The 2022 Peer Relations Post Conference
will be held virtually on
Friday, March 25 ~ 9am-12pm PDT/ 12-3pm EDT
Given that we are all interested in peer relationships, the conference will primarily take place in Gather, with some portions carried out in Zoom. The conference is best attended via laptop/desktop computer (rather than mobile phone or tablet). Log in information and a basic Gather tutorial will be provided in advance of the conference.
We are maximizing our time together by fully packing the 3 hour schedule. However, we know that many of us would like to catch up with old friends and make new ones. We are allocating program-free time before and after the event for extended social interactions.
