NN4DA Annual Meeting Details
The NN4DA Annual meeting is less than a month away!
I look forward to seeing many of you in person and am excited about the content of our shared work. Feel free to share this note directly with authorizers in your state.
The NN4DA Annual Meeting 2024, is scheduled for October 20, 2024, from 12:30 pm to 4:30 pm; and on Monday October 21, from 8:30 am to 4:30 pm. We are also hosting an NN4DA Social Event on Monday night from 7:30 to 9:30 pm. We are meeting in the Westin Galleria in Houston, which is the same hotel as the NACSA conference. Events featuring NN4DA partners take place on Tuesday and Wednesday as part of the NACSA agenda.
Our meeting is designed to center on the needs of district authorizers. It includes a mix of sessions addressing the organizational development of NN4DA state partners as well as sessions featuring partner’s major work, accomplishments, and shared challenges and opportunities. You can review the NN4DA Full Agenda, and Agenda at Glance, and the NACSA full schedule online.
The meeting includes plenty of peer-to-peer networking and sessions exploring topics like state fee-for-service work, partnering with the local federal start-up grant program, research opportunities like the MIT Blueprint Labs, improving authorizing financial literacy, working with authorizing technology platforms, how to borrow materials and tools from your colleagues around the country, and more.
The NN4DA Annual Meeting is free to attend and is open to all authorizers and facilitators from our partner states, as well as district authorizers in other states considering joining the initiative. If you plan to attend any of the NN4DA events, please register here.
