Comments:
  • Great conference.
  • New content and new passion for me! I can't wait to see how we can fold this work into Health Child Care America.
  • Conference - very thought provoking - great networking - info-sharing opportunities.
  • Great conference! The planning shows! Nice locations and amenities, well-organized topics - but I especially liked the focus on communication. Thanks.
  • Congratulations on a well-organized meeting.
  • I am so pleased that I could attend this conference. I will return to Oregon inspired.
  • I would make the breakout sessions only 1.5 hours; I think 2 hours was too long.
  • The meeting provided opportunities to network with other states and panel discussions were very helpful.
  • This is one of the best meetings I have ever attended!
  • Only attended Sunday - Heard great things re: Sat. - Sunday Plenary and State Meetings well done!
  • One helpful idea to improve collaboration between speakers is to have a list of projects that are planned or active at that point for different coalitions and try to share between these coalitions the information. This will improve the networking between different coalitions.
  • The rooms were very cold. However, staff was responsive in making changes.
  • Make breakout sessions shorter so you can have 3 sessions.
  • This was the best conference yet. Thank you.
  • Unfortunately few medical societies came. It might have been better to attach to a national meeting of medical societies or get AMA as a cosponsor.
