Trinity communicates with its users through a mass email system referred to as the “listservs”. A user may send an email to one (or more) of the listservs, and it will be distributed with the appropriate group of people after administrator approval. Common listservs can be found below, as well as instructions for moderating listservs.
When emailing a listserv, please write your message the way you want it to appear when distributed. The list administrators do not edit or repeat messages.
