Since the beginning of our organization 42 years ago we, as Tennesseans, have been on the forefront of medical innovation and leadership. This innovation and leadership can be attributed to HOSA’s commitment to preparing the best future health professionals in order to make a difference in our state and across the world. This year’s national theme is Define Your Purpose, and your Executive Council finds it fitting that almost 12,000 students in our home state are constantly making strides to make their purpose a reality. By engaging in clinical rotations, volunteering in your local communities, and leading peers within your schools, you are the reason Tennessee HOSA’s purpose shines as a beacon across our nation. Your purpose is what guides you down your path and here at the State Leadership Conference, our goal is for you to define that purpose and continue your journey to success. There is one thing we all have in common here in Tennessee HOSA: Our love for service. During this years State Leadership Conference, be sure to get plugged in with other agents of change as we support our new National Service Project, The National Pediatric Cancer Foundation. Here, you will have the opportunity to speak with other members about how their chapters are working to make a difference in their communities and to connect with health professionals who are joining the fight against pediatric cancer. As you spend time in Chattanooga, be sure to connect with other HOSA members and continue to build your network of future health professionals. During the State Leadership Conference, your Executive Council wants to meet you! Be sure to stop and say hello when you see us! We love meeting you and seeing the awesome work you are putting forth in HOSA. You all have helped define our purpose, and now we can’t wait to see you define yours. With all this being said, we hope you are as excited as we are for the 2019 Tennessee HOSA State Leadership Conference! Sincerely, Jake Kelley Tennessee HOSA President 2
