Look for it in your inbox or on the NCATC website under “Newsletters”.

At a minimum, 30 minutes will be peer-to-peer, free flowing conversation of sharing, listening, learning, asking questions and building a stronger community around this focus area.

Bring your “What I Have” and/or “What I Need” mindset to share. The goal will be to sustain these problem-solving ideas, relationships built, and conversations beyond our 60-minutes together during our Quarterly Drop-In.
