The networking aspect of it is very valuable, to spend about 15, 20 minutes talking with one of the fiscal managers from Washington State who is working through solving an issue that I have currently.

We do a lot of community of practice and that’s over Zoom, but actually getting face-to-face with other states and having that time to really talk, and discuss, and learn more from one another to how we can better serve children in Part C nationwide.

I really enjoyed the session on “First In, First Out,” where we learned more about the proper disbursement of funds.

This is one of the best conferences I’ve been to. I like that it’s smaller.

I feel better prepared for our DMS, which is just around the corner.
