest: Best Practices, Policy and Programs.

We are excited to host another Midwest TDM Webinar in January 2025! We have a fantastic lineup of panelists, so stay tuned for registration information!

I hope you join us and get involved!

Kevin Chau, 
Midwest Chapter President
