2009 Conference Cancelled

Due to unexpected budget shortfalls, we have had to cancel this biennial program, which we had originally scheduled for early May 2009.

We remain hopeful that focused and strategic fundraising efforts in the coming year, combined with stabilization in the national and global economy, will make it possible to bring the conference back to life in 2010.

Meanwhile, please contact Brita Zitin with questions and feedback or ideas for the next conference.
