About the Event
The June 2003 conference brought the burgeoning support groups
for planning and building more livable communities together. We
examined the barriers to working together and determined how to
overcome them. Inspirational local projects were featured, and
project implementers told us how they did it.
The Program
The program included a dynamic mix of plenary sessions, keynotes,
breakouts and special pre-conference sessions. It included opportunities
for participants and speakers from across the state to interact
and network with each other. A complete
conference agenda with session descriptions and speakers is
also available.
