We are once again hosting two conferences, one digital and one in person. Our digital conference in February will explore the same theme in an online setting. Then, in June, in honor of our fortieth anniversary, we are hosting our first bi-national conference at the border of Mexico and the United States. Both the digital and in-person gatherings promise to be enlightening, entertaining, and engaging!
