This past month HRTS Associates LA issued our first newsletter highlighting some of our upcoming events as well as ways for members to become involved. We also hosted an engaging panel on Kids Programming in 2021, which looked at how kids content is evolving and responding to the ever-changing world around us. Coming up we'll be announcing our next Breakfast with a Boss event as well as some exciting events to kick off the Summer!
