Welcome
Central Florida President Update
All,
What a great time to be part of this chapter! We have two fantastic events coming up, and I want to make sure every one of you has them on your radar.
🏆 First up — Safety Champions Conference | May 28, 2026
Our chapter is proud to be supporting the Safety Champions Conference on Wednesday, May 28th, 2026, right here in Orlando at the Marriott Downtown, 400 W. Livingston Street.
This is exactly the kind of event that reminds me why I love being a safety professional — a room full of people who genuinely care about making workplaces and communities safer. Come for the learning, stay for the fellowship, and leave with some CEUs and a full stomach!
📍 Marriott Downtown Orlando
400 W. Livingston Street, Orlando, FL
📅 Wednesday, May 28, 2026
✅ Fellowship • Learning • Food • CEUs
❤️ Then join us for our Chapter Meeting | June 1, 2026
Just a few days later, on Sunday, June 1st, we are hosting an incredible presentation in partnership with the American Heart Association — Greater Orlando.
Oriana Cardin, MPH and Heather Maloney from the AHA will be walking us through sudden cardiac arrest awareness, Cardiac Emergency Response Plans (CERPs), and — my personal favorite part — a hands-only CPR demonstration. No prior CPR experience needed. This one is for everyone.
As safety professionals, we talk about emergency preparedness all the time. This is a chance to practice what we preach — and walk away more confident that if something happened right in front of us, we’d know what to do.
Two great events. Two chances to learn, connect, and grow together. I hope to see you at both!
Take care of yourselves and each other,
Josh
