Welcome to the HEA Chat Area

Directions

Please note that you must have Javascript installed and turned on to use the chat room software.

To use the chat rooms, go to the HEA Chat Forum below. Enter a nickname ("username") and click on the button with a check mark on it. Click on one of the chat rooms (see schedule below) and you're in. The Chat Room opens in a new window. The list of people in the chat room is on the left, everyone's comments are on the right, and a box on the bottom is where you enter your remarks (click on "Send" when you're ready to send your remarks to the chat room). 

Usernames are not saved—you do not need to remember it for your next chat session. You can type in a short "profile" of yourself if you want. Only the Moderator should type in a password.

We need people to "moderate" the parent/family chat, currently scheduled for 9 P.M. ET on Sundays. All you need to do is log in, welcome folks as they join in, and remain in the chat room for that hour so people will know the chat room will be there every week. You can volunteer to moderate every week, every other week, once a month--we'll work out a schedule so the chat room is covered. Please contact Betty if you're interested.

Tell us about your chat room needs and desires. Use our Contact Form and put your comments in the "Your Message" section.
