Greetings,
Every two years, the SPAN Parent Advocacy Network brings together parent leaders from across New Jersey for our Parent Leadership & Advocacy Conference—a day dedicated to skill-building, networking, and celebrating the vital work of advocacy. While much may have changed since our last gathering, one thing remains constant: SPAN’s unwavering commitment to supporting children, youth, families, and professionals throughout the state.
This year’s conference will feature thought-provoking speakers, dynamic breakout sessions, and powerful personal stories from youth leaders developing self-advocacy skills. Whether seasoned advocates or emerging leaders, attendees will gain invaluable tools and inspiration to continue championing the needs of infants, toddlers, children, and youth across systems of education, childcare, healthcare, child welfare, and juvenile justice.The conference will also feature an exhibit hall and networking lunch. Sessions will be offered in Spanish to maximize accessibility and inclusivity.
We invite you to support this impactful event in a meaningful and visible way. With a variety of sponsorship and exhibitor opportunities available, you can showcase your commitment to families, advocacy, and SPAN’s statewide initiatives.
