What are you looking forward to most at #MPRCCT2024?
I am so excited to experience this conference coming 'back home' to CT where CCAR started it. I think there are many things to celebrate each time people connect with the best intentions to learn and grow. This year we are celebrating Phil Valentine in a special way, as he is a source of wisdom in my everyday work, this conference hosts opportunities for our community to truly reflect on his role at CCAR and the larger recovery movement. I am excited to celebrate this!
