Welcome

We are excited to see you at the 2023 Directors’ Days. This is a time for everyone to come together to reconnect and strengthen relationships that help support you in the difficult work you do. These two days will provide the opportunity for us to train together and explore ways to increase access for all survivors and victims. We will also provide information to support you in managing your grant funds and build a common understanding of our funding requirements.

We hope that these days will bring value for you and your programs. See you there!
