Once a year, leaders and practitioners in state and local government relations gather to discuss current and emerging trends, best practices and tricks of the trade.
This year, due to COVID-19, this meeting will take place virtually. Through an interactive virtual platform, we will conduct sessions, discussions, and networking opportunities to help you navigate your SGR work through COVID-19 and beyond.
Our format will be a couple of hours spread out over a couple of days.
No, but members receive a discount on their registration fee.
