Join Us for a Powerful Spring Gathering!
Last fall, we united around the essential role of advocacy and leadership in an ever-evolving educational landscape. Now, as we move through the 2024-25 school year, our spring gathering is a vital opportunity to reflect, recharge, and strategize for the challenges and opportunities ahead as we continue building inclusive, student-centered environments where each student feels a sense of safety, belonging and value.
This event is more than a conference—it’s a time to connect with fellow leaders, celebrate successes, and gain fresh insights that will strengthen our collective impact. Bring your successes, innovative strategies, and lessons learned—we want to celebrate and grow together! In addition, we’ll hear key updates and recommendations from our education partners, equipping us with valuable insights to guide our work forward.
Come ready to share, learn, and leave inspired to make an even greater impact. We can’t wait to see you there!
