Community benefit professionals from a variety of settings will share models and make new connections. An optional afternoon session will provide training for practitioners new to community benefit. There we will investigate the seven components of the community benefit process. Join us as we learn from each other, discuss solutions to community challenges, and share advice and ideas.
