Feedback of over 250 participants helped to insure this conference as an annual event. Look for information on the 2003 conference.
The 2002 conference consisted of 25 sessions scheduled as two days of concurrent workshop tracks. The generosity and support of our sponsors allowed for the low participant cost. The low cost contributed to broad participation from the community, allowing busy professionals and advocates to build their own conference by attending selected workshops.
