Words from a Past Participant

"I really enjoyed the session. It was a great chance to connect with others who are doing similar work. Having that space to collaborate, share ideas, and talk through challenges was super valuable. I also came away with a few insights into funding opportunities I hadn't come across before, which was a big bonus. Definitely worth the time!"
