Here is a copy of the previous announcemnt:

Dear   HRA Member,

The HRA Board of Directors is excited to propose a new name for our Association.  Your vote is needed to make it happen! 

In accordance with the name change from Holographic Repatterning to Resonance Repatterning, we have been considering what the new name of our Association should be. 

The Board has reviewed all the suggestions put forward by members, and we have discussed this extensively.  We now have a name to propose to you.  In order for us to officially implement this name change, we need to have a yes vote from more than half of our members, so YOUR VOTE IS NEEDED.

DRUMROLL, PLEASE!  The proposed new name is:

Repatterning Practitioners Association (RPA) 

We recommend this name for the following reasons: 

This new name accurately reflects our status as repatterning practitioners, but also creates a separate identity from the Resonance Repatterning Institute.  

This new name represents all of us  - we are all repatterning practitioners.  It empowers the Association to fulfill its mission of supporting all members in having successful practices.  We can support members who have completed certification and may use the name "Resonance Repatterning" on their materials as well as student practitioners. It establishes a separate identity from the Resonance Repatterning Institute and gives us - and you - freedom to create events and materials represent all of us.  
 

It is easy to pronounce and to abbreviate.

 The presence of an official Repatterning Practitioners Association may serve to deter anyone who is not actually part of our Association (meaning not using the Resonance Repatterning system) from using the term "repatterning" to describe their work.   

This name change will help to maintain an appropriate separation of our membership organization (HRA) from the Resonance Repatterning Institute (RRI).  As a non-profit 501(c)(6) trade association, the HRA's mission is to support students and practitioners in the successful professional practice of Resonance Repatterning.  This is separate from the Resonance Repatterning Institute (RRI) whose mission is to provide education and training in Resonance Repatterning.  

Please login to record your vote today or at your earliest convenience.  The final date for voting is the November 30th 2007.  It's easy: just go to this link and vote:

We hope you like the name, and your comments and responses-whether yea or nay-are welcomed. 

Please contact the HRA office 1-800-685-2811 Ext 2  or e-mail us at president@hra.org.

Thanks for your support,

Your HRA Board of Directors
