Dr. Selena Cozart will facilitate this second annual meeting, which will include morning and afternoon sessions, with a midday break in between. It is free and anyone can attend as long as they bring a willingness to work, along with great ideas. Organizations are encouraged to send more than one representative. There are likely to be multiple workgroups that align with organizations’ missions.
