The conference provides a great opportunity for attendees to participate in information-packed workshops, listen to thought provoking speakers, view exhibits, and engage in unparalleled networking opportunities with many neighborhood advocates. The one thing all attendees have in common is their interest in improving Wichita neighborhoods. As a part of a community, wherever you work, live, or play, your neighborhood is a central part of your life and deserves your attention.

As we begin another conference, please join us as we work together in realizing that the future of Wichita and Kansas lies in the success of our neighborhoods and in the faith of those who strengthen them.
