Have you submitted your Each One, Reach One story yet? Tell us how you were introduced to ATPE by Aug. 16 for a chance to win a $50 Starbucks gift card! Here's Hilda's story:
"After I stopped teaching in 2003 and took a few years off, I never thought about joining any organization. When I started substitute teaching in 2006, I met up with Norma Vega, a former colleague from Mission CISD. She told me that I needed to join ATPE because she believed that I would benefit in many ways by joining. I didn't think much about it because I had had a bad experience with the union I was a member of. She helped me every step of the way then as she does now. Every year I strive to get at least 10 members, but last year I had a goal, which she helped me achieve. [Hilda was ATPE's top recruiter in 2012-13! She recruited 104 members.] Thank you, Norma, for introducing me to the BEST organization in the state of Texas. I believe that if each one of us has contact with at least five people, we can sure speak to them about the protection, advocacy and resources that ATPE offers."
