Agency Profiles

As has been the practice for the past couple of years, a featured panel at the Atlanta conference will be a roundtable allowing attendees to share experiences, successes, and pitfalls. The roundtable allows ample time for attendees to ask questions of others and provides opportunities for future networking. To facilitate this panel, all agencies are asked to fill out a profile. The collection of these profiles will be distributed with registration material upon arriving at the hotel. This year's form may be accessed in Microsoft Word if you wish to fill it out electronically and return it via e-mail to elupher@crcmich.org or in Adobe Acrobat if you wish to download and print the form and return it via fax to 734.542.8004.

This year's hostess is Sam Marie Engle. She can be reached at 404-712-9692 or sengle@emory.edu.
