*HALLWAY MEETING GROUPS
One of our favorite things and most beneficial parts of past conferences is often the time spent in the hallways in small groups where we can ask questions and share information.

One of the goals of this conference is to share information in small groups. The plan is to pre-designate groups of 8-10 people with experienced leaders, a mix of other experience levels, a mix from states, and a mix of family types, etc. The small groups will be able to discuss topics among themselves and then we will have the leaders of each group sit on a panel to discuss as a large group.
