We can’t thank everyone enough for taking the time to attend this year’s conference. Every one of you is so important and plays a large role in the lives of so many.

We’re grateful to have this opportunity to come together, share and inspire, collaborate, and connect with one another.

We hope to provide you with the tools and resources you need to return to your home, school, child care, or wherever you may be and share this knowledge with others.

Remember to practice awareness and self care, slow down, and have intentional connections with others. Remember that every one of you, and the work you do is important, appreciated and remembered.

We can’t wait to all meet together again next year!

Miigwech ❤️

Alyssa Blask-Campbell provided us with a world of information this morning! I hope everyone is walking away feeling just a little more emotionally intelligent and encouraged to learn about how we can maintain and build that intelligence in the small moments of our day.

Alyssa also has books for sale at her table, so don’t forget to stop by and see what she has available!
