CABHN is now on FACEBOOK!
This is an important tool that will allow us to post action alerts and other important opportunities in a more timely manner. Because CABHN Fever only comes out once a month, we often have to pass up a lot of information that would be very helpful to our members because it is time-sensitive and will expire before CABHN Fever reaches readers. This will allow us to post timely information on our facebook page. If you have any information you'd like us to post on facebook, let us know!
