Call for Proposals
Call for Proposals Open
February 14 - March 29
The heart of our National Conference lies in our conference sessions. We are on the hunt for compelling proposals that will captivate and engage our attendees. These proposals should offer valuable insights and practical solutions, spot emerging trends and innovative ideas, and amplify voices from the field. Conference sessions are the core of our event schedule. We are seeking proposals that engage attendees, provide insights and solutions, identify trends and innovations, and elevate voices from the field in a variety of tracks.
