    One of the lessons learned of 2025 is the value of community as an essential for resilience and finding solutions to problems in an uncertain environment. 

    Whether or not you normally make resolutions for the New Year -- this is one worth making: mark your calendars for 2026 and take time from your busy schedules to connect with colleagues here in the Virtual Communities. 

    Best wishes to all for 2026!
