Networking Breakfasts
Take advantage of the opportunity to network on Thursday and Friday morning and meet new people who have similar interests from all over the country. It's time to escape the talking heads and talk to each other about the issues that are really on your mind. Share. Build community. Learn from your peers.
These breakfasts will be a place to check out new facets of advocacy and make new connections in the old. Experts and national leaders from the respective categories will be present to answer questions and make connections.
Don't miss this great opportunity to exchange ideas, contact information, and develop valuable relationships for 2012 and beyond.
