We would like to thank all of our attendees for coming to our first Advocacy Conference in April. It was a huge success, connections were made, and much was learned!We would also like to extend a warm thanks to all of our amazing presenters. Their time and dedication is so appreciated, and now they are providing their conference notes for our reference in continuing our advocacy work for our children.
