LAST YEAR’S CONFERENCE INFO:

Many of our 2016 speakers and presenters generously provided their workshop presentations and handouts in digital format in order that they might be shared with conference attendees and the wider online audience. Our hope is that by making these materials available here, the learning and conversations will continue long past the three days we spent in Olympia and create opportunities for year-round growth and inspiration. Workshop presentations and handouts are organized below by conference track and workshop title.
