Useful Links & Reading

I am providing links to access other Internet sites which may be useful (including colleagues and organizations). I, however, have no control over those sites and take no responsibility for the content or information contained on them.

The organizations who maintain these links may have rosters of their membership listed. These rosters are the responsibility of those organizations and their criteria for membership and inclusion. No endorsement by me as to the competence of any professional listed on those rosters is intended nor should be implied. I have also included some readings and blogs that some of you may find interesting.
