Scope and Contents

Regional conferences, held in the year prior to a national conference, serve as a forum for delegates to convene, share ideas, and discuss the national emphasis and proposals. Conferences invite speakers to address the chosen theme of the conference and host discussion groups around those themes. Reports and minutes may contain updates from local associations or recommendations for communities. Materials also address planning of conferences, additions or changes to governing documents, lists of delegates and budgets and finance. Program and discussion emphases focus on economic and financial conditions faced by members and associations, unifying associations through a national program and purpose, the role of religion in the local associations and international work and global relationships.
