Plenaries, Special Awards, and Closing Luncheon
Plenary sessions, mini-plenary sessions, and the closing luncheon provided an opportunity to hear nationally recognized speakers share their knowledge and experience and served as a catalyst to protecting children, promoting healthy families, and preserving communities. The mini-plenary sessions addressed topics related to the Conference theme. The special awards honored the recipients of the Ray E. Helfer, MD Award and the Vincent de Francis Award, as well as the Jolly K. Award and the Juanita Chavez Award, both from Parents Anonymous® Inc.
