ECHO is glad to bring experts to the table in our Community Impact Gatherings. This does come at a cost to us, so we are requesting a $25 registration fee per person to help offset the costs to ECHO so that we can continue to bring professional insights from people around the country.
If you or your organization are unable to cover your registration fee and would like to attend, please email [email protected] with a request for assistance.
