The long term, ongoing EDI data-gathering & -analyzing genius of Tamar Myers (not in this pic) from TMU’s OVPECI was critical to our work.

Our Dimensions team at TMU worked very hard, with immense creativity & compassion, 2020-2023, to establish the federal Dimensions Program at TMU. Achieving Stage 2: Construction level recognition was a great result 😊
