All,

In the past several days, We have been contacted by many departments concerning departmental travel and training restrictions due to the COVID-19 virus. Also, in recent days, Governor Cooper and the CDC have issued orders limiting gatherings of people to hopefully stop this virus from spreading. As a result, on Friday, March 13th, the NCHIA Board had an emergency meeting concerning the NCHIA Spring Training Conference in Hickory.

Unfortunately , given the circumstances we all face, the board has made the decision to cancel the NCHIA Spring Conference in Hickory. If you paid by PayPal, you will automatically be refunded your fees. If you paid by check, please email our Treasurer Derek Moore at derek.moore@carteretcountync.gov to request how you would like your refund to be handled.

The NCHIA Board worked very hard this year to have an excellent training agenda. In the weeks to come, your Board of Directors will work with our presenters so that they can be at our fall conference. The fall conference will be at the Courtyard Marriott in Carolina Beach, NC from October 27-30. Registration and the agenda for the fall conference will be online soon.

We are sorry for this cancellation, however please support your North Carolina Homicide Investigators Association by attending the fall conference this October. Looking forward to seeing everyone at the beach and as always, stay safe.
