Every fall, NCLR Affiliates come together at one of our four regional convenings across the country. These meetings give members of the NCLR Affiliate network an opportunity to share what we’ve been working on over the past year, as well as learn from each other on how to strengthen the programs we have in store for the future.

This year, participants engaged in discussions and presentations on a range of issues from health policy to housing and more. Below are highlights from this year’s meetings.
